Looking back at my posts, it has been over a month since I posted a TCDB that was not part of a 2 for Tuesday. 2 main reasons for that are my lack of free time for trades, and the trades I did complete were small. I managed to complete a larger trade 2 weeks ago with member jeffburk that I finally had a chance to scan this week.
October 14, 1985 was the day Ozzie Smith hit his famous "Go Crazy" home run against the Dodgers. He still has a ton of new cards produced every year by Topps and Panini. I enjoy adding them, but love getting his older oddball cards like the 1985 Topps Super.
A couple more oversized oddball cards include a 1986 Topps 3-D and a 1993 Upper Deck All Time Heroes. These 2 Hall of Famers are from the 1984 Galasso Glossy Greats set. Quite a few great Cardinals in this set like Musial, Dean, and Medwick.
Getting more modern with 3 refractors of 2 former Cardinals and a soon to be former Cardinal in Tyler O'Neill. I would be really shocked if he was still with St. Louis to start next season.
A handful of Bowman inserts included a 2 sided card featuring Flaherty on the front and Alex Reyes on the back. I was one of many fans who just a few years ago thought these 2 would be mainstays in the rotation for a long time.
2 Topps inserts including a Gibson from 2018 Topps Gallery and 1 of many needed Topps Gold parallels.
I will finish things up with 2 Topps Now cards from 2016 for my son's collection. It is fun to look back and see what obscure stat or feat Topps chose to recognize.
Oh wow, I can't remember the last time I saw an '86 3-D like your McGee, even online.
ReplyDeleteMy first time seeing one in person. Very cool card.
ReplyDeleteThe 3D McGee card is incredible!
ReplyDeleteLet's hope Tyler O'Neill is somewhere else next year, I won't believe Mo is moving on from him until I see it.
