Scoring from My Dealer

 

Bought some cards at a yard sale.  They were mostly in clear plastic pouches, so I could see the top card and the bottom card in each one but not the rest.  

Anyway, let's peruse the highlights. 

 

-  Undisputed heavyweight boxing champion 1987 - 1990.

-  4x All-Star

-  The Human Highlight Film

-  Weird Jordan card from 1999.

-  6x AFL All-Star

-  First Team All-Pro in 1971

-  3 x Pro Bowler

-  3x Pro Bowler

-  Pro Football Hall of Famer

-  Pro Football Hall of Famer

-  Pro Football Hall of Famer

-  2x Pro Bowler

-  5x Pro Bowler

-  4x Pro Bowler

-  A few late-1970s football commons.

-  Several good players from 1988 Topps football, but they're dupes (as is the Monk). 

-  An Al Hrabosky and a David Wells.       

-  For $7 I figure I got a decent deal.

Baseball Card Year Contest Winner

The correct answer was 1956.  Nobody got it.  

Brett Alan was closest with his guess of 1951.  

He needs to send me his address again so I can send him his prize.

Cards from Santa

Got a pack of 2024 Topps baseball cards for Christmas.

-  Donovan won a Gold Glove in 2022.

-  Swanson is a 2x All-Star and has won 2 Gold Gloves.

-  Hoerner won a Gold Glove in 2023.
