A friend of ours, Zippy Zappy, has been unnecessarily generous to me as a fellow Yankee collector. As a small thank you, I did a sketch card for him of one of his favorite players, Yankees first round pick Eric Jagielo.
A lot of my sketch cards use the same design, with subtle changes. I like to make the players the focus, and shade a little in the background.
Here's to hoping that Jagielo moves quickly through the Yankees system, and finds himself in the Bronx as a long term solution at 3B.
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.
Thanks again for the sketch card AJ, it looks fantastic and is just begging for a signature (;)).
