The Great 2020 Ginter Framed Relic Chase is On: Another Legend is Nabbed!

 I've mentioned a few times on the blog already that I've decided to go after this year's Allen & Ginter framed relic set (in addition to all the other Ginter inserts).  This year's framed set doesn't feature any "oddball" relics like in years past, instead the focus is on the stars of today, tomorrow, and yesterday...with a lot of emphasis on the stars of yesterday as it turns out!

With so many legends on the relic checklist, I'll probably never come close to finishing this thing but the good news is that I'm in no real rush...so if I can nab a relic here or there for a decent price, then I'll do it and be happy.

Case in point, my latest legend to join my set:  

Alright, so the bit of cloth is a disappointing gray but it's still a nice looking card of one of my favorite non-Reds of all time!

As I said already, I'm nowhere near done with this set - in fact, here's the full list of what I'm still searching for (chances are, if you pulled a framed relic this year, I probably still need it):
