Card Collecting 18: Incoming

So I got two more cards from Brian (Highly Subjective and Completely Arbitrary):

1981 Fleer #268 Rod Carew Front   1974-75 Topps #109 Jim Neilson Front

I've mentioned my respect for Carew in a previous post.  I like the mountain background in this Fleer '81.

Neilson played over 1,000 games in the NHL.  The Golden Seals are a defunct team, which I like. They played at the Oakland - Alameda County Coliseum Arena, which is where I attended my first NBA game.

I made a TCDB trade with Thomas (UWBone24) and landed a few baseball cards:

   

  

 

An Ainge rookie card.  I like me some Diamond Kings.  Some people might consider these '83 cards junk era, but I consider 1985 the start of the junk era.

I bought some more repacks, so I'll just mention a few gets here:

1984 Topps #111 Howie Long Front   1984 Topps #228 Walter Payton Front

1981 Fleer #653 Willie Wilson Front  1990 Donruss #68 Wade Boggs Front

1990 Upper Deck #227 Barry Bonds Front  1989 Donruss #561 Craig Biggio Front 

The Howie and the Biggio are rookie cards.

  1. Nice stuff! I've always like that Carew with the mountains in the background.

    1. Yeah. I think I'm at the point in collecting where I like things that are a little bit different.
