ONLINE MEGA BOX - PART 15

I'VE STARTED ORGANIZING THESE CARDS INTO SEMI-COHERENT GROUPS FOR THE NEWEST SHIPMENT AND I'M HAVING TROUBLE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HECK I WAS THINKING WITH SOME OF THESE POSTS NOW. BOTH THE POSTS AND THE CARDS

1991 ENOR PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME FRANCO HARRIS


 CATEGORY - IT'S JUST COOL, OK

I AM LESS INTERESTED IN FOOTBALL LEGENDS SETS THAN I AM IN THE BASEBALL VERSION. THIS CARD LOOKS GREAT THOUGH WITH FRANCO TRUCKIN OVER A BUNCH OF VIKINGS. I GOT A BUNCH OF FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME CARDS SOMETIME IN THE LATE 80S AND THEY WERE KIND OF BORING BUT I HAD NEVER SEEN THIS ONE BEFORE AND THEY ARE A BIG IMPROVEMENT


THE BACKS ARE PRETTY COOL TOO. STEELER COLORS, A NICE SUMMARY WRITEUP AND A PHOTO OF THE ACTUAL HALL OF FAME ORANGE JUICER BUILDING

2021 POKEMON SOMETHING OR OTHER SAWSBUCK


 CATEGORY - I DUNNO ABOUT THIS ONE

I DON'T COLLECT POKEMON CARDS AND I DON'T EVEN REALLY LIKE THIS POKEMON. IT'S JUST A REINDEER. REINDEERS ARE NOT MAGICAL MONSTERS, THEY'RE JUST ANIMALS. IT WAS A RARE CARD THOUGH AND I CAN'T PASS UP RARE CCG CARDS. IT'S A DISEASE

2021 PANINI CHRONICLES CRUSADE COREY RAY AND TREVOR ROGERS


 CATEGORY - CHRONICLES

WOOO CHRONISCLES! AND CRUSADE CARDS AT THAT! NEITHER OF THESE GUYS ARE ENDING UP ON A HALL OF FAME BALLOT OR MAYBE EVEN A ROSTER NEXT YEAR BUT I JUST LIKE TO HAS THE CARDS

2022 PANINI CHRONICLES CRUSADE KEVIN SMITH


 CATEGORY - CHRONICLES

ANOTHE CRUSADE CARD! MAN I WISH THERE WAS MORE COLOR ON THESE THINGS

2022 TOPPS JASON HEYWARD


 CATEGORY - J-HEY

TCDB NUMBER GO UP. I HAVEN'T ENTERED ANY NEW CARDS ON THERE IN MONTHS SO I HAVE NOT SEEN NUMBER LATELY. I'M PROBABLY IN 47TH PLACE NOW

1991 TOPPS GLOSSY ROOKIES STEVE AVERY, TRAVIS FRYMAN, JOHN BURKETT


 CATEGORY - INSERT

THERE WERE A BUNCH OF THESE GLOSSY ROOKIE CARDS ON THE SITE BUT I ONLY PICKED UP THESE THREE OF GUYS WHO ACTUALLY HAD A DECENT CAREER. I DON'T KNOW WHY IT IS BUT I GO GAGA OVER THE ALL-STAR GLOSSIES BUT AM MEH ABOUT THE ROOKIES EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE PROBABLY A BIT SCARCER. AVERY WAS A NO BRAINER BUT FRYMAN AND BURKETT WERE ALL STARS SO THEY GOT ADDED TO THE PILE. THERE WERE A BUNCH OF OTHERS AVAILABLE BUT I WAITED LONG ENOUGH ON THEN THAT THEY GOT SNAPPED UP BY OTHER PEOPLE WHICH WAS KINDA A RELIEF AFTER A WHILE

2019 DONRUSS OPTIC MIKE FOLTYNEWICZ PRIZM


 CATEGORY - SHINY

FOLTY'S BEST KNOWN MOMENT AS A BRAVE ISN'T... GREAT. BUT IT'S A SHINY GOOD LOOKING CARD AND IT CAN GO IN THE BRAVES BOX WITH THE REST OF THE FORGOTTEN SHINY CARDS OF GUYS LIKE WILSON BETEMIT, DENNY NEAGLE AND ADAM LAROCHE. TWO THINGS I NOTICED ON THE ENLARGED PICTURE ON MY SCREEN: THE GHOSTLY DONRUSS LOGO IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER AND THE Z THAT APPEARS TO HAVE GOTTEN CHOPPED OFF AT THE END

2022 BOWMAN FREDDIE FREEMAN


 CATEGORY -  BRAVES

I'M NOT GOING TO GO OUT OF MY WAY TO PICK UP FREDDIE FREEMAN CARDS ANY MORE BUT IF THEY FALL IN MY LAP, THAT'S FINE. NO L.A. CARDS THOUGH - SEND THEM TO A DODGER COLLECTOR

2012 PANINI AMERICANA HEROES AND LEGENDS BOB BEAMON


 CATEGORY - JUST LOOK AT IT

AMERICANA HEROES AND LEGENDS IS ANOTHER SET THAT MISSED ME WHEN IT RELEASED. I FOUND A LIST OF CARDS FROM THE SET FOR SALE ON THE SITE SO I CHECKED OUT THE GALLERY ON TCDB AND FOUND A CHECKLIST OF PRESIDENTS, OLYMPIANS AND ASTRONAUTS. I COULD SEE WHY I SKIPPED THIS ONE BACK IN THE DAY. THEN I SAW THIS CARD. ADD TO CART

UP NEXT - SOME STUFF. WE'RE IN A BIT OF A LULL BEFORE THE CRAZY STUFF POPS UP AGAIN

Honestly happy that the glossy rookies were not a big deal. All Sytars were fun in the day because they were all stars. Rookies are only fun as investments or after the fact.
