It's time to take a break from the Group Break Madness and dip into the 'ol mailbox. I've neglected a few different packages that I've received since I started opening up the packs of the group break - but that's about to be rectified.
Here's a package from Jack over at
All Tribe Baseball - Jack sent this to me as part of the Group Break (and included a rather ominous "good luck on the break" message...apparently he was smart enough to realize what a fool I was offering to open and scan about 100 packs of cards with 10 - 16 cards per pack)!
2010 Topps:
Legendary Lineage:
LL4. Lou Gehrig & Mark Teixeira
LL9. Honus Wagner & Hanley Ramirez
LL14. Warren Spahn & Tommy Hanson
LL25. Tom Seaver & Roy Halladay
Peak Performers:
PP-10. Christy Mathewson
PP-12. Lou Gehrig
PP-26. Joe Mauer
PP-31. Manny Ramirez
PP-34. Ichiro
2010 Topps Heritage:
204. Brandon Phillips
For the first time since 2006, I've decided not to collect the Topps Heritage set. That said, I'm still happy to acquire the Reds from the set - but I can't convince myself that it's my time, money, and energy to track down another version of Heritage when I still haven't managed to complete the
2007, 2008, or 2009 sets...
Speaking of Topps Heritage sets that I haven't completed, Jack did get me one card closer to the 2008 set...
2008 Topps Heritage:
456. Corey Patterson
Ugh, the nemesis of my Reds season a couple of years ago... At least it's one fewer cards that I need - and one that once safely tucked into the binder I can skip over from here on out!
And finally, one last card - a GIANT card of Barry Larkin from a set that I've never seen before. I believe the card is from a 1993 Topps set called Topps Full Shot - but if anyone has any information on this particular set I'd be interested. I'll post the card (eventually) as part of my
Barry Larkin Collection - but until then, any information about the set would be appreciated!
Thanks a lot Jack - and I hope that the Indians continue to show up in droves during the group break! Finally, as always, if anyone else would like to work out a trade, check out
my want list and make an offer!
Glad you liked the cards ! I should have sent more info.Topps Full Shot : 21 card set; available at retail outlets; 1 large card and two packs of 1993 Topps per package.All the oversize cards are different photos than the regular issues.There is a Carlos Baerga that I am searching for!
