Sorry, Deadheads. 1951 Bowman was way trippier than anything in Jerry's merch tent.

1990 Upper Deck High Series

Preach! 🙌🏽

I’d take the L on this one.

Alysa Liu with silver an bronze medalists from Team Japan

Ilia Malinin

Amber Glenn

Madison Chock and Evan Bates

Just a heads up if you loved Alysa Liu, Ilia Malinin, Amber Glenn, and other top Team USA skaters in Milan, they’re touring the country this spring and tix are going fast.

Have you ever thought about adding the cards to a User List in TCDB? It’s a good way to get folks excited about the collection and I think they can also suggest additions. www.tcdb.com/UserLists.cfm

Also on hand that day, Otto Miller, who was the Brooklyn starting catcher the day the ballpark opened.

Great pickup! About the same condition as mine!

Diamond Stars Fordham Flash

Middle infielder “in action” pose. I think it was phased out prior to the Topps Era.

That’s an elite crew right there.

Jodee LOVED that guy on the Pels. So much hustle, heart, and attitude.

2018 JOGO CFL Alumni Woody Strode SP

This is one of my favorite pages in that A) it’s Woody’s only real football card, and B) there are only about 65 of them in the world.

Not many cards out there of Bob Wilson!

Never one to skate by!

That card is CLEAN for 74 years old!

Why settle for clapping for the Sharks when you can root for the Goldenseals?

Nature’s Way could sponsor.

Or a $100 card in a $3900 slab! 😜

How am I only finding out now that Oakland had an NHL team?

Topps set with some extra OPC

Best I got is my 1984-85 Topps set, built from packs. Set only had three Oilers 🤷 so I added some OPC 🇨🇦 later on. Insane team where one guy had 200+ points, three others had 100+, and another had 99.

If you're watching the men's gold medal hockey game where it's cold, think about watching women's baseball in July where it will be hot! The women's baseball world cup is coming to Rockford this summer. (Countries participating at Rockford site announced soon.) Happy Founders Day!

Dave Winfield

Not saying you're missing out if you don't collect 1990 Halo Magazine California Angels "rookie cards" but...you're missing out.

As a reader or in real life?

Actor-turned-social worker Leonard Mann

How about a signed card of Pete’s godfather?

I have TD but thank you!

A few highlights from today's SABR Day held jointly with Milwaukee's Ken Keltner chapter. We had three great presentations. ⚾️

Today’s ballgame

Who else is watching the huge 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 match today? No spoilers! Some of us like to watch the recording.

Custom Babe Horrell card

Part of my Jackie-adjacent collection. Richards was an assistant coach when Jackie played football at UCLA. He’s the guy on the right in this pic.

Go Big Red back

NTV Back

KM3TV back

Achievement unlocked! 1989 Leesley “Nebraska Cornhuskers 100” 🌽 Ray Richards with all three backs! The MG3TV and NTV backs came in packs at Pizza Huts in eastern and central/western Nebraska respectively. Not sure how the GBR backs were distributed but they are MUCH more common.

Wow! Third one please. 🙏
