If anyone has an Applejack from the recent McDonald's promotion you'd be willing to trade, you will be well rewarded.

Like free cards? Have too many Indians in your doubles box? Check out the 182 Packs of Baseball Thingy.

Punk Rock Paint is making some Nifty business cards (Nifty with a capitol IFT)


In case anyone wants my opinion on card shops in Atlanta

1985 Topps Wantlist

I'm pretty sure I have at least a third of these floating around somewhere, they're just not in the box with the rest of my set. True story: There was a card show at Northlake Mall back in the '80s and I bought a pack of '85 Topps and pulled the Clemens. I traded it to the seller for God knows what and he warned me that he normally doesn't take trades from customers who pull good rookies out of packs because they might regret it later. I told him no sweat, I already had that card anyway. Heh. .



181 Roger Clemens Boston Red Sox P
253 Sid Bream Los Angeles Dodgers 1B
272 Jeff Burroughs - 1969 #1 Draft Pick Minnesota Twins
273 Bill Almon - 1974 #1 Draft Pick San Diego Padres
274 Floyd Bannister - 1976 #1 Draft Pick Houston Astros
278 Darryl Strawberry - 1980 #1 Draft Pick New York Mets
279 Mike Moore - 1981 #1 Draft Pick Seattle Mariners
398 Shane Mack - USA Olympic Team Team USA OF
415 whoever this guy is
701 Eddie Murray - All-Star Baltimore Orioles 1B
713 Ryne Sandberg - All-Star Chicago Cubs 2B



* Oddly enough, I have the Tiffany version but not the base version of this card.
** I know for a fact I have this card, it's just hiding at the moment.

Have 780/792 cards from the set - 98.4% completed

**I know for sure that I have at least a few of these for you. I'll let you know once I find them. Last I seen 'em was when Doc Gooden came over.
