...but his trade packages have been erupting all over the internet.
I'm talking about Mr. Bob Walk the Plank. I've seen it on Twitter and on the blogs. He's cleaning out some trade bait and really sending some excellent cards.
I was the lucky recipient of two gorgeous cards of current Yankees that his desk threw up.
Whoa.
That was my reaction when I saw this Dellin Betances 2007 Topps Five Star autograph #d to 50. The signature area is very unique. It's almost superfractor-like. Add the fact that it's on card and about as thick as 10 regular cards, and it makes for quite a good looking piece.
Last but not least, a jersey card of the criminally under-collected Luis Severino from 2017 Donruss. Sure, it might be a plain gray swatch, but I appreciate Panini's efforts here to have a home plate-shaped area for the jersey. Not a bad design at all.
These were two excellent cards, indeed. Thanks, Matthew!
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.
I'm sure I'll unearth something else! Glad you liked.
ReplyDeleteNice group of cards. I got a stack for you that is ready to throw up too.
