Baseball Cards Come to Life!: Swing And A Grand Slam
http://borosny.blogspot.com/2015/05/swing-and-grand-slam.html
Baseball Cards Come to Life! Friday, May 8, 2015. Swing And A Grand Slam. I got a really fantastic trade package crammed with all sorts of awesome oddballs from Swing And A Pop-Up. More like Swing And A Grand Slam - in fact, two of them. The 1978 Grand Slam set was put together by future Donruss photographer Jack Wallin. The set featured retired ballplayers and was aimed at the autograph-hunter. Jumbo Sunflower Seeds have been family owned for four generations. Probably no type of food is more associ...

Baseball Cards Come to Life!: Baseball card stories from Ray Peters
http://borosny.blogspot.com/2015/05/baseball-card-stories-from-ray-peters.html
Baseball Cards Come to Life! Sunday, May 10, 2015. Baseball card stories from Ray Peters. Was the Seattle Pilots' number one draft pick in 1969. Though he only pitched three years of professional baseball, he did make the major leagues with the Milwaukee Brewers in 1970. He kindly shared some great baseball card stories. First, I really do not. Okay, so now I had a "custom card" that I could send to autograph seekers and to kids in the neighborhood who were always asking for one from me. I asked these ca...

Baseball Cards Come to Life!: May 2015
http://borosny.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Baseball Cards Come to Life! Sunday, May 31, 2015. Bought the whole dimebox. And it wasn't crap either. Years ago I had bought a couple of dime boxes off of him, at a $10 a row rate. I asked him if I could get this one for $20 and he said "sure". Here are some highlights of the good stuff. There were two copies of this Jeff Montgomery minor league card (so one is up for trade). It's not 1987 anymore). Coolest of all is that last year he made news. If you like photos like that then you would love Collecto...

Topps cards that never were: July 2015
http://toppscardsthatneverwere.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 24, 2015. Ideas for new cards. That begs the question, if the replacement rosters were finalized around let's say, February of 1995, should I make the cards in the 1995 set or the 1994 Traded set? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Will a "Cards that never Were" set ever happen? Official list of every Topps "Cards that never Were" made by myself and other bloggers (1989 - present). 1989 Topps Reference Page. 1990 Topps Reference Page. 1991 Topps Reference page. I COMPLETED THE 1992 TOPPS SET. Hidde...

Topps cards that never were: February 2015
http://toppscardsthatneverwere.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 24, 2015. What's been going on at my other blog. I don't know if my readers know about it or not, but I have another blog that I do besides this one called Completing the 1992 Topps Set. The backs are hard as heck to do because many of the players were mid-way through their careers or were a season or 2 away from retirement. I can get their career stats from www.baseball-reference.com. Tuesday, February 17, 2015. 2015 Topps Manny Ramirez Highlight Checklist. Saturday, February 14, 2015.

Crinkly Wrappers: the long and winding road.
http://crinklywrappers.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-long-and-winding-road.html
Tuesday, August 14, 2012. The long and winding road. I'm not even sure where to begin with this post. I suppose it doesn't have a beginning at all, giving that it was inevitable. I have a bad habit of cycling through hobbies. I get into something for a couple months at a time, then something else comes along and takes it place, only to leave the preceding hobby in the dust. At least for the time being. So it's official; I'm hanging up my cleats. The two years of loyal readers and commenters. I even had a...
