Most baseball card bloggers know about the site Listia. In general, it's a site where you can get cards for "free." I put the word free in quotes because you do need to either give away your own stuff (to earn credits) or to complete a bunch of surveys and other things (in order to earn credits). However, not all cards are free - sometimes sellers charge actually money for shipping (in addition to credits for the auction).
The good news about that? You can usually get a pretty good deal because most Listonians (is that a word...it is now) don't want to pay for anything, including shipping.
Case in point:
I picked up this little card for the a buck, plus 100 credits. I don't think it was the best deal I've ever gotten from the site, but it did bring me one card closer to completing my 2013 Allen & Ginter set!
The card celebrates the Nag Hammadi Library which I had assumed was some sort of ancient building. Of course, I'm an idiot and was totally wrong. Behold!
Yeah. The Nag Hammadi Library was a bunch of documents in a clay pot.
You learn something new every day...and sometimes you can learn for as little as a buck!

Those are the gospels that made lots of people uncomfortable. They say one of those is the Magdalene Gospel. Nice card!
