Xpost for non-Griffey nuts who still love some 90s awesomeness....

After a BGS submission, some ebay pickups, and a Vegas meet-up with goobmcnasty...I figured it was time to update the PC pic. Have a couple more, but ran out of stands!

One day when I buy a house I'll invest in a proper display area. For now, these normally sit in team bags properly stored in a graded card box out of the light. But that's no fun so they come out to play every now and then!

I'm still desperately looking for a 2016 Topps Dynasty with a unique patch on it. Doesn't have to match the ones above or be a 1/1, but it has to be a patch that is more than just a fun 4/5 color patch.

Beyond that, still hunting the following as top priorities:

Green Crusade
Red Crusade
2016 dynasty w/ logo/sleeve patch
98 Metal Universe PMG
1999 topps chrome fortune 15 ref
98 flair legacy row 1
Wonder years triple
Fleer brilliants 24k
99 ionix hologrhx
97 finest gold embossed ref
99 Finest Prominent Figures /70

Also, for those who didn't see it in the other threads, one of the recent pickups in .gif:

Some recent pickups...long overdue post, but I went to Spring Training in AZ this year for two days and had the opportunity to meet up with [MENTION=8906]RStadlerASU22[/MENTION]

we had a deal in the works, it was super easy to complete, and he even brought along some other cool stuff just to show me.

reminder of how many good peeps are on this board. thanks again Ryan for the deal.

anyways, here are the cards - some of the recent proofs / error cards that have shown up on eBay and COMC, which I've missed many of due to work / life stuff. really glad to add the 1997 Finest to my Piazza PC.

The stamping on this serial number is suspect.

All of the other 1/1s I've seen out of 1999 Ultimate Victory have been located much higher on the card. I believe this is an unstamped version that was given a serial number after the fact.

Be aware if you are planning to place a bid.

Here's a pic of the unstamped version:

Also, the font of the 1/1 looks off. Here are a few real ones:

It looks like the same card to me. That is a shame - these cards do not need the serial numbering at all to be incredibly beautiful and special! They should have kept it as the 1/1 non serial # version.

Anyone have a Ripken 1996 Fanfest Playing Card they want to sell me?

 

[jonebone]

Good call on that fake stamp for the Ripken, I agree 100%. I also think it's a shame because the card is beautiful looking on it's own.
