Delivery Time! Baseball Card Breakdown Sends Archives

Another Trade Stack success story!  Today's trade package is courtesy of Gavin over at Baseball Card Breakdown.  Gavin claimed Trade Stack #99 and we decided to work out a larger trade based on that.  You can read about what all I sent him here.  For now though, let's look at what he sent me in return!

The trade started off with Gavin claiming the Trade Stack in exchange for a 2017 Topps Archives card or two.  Gavin actually had two that I needed:

Hard to believe that those Archives base cards have been so slow to trickle in!  I definitely feel like that is one of the sets that I should be able to finish off before the year 2020 is over.  After all, I'm only missing 11 more of them:
2017 Topps Archives wants:Base:  52, 72, 103, 132, 142, 204, 207, 215, 288, 291, 300
Like I mentioned at the outset of the post, Gavin and I decided to increase the power of the trade a bit since he also had some Barry Larkin cards for me (including this gorgeous blue Topps Gold Label card numbered out of 150).

Gavin also threw in a couple more Larkins to finish off the trade package.

That Donruss Larkin is printed on some of the thinnest card stock that I've seen for a non-sticker card.  It's pretty though, I'll give it that!  The Leaf Larkin card is numbered out of 2500, so not as rare as the Gold Label but still a nice addition to my Larkin binders.

Thanks for the trade, Gavin!  As for anyone else, if you've got anything on my want list I'd love to work out a trade - let me know via email!

  1. I love those 90's Donruss cards that used the refractor-like technology. Not sure what they're called, but it's really cool. And I totally know what you're talking about with that thin cardstock.

    Very nice Larkins! Good to see the trade stacks are helping you fill player PCs and set needs.
