Dear Topps, about your 2010 base set …

on November 30th, 2009 by Newspaperman

Dear Topps,
I saw the design for your base set 2010 and I would like to say that I enjoy it a bit. I know it’s a fusion of an old Bazooka set and a Topps set, but it looks a bit refreshing. Traditionalists may not like it because it looks pretty modern, but I dig [...]

Topps Number Ones new additions

on November 30th, 2009 by Newspaperman

As some of you know I’m working on a special project to obtain the first card from every Topps baseball set from 1952 through present. It’s a project that started earlier this year after realizing I had a few vintage Number Ones, including the almighty 1952 Topps Andy Pafko. Over the last week I have [...]

Happy Birthday Bo Jackson!!!

on November 30th, 2009 by 30-Year Old Cardboard

Bo Jackson turns 47 years old today.
Vincent Edward Jackson was one of the most exciting players to debut in major league baseball during the 1980’s.  A 2-sport athlete that built a strong following at the University of Auburn, Jackson was a star before he made his professional debut.
And although his career was cut short due [...]

Unsung Heroes – Justin Forsett

on November 30th, 2009 by chemgod

It isn’t often that I am able to write about a Seahawk.  This season has just been miserable.  They have beaten the rotten teams they should have beaten and get destroyed by all the other teams.  At this point I’m hoping they keep on their losing ways so that they can get a decent draft [...]

Card of the Day: Bernie Parent ‘09 ITG 1972 The Year In Hockey Auto

on November 29th, 2009 by rosschrisman2003

ITG (In The Game, Inc) has been producing licensed hockey cards since 1998.  They are one of the best manufacturers of hockey cards within The Hobby.  Some of their patch cards are insane!!!!  I think this is the first ITG card I’ve ever used for “Card of the Day”.

#80 Vada Pinson

on November 29th, 2009 by sideshow

Not one of my finest specimens. The excellent centering, which is always tough with these cards, is ruined by staining, a big crease, a rubber band dimple, AND soft corners. The bottom right of the card is kinda hanging on for dear life. Might only be a G if graded out.
Because Pinson isn’t a Hall [...]

2009 Topps Vada Pinson

on November 29th, 2009 by JT

Vada Pinson was a very good player overshadowed by one of the greatest of his generation, Frank Robinson. In his first full season in the majors, Pinson led the NL in doubles and runs scored and made the All-Star team. He followed that with another All-Star appearance in 1960, leading the NL once again in [...]
