A few weeks ago, I contacted Ryan G over at This Card Is Cool about setting up a possible trade. I figured I'd have a bunch of cards on Ryan's want lists, especially his Super Collection. I pulled a bunch of cards I had that I figured Ryan might need...and as it turns out, he didn't need many of them! That's a true testament to Ryan, who is is trying to collect a card of every set ever produced. No small task. The fact that he is 17% there is pretty amazing.
I did manage to find a handful of cards he needed, including a relic and an autographed card of Randy Velarde, which I had a spare from a past TTM success. Ryan sent me a 2008 A&G Melky Cabrera relic and a handful of other Yanks, including some 2011 Topps Attax and a sweet Munson National Chicle.
Thanks for the trade, Ryan!
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
And thank you! Your stuff is coming up soon. Always happy to get more oddballs!
