Another Trade Recap Before a Busy Few Days

First off I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.  After surviving 3 meals this weekend, I have only 2 more to go.  Today will be very hectic as we will be having about 40 people over to our house for lunch.  At least there is some calm before the storm that I can spend with my cards.  Another trade package arrived late last week from TCDB member Berton Russell that knocked out a few Cardinals wants.

I remember opening a few packs of 1998 UD3 and trying to figure out how the set was numbered.  It was so much easier when card companies put a single number on the back of a card instead of things like technology, set, and subset.

Fleer put out a ton of sets in 2002, but at least some were bases on retired players like Fall Classics. Sweet picture of lefty Steve Carlton before the terrible trade with Philly.

Rounding out the package are a couple of 2018 cards.  Hard to believe 2019 Topps will be here in about a month.
