Cal Ripken Jr.

[timzcardz]

As a Ripken collector myself, I do not believe that such a list exists.

In 2005, I went through Beckett online to compile a list, but I have many handwritten notes in my printout for cards that I have that Beckett did not list. I need to get these into my digital list yet.

Going beyond cards to "all things" well that list would become insane!

I don't even have a list of the non-card things that I have. I should though, so that may be this winter's project.

There's stuff that won't be on the lists because it's not really cataloged.

Being a star, there's going to be the usual assortment of Broders.


Hall of fame induction day covers lots more than shown on this page. Plus 1983 world series covers. http://baseballstamp.blogspot.com/se...l/Cal%20Ripken


Varieties in most late 80's -early 90's sets Mostly uncataloged, but still there.

88Score - 3 different die cuts
Most Upper deck - different holograms
Topps - some with back ink that reacts to UV or not. Especially 91.


Promotional items from various sets, especially the small regionals.

Ads he was in, both in magazines etc and sunday paper supplements.
Promotional items from products he endorsed. (I have some cups from some drug he endorsed, maybe a notepad or two too. )

There won't be a list for most of that stuff, there may be a few lists that cover some of it but I doubt it will ever ALL be listed.

Yep, Prinivil blood pressure medicine.

I have a couple of sleeves of the cups, note cubes, pen and pencil set, luggage tags, I think the reflex hammer, 1998 Topps in prinivil folders, advertising pieces, disposable gloves, etc., etc., etc.

Here's a small sampling of my Ripken non-card stuff.

I had no idea they made that much stuff for that promotion. I'm also glad someone remembered the name of the medicine before I had to hunt around for my partial sleeve of cups.


I'm really impressed with collections that focus on one player. I've never been able to have that much focus.

Nice selection Tim. I really like that last game photo with Jeter.

Here's a Nascar pin I have.

IMO the Streak somewhat unfairly defined him. He was a top 5 and possibly a top 3 SS independent of the Streak.

Pretty sure a list of Ripken, Jeter, Ryan, guys like that could be books in themselves. Either Beckett or Trading Card DB is only going to have 95-98% of what's out there. The interesting stuff is the other few percent.
