Happy Tuesday/Valentine's Day to all my fellow collectors. My wife and I have not done anything special for quite a few years now. She has never been the flower/candy type. Our big plans are to order a pizza and watch the Illini game tonight. After 24 years together, the spark is still there. Enough rambling; onto the trade recaps. First up is a two-pack of Cardinals from member bigblue88.
There are 18 Cardinals in the 2015 Topps Update gold set. These 2 put me at 11. That is a lot farther along than I thought.
The second package contained 4 oddball Cardinals from user twinscollector34.
I have never seen or heard of any of the 4 cards in this trade. The Simmons card is from the 1991 MDA All Stars set. The Cepeda is from the 1992 SmithKline Beecham MVPs for MDA set. These 2 are the type of unlicensed cards that I love.
I find it strange the 1992 Mootown Snackers card says Autograph Series, but there is no autograph on the card. No big deal, as I doubt Felix Jose autographs go for very much. If I remember correctly, I gave less than $5 delivered for one of his Topps Archives autographs.
This Lee Smith card was an insert in a 1991 Allan Kaye's Sports Cards News Magazine. I have never heard of that publication before. I was surprised to see logos on this card.
