The Super Sweet Early 00's Thread

[Jack Straw]

I have managed to find images of 5 of the Chicago cards. I am sure from Ebay at sometime in the last couple years?

^^^ Wow... so each of those is essentially #/5? That is great... I'm sure I'll never see the Belle's but o well. Just seems like a weird set.

I sold a Jeter the other day that I've had for awhile for $58. Prices can be all over the place though. I've seen many players sell real cheap and others well over $100.

 

[RustyGreerFan]

I have always wondered why these were recognized by Beckett.

 

[PadresFan86]

Picked this lot up. Really just wanted the Klesko. I'll sell the lot cheaper than what I bought it for if anybody is interested.

These are a pain to find now. You could get them if you were actively buying them right after they came out. They were all over the internet. But once the intial wave of them went away, they rarely are seen any more at reasonable prices. Larkin actually had 29 of these Donruss Chicago Collection/Chicago National cards from 2001-2003, all #'d/5. I managed to track down 12 of the 29, with 7 of them coming from 1 dealer. I haven't picked up another in probably 3 years now though. Good Luck!

Thought I'd throw out this question for the thread, I'm looking through my Belle checklist and just seeing where there are gaps and I wanted to see if anyone has or knows about any of these? Beckett shows they are each serial numbered out of 5!

Base cards pulled at a card show don't really have any appeal to me. I'm not a fan.

Same here - Whether I like it or not, I want to own it if it is recognized. I thinkmost player collectors are that way

 

[bustin_knuckles]

I like the ones that are numbered on the back but the ones numbered just above the logo don't really appeal to me that much. I still get them though if I see any cause a card numbered to /5 or /1 they usually sell for far less than a pack inserted card numbered the same.

Anyone ever come across any 2000 UD Legends Commemoritive Collections missing serial #'s? I just grabbed two on COMC that had the same front finish as the Commemoratives, but weren't #'ed at all.

EDIT: Think I was the victim of a bad scan. When I looked closer, they didn't have the same holofoiling as the CCs:

 

[HawkeyeFan]

Don't have much but I have these Griffey's

 

[Therion]

I have 2 of 4 Chicago cards of Darryl Kile

 

[exigussrex]

PadresFan86 - those are some sweet EXs. If the Angels from 2003 every come up for sale/trade - let me know!
Here are a few for my nomar collection:

And another Griffey to add to Hawkeye's post

Love the retro backs on the 2003-2005 Leaf Passing Thru Time cards. I especially like the serial numbered versions - they look cool displayed backwards in my albums.

Post yours or let me know if you have any serial numbered Passing Thru Time press proofs for trade.

I've always been a fan of those too. Here's a base:
