A cool "little" card that someone may enjoy!

Trying to get out of football but while cleaning out I discovered this little gem. 2011 Tristar Obak Football Charles Follis Green Mini-06/25!!!!!!

Mr. Follis was apparantly the first Professional African American Football Player! Pretty neat. Just leave a comment if you want to get into this card!

Mine is green though!

A little before my time...courtesy of Uncle Tiny

A lot of my collecting interests are slowly but surely turning to HOF'ers and Vintage.  The new stuff just doesn't thrill me like it used too. I'm finding myself be more and more selective of what I add to my collection these days.

I have a few headhunters out there that scope things out for me that they think I may like. One of those peeps is my buddy Uncle Tiny from CCW.  He finds some nice stuff for me, so we do some deals periodically.  One of the surprises I recently received from Unc was this Yellow HOF Auto Postcard of William Jennings Herman.  It was first ever HOF signed postcard so it was quite a neat surprise!  Now I just need to be a good student and do some homework on this HOF'er!  Thanks Uncle Tiny

A post that's not about Jack Cust

You will find a picture of him below but this post is definitely not about Jack Cust! 

Sam over at the Daily Dimwit runs great group breaks and I have taken part in quite a few.  I recently snagged the Braves and got the Royals as a random.  I called for Royals Mojo prebreak.

Good karma rolled out on this one as the box of Unique provided not one great double jersey of Chipper and Brian but also produced the magical gem(scan stolen from Sam).
By far the best Braves card in my PC. Thanks to Sam for putting on this break. Chipper arrived home today and he is here to stay!

A Redus Holy Grail Piece Arrives

So most of you know, I am kind of a Gary Redus Supercollector. He's local and a good guy.  Was a solid ball player too!  A lot easier to supercollect Redus than say Nolan Ryan or Derek Jeter.

Today I acquired one of the major gems of the Redus checklist-An on card Starting Lineup figure.  I still don't know how Redus got a figure. Maybe he had dirty pictures of someone at Kenner?  Anyways, I'm glad he did! 

I have tried for this figure many times over and for whatever reason never could get my hands on it! It's not that rare but now it's home with the only Redus SC I know-ME!!
