Todays Card of the Moment is brought to you by the color red. And the color yellow. And the number 69. And also Mark from Marks Ephemera. I did a trade post about some cards Mark sent me a while ago and mentioned that he also sent a few cards that I wasn’t showing because […]

A few posts ago I had mentioned that I had picked up some cards in the electronic version of the quarter bin. I happened to be buying some cards I needed for my 1960 set off of this one dude on Sportlots and noticed that he had a bunch of cards listed at $0.30 and […]

1961 Topps #24 Ken Johnson Today’s Card of the Moment comes from one of my least favorite vintage Topps sets. I don’t really know what exactly it is that I don’t like about it. It actually isn’t a terrible looking design. In fact, the bright colors and crisp lines of the bottom bar is actually […]

1961 Topps #351 Jim King Today’s Card of the Moment is about 95% of a 1961 Topps Jim King card. Jim spent 11 years playing Major League baseball with 6 different teams. The majority of that time was spent in the nations capital, but he also made stops in Chicago (both the North Side and […]

I haven’t done a Card of the Moment in quite a spell it seems. I guess all of my moments have been taken up by the on going Gint-A-Cuffs shenanigans. Well, we’ll fix that. I’ll just dip into that awesome pile of beat up vintage that sent my way via Chris from Project ’62. 1961 […]

A while back, I had posted about a TTM success that I recently got back from former Red Sox pitcher and current wack-o Bill “The Spaceman” Lee. Chris from Project ’62 had contacted me about getting a copy of the Bill Lee card for his Bill Lee player collection that he started last year. Now, […]

I know Memorial Day is supposed to honor the memory of those who died in service to their country, but how’s about we also give a hearty thanks to those who didn’t die. Here’s to you folks. Summer is unofficially here.

Since Topps is apparently taking its sweet-ass time activating the Million Card Giveaway, I thought I’d showcase some old cards that I got recently from Sportlots. Dollars to donuts they’re probably much cooler than anything I’m going to get from that giveaway anyways. I ended up with 39 cards for around $20 with shipping. Not […]

I know my part of Jersey hasn’t seen as much snow as some of our neighbors to the south, but my back is still a-barkin’ from shoveling on Saturday and now we’re expecting to get another 12-18″. What do you do when it seems like Mother Nature has it out for you? Write about some […]
