I have a handful of traders I try to find some bargains for at card shows. Most of them are team traders who always seem to have cards I need. TCDB member bdhrbob is one of those guys. He is a Cubs fan who would loves dumping his Cardinals on me. I have been asked a few times at shows why a Cardinals fan is buying a bunch of Cubs. It is easy finding good deals for his collection when I am close to St. Louis. We recently completed our third trade of 2026. I am certain I owe him after this trade. I sent him 2 inserts in exchange for these 11 Cardinals.
My 2025 Topps Update team set is now complete.
2025 Prizm is a rather boring looking set, but the team collector in me still chases after the Cardinals. The OCD in me just cannot let them go.
My first 2025 Allen & Ginter cards includes a nice Bruce Sutter short print. I am not sure why Topps game a non playoff team like the Cardinals 18 cards in this set. That is 2 more than the Dodgers.
The highlight of the package was this 2025 A&G Saggese autograph, my first certified autograph of his. It is not much of an auto, but it is consistent with his in person autographs.
