User Lists | Trading Card Database

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.

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.

Topps set with some extra OPC

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 πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ later on. Insane team where one guy had 200+ points, three others had 100+, and another had 99.

International Women’s Baseball Center

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!

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