JULY Pickups
 

I RARELY buy packs, but was in Target today and grabbed a few Topps series 2.

Pulled a Kris Bryant RC...base card, but not a bad pull.

Bryant
 

He sure had a decent day yesterday

Got the card on the right from our local Peasant/Forum Owner Mr. Leon Luckey. It is the 5th card Beckett ever graded in testing before any cards where graded for the public. The 007 serial #ed card was bought from a former Beckett employee a few months ago.

I usually stay away from graded cards but had to make an exception for these two.

Topps Becekett
 

Neat item Ben

Great cards Ben! That left hand middle finger is almost set up nicely....:D

A Hot Dog and two Cokes
 

A few obscure rookie year cards. A 1987 David Berg Hot Dogs Greg Maddux (just pulled from a sealed set) and a 1990 Coke Frank Thomas & Sammy Sosa.

Great pick ups Mike. Really like that Clemens.

I recently bought a box of 1994 upper deck. The original purpose for buying this box was to maybe pull a mantle/griffey signature insert. After I received the box I realized the autographs were inserted into retail boxes, and my box was a hobby box. DOH. Anyways, I busted the box and it ended up being a really good box:

Two A. Rod rookies, a two cards from Jordan's midlife crisis of a baseball career. Back in 1994 this would have been about the best box ever, but A Rod has cooled off quite a bit and The Jordan insert card sells for $7.00 on comc.

HOF Pick-Up
 

Rookie cards are a big part of my collection. I thought I had RC's for each of this year's HOF Inductees. After looking through my cards, I realized that I did not have one for Pedro Martinez. I found a nice inexpensive one on EBay. It arrived today (Wed)... Card is not scratched, minor slab abrasions magnified by scan.

I now have rookie cards of all four 2015 Inductee's
