The Super Sweet Early 00's Thread

I had no idea that they had HoloView versions of the Title Waves cards from 2001 Elite. In quick ebay searching, they all look the same. Makes me wonder how many Holoviews I have passed up. I wish there was a list made that says "this card is exactly the same except for one difference that can only be told if the seller takes a decent enough picture, and takes the time to list the serial number, because if its the first hundred or so of a print run it is a different card". Kind of goes along with how they would die cut the beginning print run of a card. I guess I need to really study my checklist, even though that doesnt tell you details. It just lists it as another card.

Lol! It's a pain man. The only way I knew was I purchased my two from Burbank. They're pretty good about listing things appropriately. With a Beckett listing in the description to boot.

I still find cards on my checklist that I didn't mark off simply because I didn't know what they were when I got them. But as the list narrows down, I see a card unchecked and if I suspect I have it, I'll double check. Just crossed two off my list I'd written off as uncatologed.

Yeah, I opened my list this morning. I never actually finished checking them off. I really need to set some time and knock out that list. Its daunting, because there will be pages of unchecked boxes... All those damn 1/1's...

I love those cards. I bought a lot of 300 Jeter cards for $110, mostly commons and the Holoview was in there. I didn't realize it until I went through them all!

#21 Pettitte
#29 Beltre going to [MENTION=4047]mrmopar[/MENTION]
#48 T. Hunter
#88 C Delgado

Cards that feature super awesome hitters bunting make me furious

 

[magicpapa]

Hey guys, loved the post on cameos. You forgot the parallels though!

Also wondering if anyone has seen or heard of these cards. They are produced by the Prostate Cancer Foundation, which issued cards from 1999 through 2008, to my knowledge. I've got the 1999, 2001, 2002, and what I assume to be 2004 through 2008 although they are not dated. Any thoughts from the group? Thanks much!

Prostrate cards are a pain in the ass.

Love this thread, I got back into collecting in 2000....
Some of my recent adds from the era

It just seems that the companies but more care and effort into producing good looking cards back then.
