On a related note, apparently Eric Stuckenschneider and his wife made the Tonight Show for their wedding announcement, Peters-Stuckenschneider. I found this when trying to see if there were any other signed card images out there. I picked this up for $2 (couldn't hit BIN fast enough) but have no idea if it's his signature or not, as I have never seen another one to compare it to. He never made the bigs and I guess he is either not a big signer or just not in demand.

EPIC mail day yesterday thanks to [MENTION=10970]Yanks2151[/MENTION]

He helped me get a couple Ralph Branca cards signed at the White Plains show earlier this year. Best $75 I have spent in a while for autographs! They turned out great!!

Don't toss them. Let me know what you want to ship them to 98005 and i many buy them, if you are willing to send. Just make sure they are rinsed out good. Sour milk = nasty!

I have a few of these which seem to be from la schools. they haven't sold on ebay and i'm moving so i may toss them out. they seem cool though.

not sure why the link doesn't work when I paste it but search "driftwood dairy" under completed items.

It looks like I can send you a grocery bag full for $20. Any less and it wouldn't really be worth my time. I didn't count but there is maybe 6 or 7 of each player.

Nothing like the Branca mail day, but a handful of goodies. Wells seems to be a bit tough and a nice certified Lopes. Seems he is getting tougher these days.

I picked up the set minus the GARVEY!! Cruel twist of fate.

I've never seen a site with so little love for the Dodgers!!!



This Russell is #'d/10 and i like the deep purple color. I think there are gold bordered cards too, maybe red. Would make a nice run, but since it is Russell, I probably won't.



And technically a Yankee card, but any card showing Dodger uniform with another team listed or team name Dodgers with the player in another uniform is still a Dodger in my book.

Thanks to bear0555, I now have these nifty milk carton cards. I decided to cut the panels off, 1 of each player, since they display much better than a full carton. Milk cartons are not the easiest to cut, because they are thicker and waxy. I still have several of each player in carton form for now, so no biggie if i miscut them during my experiment.

plus, I got tired of scanning new autos. They come in too fast to keep up at times!



Looks like people are starting to buy them on ebay too. This could be one of those sets people wished they had kept 20 years from now. Hard to store, awkward and all. Those issues make the best toughies later, because people don't take the time to save and properly care for them

Love the milk carton cards. How wide are those? Do they fit in a top loader?

Yes, I scanned Ethier next to a standard Topps card. A little smaller that standard.
