IN THE IMMORTAL WORDS OF CHUCK BARRIS, WE'RE BACK WITH MORE STUFF
2022 HERITAGE OZZIE ALBIES
OZZIE, I LOVE HIM. PRETTY MUCH THE ONLY HERITAGE CARDS I COLLECT ANY MORE ARE BRAVES. I HAVE A BINDER OF HERITAGE BRAVES TEAM SETS BUT I'M NOT TERRIBLY INVESTED IN COMPLETING ANY OF THEM THANKS TO SHORT PRINTS. THESE CARDS LOOK GREAT BUT I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THE SP RATRACE ANYMORE SO I WILL APPRECIATE THE COMMON BASE CARDS INSTEAD
1997 METAL UNIVERSE MATT WILLIAMS
NO SHORTPRINTS IN METAL UNIVERSE! HERE'S ANOTHER COOL LOOKING CARD WITH A BACKGROUND THAT'S HARD TO SEE IN A PHOTO THANKS TO THE TEXTURE ON THE CARD. I FIDDLED AROUND WITH LIGHTING AND ANGLES FOR A BIT AND GOT A PHOTO WHERE YOU CAN KINDA SEE THINGS!
ROCKS! ROCKS FALLING ON MATT WILLIAMS! JUST LIKE THE STRIKE FELL ON HIS CHANCE FOR IMMORTALITY! MATT MIGHT'VE DODGED A BULLET SEEING HOW EVERYONE HATES MCGWIRE AND BONDS' GUTS AFTER BREAKING HALLOWED RECORDS
1996 PINNACLE AFICIONADO REY ORDONEZ GLOBAL REACH
OH HOW I LOVE THIS GOOFY ASS SET. THE BASE CARDS ARE WILD ENOUGH BUT THE SUBSETS CRANK THE HOLOFOIL AND THICK GLOOPY INK UP TO ELEVEN. THIS CARD LOOKS WILD IN PERSON
THE BACKS AIN'T BAD EITHER, SO MUCH COLOR ON THESE CARDS
2002 UPPER DECK PIECE OF HISTORY ERNIE BANKS
THIS CARD WAS TECHNICALLY A MISTAKE. I WAS TRYING TO BUY A DICK ALLEN CARD IN A LISTING WITH SEVEN OTHER CARDS BUT IT HAD ALREADY SOLD AND I DIDN'T NOTICE. HOWEVER! I DUG UP THIS SET TO PUT TOGETHER A WANTLIST AND I NEEDED THE CARD! HOORAY! THERE ARE NO MISTAKES, ONLY HAPPY ACCIDENTS
2021-22 PRIZM DRAFT PICKS JALEN JOHNSON
THE HAWKS ARE A MESS BUT JALEN JOHNSON LOOKS TO BE LEGIT. THE WHOLE TEAM COLLAPSED WHEN HE GOT HURT AT LEAST. I'VE BEEN NABBING JALEN CARDS WHEN I CAN IN CASE HE REALLY DOES BREAK OUT. THESE COLLEGE DRAFT PICK CARDS DON'T SEEM TO BE SUPER POPULAR AMONG NBA COLLECTORS BUT I LIKE HAVING SOME COLLEGE CARDS IN THE COLLECTION
2007-08 PRESS PASS LEGENDS BILL WALTON
SEE A BILL WALTON CARD, BUY A BILL WALTON CARD. BILL IS VERY POPULAR ON THE SITE, YOU GOTTA BE QUICK TO NAB ONE. THIS PRESS PASS LEGENDS SET IS ACTUALLY REALLY NICE LOOKING AND HAS A GREAT CHECKLIST
1992 ACTION PACKED BOB HORNER
THIS CARD WAS IN THAT BIG PILE OF ACTION PACKED CARDS I GOT AT THE FLEA MARKET A WHILE BACK. AND I ALSO THINK I HAD TWO OTHER COPIES OF THE CARD ANYWAY. BUT BOB HORNER ACTION PACKED CARD! IT DOES KIND OF BUM ME OUT THAT HE WAS A LEGENDS-TYPE PLAYER IN 1992 THOUGH, HE SHOULD'VE BEEN HITTING HIS 300TH HOME RUN THAT YEAR IN THE LAST YEAR OF THE EXTENSION HE SIGNED WITH THE BRAVES IN '87
1992 ACTION PACKED AL KALINE
KALINE WASN'T IN THAT PILE OF ACTION PACKED CARDS I GOT AT THE FLEA MARKET SO I'M HAPPY TO KNOCK THIS ONE OFF THE WANTLIST. ONE OF THE FIRST CARD-RELATED THINGS I EVER GOT WAS A LITTLE PILE OF VINTAGE KALINE CARDS MY MOM FOUND ON A BUSINESS TRIP. AL SEEMS TO BE A LITTLE UNDERRATED BY COLLECTORS BUT THAT'LL HAPPEN WHEN YOU SPEND YOUR CAREER IN DETROIT
2020-21 DONRUSS OPTIC JOHN COLLINS
CATEGORY - HAWKS
I STILL LOVE JOHN COLLINS BUT I THINK I'VE HIT A LIMIT TO THE NUMBER OF BASE CARDS I NEED OF HIM. ONLY SHINY CARDS OF COLLINS FOR ME NOW. I DO WONDER IF THE SPORTSBOOK AD IN THE BACKGROUND WILL CAUSE A SCANDAL IN THE FUTURE LIKE THE MARLBORO ADS FROM THE 80S DO NOWADAYS
UP NEXT: THINGS GET REALLY SHINY ALL OF A SUDDEN. LIKE SUPER EXTRA SHINY
