The "Cameo" Thread

But it adds the challenge of trying to complete this run - all 125 cards:

Are you collecting all of those to /150? How about the blues and the blacks?

I'm doing the blacks and blues as well but haven't picked them up as frequently.

Why not?

Does this mean you've got all the Larry Bowa and Ivan DeJesus Donruss cards that have trade info on the back?

And all those 80's Topps All Star subset cards with the league leaders on back?

I've got the Bowa and DeJesus cards. I've got all the regular 80's and 90's Topps All Star cards. I still need to find a few of the parallels (Tiffany, Desert Shield, Micro) and a few of 90's O-Pee-Chee All Star cards.

You're insane! :lol:

I have a 93 topps micro set at home. Do you know which cards he is mentioned on? I can send em to you if I find em.

I don't know of any of the 93's on which he is mentioned. The micros I need are 91 and 92. Thanks though! If I do end up finding any from 93, I'll let you know.

Tim, I was looking thru your list and looking up the pictures of some Rickey cards I didn't have. You can cross off 97 Ultra Gold & Platinum Medallion for Ozzie Smith. The base has Rickey, but the Medallions have different photos. Also the 97 Collector's Choice Ozzie, I didn't see Rickey on the front or back. Did find some that I didn't know about, really appreciate your time you put into us fellow collectors.

I guess these Sandbergs are incorrect if the 1997 Ultra Medallions have different pics?

Team PLAYER Year DESCRIPTION
CUBS SANDBERG,RYNE 1997 Ultra Gold Medallion #167 (cameo with Jason Maxwell)
CUBS SANDBERG,RYNE 1997 Ultra Platinum Medallion #167 (cameo with Jason Maxwell)

Not sure what happened with the 1997 Collectors Choice since that is clearly a Vince Coleman cameo.

Thanks for the QC. I haven't published an update in a little while, so now is as good as time as any.

Hmm... good call on the Medallions. I haven't seen the Maxwell Medallions, so I don't know for sure, but it's highlt unlikely Ryno is pictured on those as well.

It's good we have some guys that paid attention to the card market after 1995!

I ran into this medallion issue with this Derek Bell. The medallion cards have BAgwell, but his base did not. Cost me a buck for the mistake. Oh well.

Do any of the cameo collectors have their players' 1994 Fun Pack Scratchoff? I picked up a box of that stuff yesterday, and each card has a scratchoff game card with a team's lineup on it. As far as I know, there's one for every team (could be wrong, though). Don't have my scanner hooked up, but here's an ebay auction that has a picture: [ebay:1t034yva]160731236189[/ebay:1t034yva] I can't think of an active star from 1994 that isn't listed on at least one of these.

I don't plan on keeping these, so I will have 48 total available. Haven't finished busting the box, so I don't know what I do have, but they are all available to whoever needs them for their players.

This may come as a surprise, but I've got mine.

I recently went thru a Bagwell collection that had that very card in it. But I couldnt bring myself to pick it up. After hearing about LESquads collection, I didnt want to take that final leap to picking up cards that mention Bagwells name. But if a card has his feet, then thats ok Heck, if you are givin em away, I may as well add it to the collection. Lemme know if you would like my address.

LES - Im goin thru my Bagwells to see if Sandberg is mentioned on any of them. I'm only thru 95 thus far, and saw Sandberg listed on the 94 OPeeChee All Star redemption card. Does that mean you have to get each players card in that set for your cameo collection?
