Oddball Issue - 2002 Upper Deck Collectibles Play Makers

[banjar]

I am snowed in this morning. I haven't found the motivation to shovel the walk yet, so I'm just sitting here drinking coffee and trawling the web for cards. Surprisingly, I just found an Alomar card for my PC that I'd never heard of before - the 2002 Upper Deck Collectibles Play Makers issue.

These "Play Makers" cards were packaged along with bobblehead figures from 2001-2003. From a few searches it seems that most of these were baseball, but other sports are represented as well. There is even a Ben Franklin card for some reason. TCDB has some checklists for some issues.

I haven't gone through all these checklists, but the 2002 baseball checklist is missing some cards. Just for the hell of it, here's what I come up with for the 2002 baseball set:

Pujols
Jeter

Sosa
Edgar
Mo Vaughn

Ichiro
Molitor
Bonds

Troy Glaus

and last but not least, the man the myth the legend himself...
Bret Boone!

There's also a HOF edition with these 5 players:

Berra
Reggie Jackson
Ryan
Musial
Banks

Today's update to FCB's most popular thread! I got the Alomar in the mail, a scan is below.

I had to buy the Mets 3-player set to get it, so I have Piazza and Mo Vaughn cards (and bobbleheads) left over.

I've never really looked into these because I assumed there was a checklist. I would like to get some, but the last thing I need is more bulky figurines in my basement!

Yeah. Does anyone want these Piazza and Vaughn bobbleheads? Or cards?

TCDB has checklists for 2001-2003. I think the 2002 checklists are now complete and correct, but haven't really looked at the 2001 or 2003 checklists.

What do they look like? Might be interested for my kid
