October Pick-Up Thread

[AstroJake09]

Quick post here to share my newest card of Greinke’s that I’ve been after for a while now. It’s from the 2004 Topps Cracker Jack set and it’s the rare SP blue mini parallel. It’s unnumbered but I’ve been told it each SP mini blue has a print run of /50 copies. I think that the “mini” designation is a bit unfair here as the original 1914 set was of the smaller variety and are the same size as these “minis” in the 2004 set, so technically the regular sized cards are “jumbo.” Anyway, the blue parallel works well with Greinke’s Royals uniform and being that I have slim odds of finding the white 1/1, it’ll do! It’s one of Zack’s lesser known rookies but is among the more appealing options he has. The set has a nice addition of history as well with the original being an iconic set and a thread through our National Pastime!

Hope you enjoy the card as much as I do!

Great Grienke!

Here are this weekend's arrivals.

First a couple more RC's for the collection.




Secondly I have been looking to add both a Topps Chrome and Bowman Chrome Superfractor to my Modern Type Collection. I've been looking for the right Bowman Chrome Super for a couple months. I had my eye on a couple and they all went for more than I expected. Then I saw this and I couldn't hit the BIN fast enough. 2nd overall pick and probably a $1000 card on release six years ago. Snagged it for about $30 delivered.

Nice pick up on that superfractor. They are beautiful cards that are way too expensive at first but are affordable after a few years and the game of hot potato has run its course.

Nice Bonds Ray. I've always liked the '88 Topps Big issue.

New arrival for me.
