Today's prompt is supposed to be my favorite card from outside the United States. However, I don't actively collect cards from outside the US and so I don't have anything good for the prompt. That said, I can't let that be my only answer for today, so let's change it up slightly.
A Card Featuring a Country Other than the United States
There, that's better. I have lots of cards to choose from now! My favorite cards featuring other countries though come from Allen & Ginter - and among the various insert sets that involve other countries, I think the 2007 50 Flags of All Nations set is my favorite.
This is a set that I've been working on for awhile now (and I'm still not done with it). For the purposes of today's (changed) prompt, I decided to go with my favorite card that I own from the set that features a country that I haven't yet visited. The winner?
Love it! A great flag image with the ship in the background - something showing off Portugal's once mighty fleet of ships. This is the perfect marriage of good design and historical intrigue that I find so appealing about a lot of Allen & Ginter sets.
There's still a number of 30-Day Baseball Card prompts remaining, here they are:

A. I love this set. Been trying to track down the Japan card for a decade.
ReplyDeleteB. Portuguese sausage is one of my favorite things to eat.
