Eclecticicity

Today friends we have a lesson in eclecticity.  I'm not sure that is a word but maybe more a state of mind.  A state of mind that is achieved when you receive a package from SpastikMoos.  I sent a Shyrone Stith card that Tim needed and in exchange...BAM

 Who shot JR?

 Ponies

 Ren and Stimpy

 Baseball delight

 Graded Goody

 Willinghammer

 He looks tough

 Hoop it up!

 Chrome Pigskin

 Big Apple #'d Gunslingers

My favorite of the package is this two colored surprise.


I will keep my eyes open for more Stiths, Smarts, and Seneca's

Spahntastic

This lovely came from AJ along with some other goodies and an SEC NETWORK HAT!!!

My thanks gentlemen!

Johnnys Trading Spot Swings Back

I had recently performed a Braves drop on John from Johnnys Trading Spot.  This week he swung back-pretty mightily.

 Vintage insanity

 It just keeps coming

 And even more

 Graded Gems from the year before my birth

 and of my birth

 It was quite a pile on these

Time has added this fantastic Stache

John-Look for a return shot from me in the near future.

COMC Delivery

I have picked up a few things on COMC lately.  Here are a couple:

 A slew of local MLB vet Steve Woodard

 A minor league Woody

 I was very happy to find the Detlef below.  I dabble in Mavs and have always wanted this one!

HAVE A GREAT MONDAY!!!

Trade from Remember the Astrodome

I had the pleasure of receiving some cardboard from Marc over at Remember the Astrodome.  I have sent some Astros-they are on the way.  He sent some great mascots and a couple of Willinghammers to seal the deal!

Thanks again Marc!  Hope you enjoy what I sent your way! 

USA USA USA

Winds of Change

So it's been a month since I last posted-that was for the wrap up of the Deal or No Deal Game.

I've been busy since then organizing, sorting, and getting to work on shipping cards.  I'm thinning out my collection to only the stuff I really want.  The vintage, Josh Willinghams, Mascots, and some other miscellaneous odds and ends.

I can't say I won't be buying any new cards simply because I like being able to pass cards on others and that's too hard to pass up for me.  However, active trading and pursuing is over for me-for now.

I may put out some feelers for cards I have remaining that don't have a destination already in mind.

The plan is too start in earnest on vintage collecting. Finish with 69 Topps and then work backwards from 1975.  Hopefully, this will lead to new material for the blog and a little bit of new inspiration for me.

One more housekeeping note-I have given up on the colored parallel frankenset.  I appreciate those that contributed and I have decided to have a contest for one of the cards offered up a prize.  Details to come soon but it will be nice and simple.
