Ginter Group Break: The final 12 Packs of the Break!

Before we get to the final 12 packs of the break, I have to say thank you to a few different groups of people.  First, the fine folks at Atlanta Sports Cards.  Without their support, this break wouldn't have happened.

Second, I want to thank all the group break participants, without you this break wouldn't have happened either.  Finally, I want to thank all my readers (both old and new).  I know it's been a TON of Ginter on my blog over the last week or so...but I hope it was still entertaining.

With that said, let's finish this break!

Box #12:
Pack 13:
Name:  91.  Alex Rodriguez - Yankees
A&G back:  158.  Melky Cabrera - Giants

Pack 14:
Willow Cove:  Greg Keeley
Base SP:  320.  Jonathan Papelbon - Phillies
Black border mini:  269.  Mike Schmidt - Phillies

A nice Phillies pack!

Pack 15:
Willow Cove:  Frank Kraft
Base SP:  311.  Bob Gibson - Cardinals
Reg. mini:  287.  Hiroki Kuroda - Yankees

Pack 16:
Name:  74. Tom Seaver - Mets
Culinary Curiosities:  Hakarl

Hakarl is fermented shark...shark who's flesh is poisonous until it is buried for months and exhumed in a state of decomposition.  Ew.

Pack 17:
Name:  93.  Billy Butler - Royals
No name mini:  Edwin Jackson - Nationals

Woo, a surprise hit late in the break!  This is our third no number mini card - and the second for the Nationals!!  A big congrats to Dan who picked up the Nats.

Pack 18:
Building:  Burj Khalifa
Base SP:  331.  Carl Crawford - Red Sox
Reg. mini:  182.  Colby Rasmus - Blue Jays

Pack 19:
Building:  Metlife Building
Base SP:  Jason Heyward - Braves
A&G back mini:  14.  Nick Markakis - Orioles

Pack 20:
Name:  53.  Justin Morneau - Twins
Reg. mini:  78.  Joe Mauer - Twins

A nice pack for the Twins.

Pack 21:
Name:  3.  Ryan Howard - Phillies
Reg. mini:  142.  Jose Reyes - Marlins
Framed relic:  AGR-ELO.  Evan Longoria - Rays

That's the third (and easily the best) relic for the Rays.  The Rays join the Rangers and Cubs as teams with 3+ relics/autos in the group break!

Pack 22:
Willow Cove:  Tom's Place
Base SP:  322.  Sergio Santos
A&G back mini:  168.  Jason Kipnis - Indians

Pack 23:
Name:  Don Mattingly - Yankees
Reg. mini:  226.  Jim Thome - Phillies

Pack 24:
Building:  Petronas Towers
Base SP:  314.  Bruce Buffer (announcer)
Man's Best Friend:  Shetland Sheepdog

Whew!  That was a ton of opening and typing - but I hope it was worth it for everyone involved!  Now for the sorting...

Hope you enjoyed the break!!

Finally, ever want to see what a full case of Ginter looks like on a table (waiting to be fully sorted)?

Wow!

And now, here are a few of the hits propped up on my own unopened case (just to be on the up-n-up with everyone).

I can finally dig into my own case, can't wait.  I hope it is as good as this one was - three no numbered minis, a rip card #/50, a card #/25, and plenty of non-baseball relics made this a great break if you ask me (not to mention the Larkin relic)!

Note:  I have scheduled a post for the randomization of the non-baseball hits to go live tomorrow morning, don't miss it!
