Default Bazooka!

Finally found a 93 Bazooka set at a reasonable price, so I can add this to the rookie collection:

Thank you, Majordanby.

The Bazooka cards were, from what I gathered, available only via complete set. Not sure how they were distributed though. The Bazooka Helton is much tougher than his regular Topps Traded - that I know for sure!

Got these back from PSA today. Sadly they don't recognize either as variations. The Clemens is a Blue Streak error. The Ripkens are super rare with 13 known copies with 4 of those in PSA slabs. It is called the Mystery Card.

Ben,
Can you elaborate on the Ripken error? What am I looking for?

Thanks!

The main visual difference is the picture cropping on the Bill Ripken error. You can go on here and get more info. http://www.billripken.com/ Click on the Versions link and this card the Mystery Card is near the bottom.

Nice pickups Ben....I like the Clemens variation. It seems that this variation has been known for a while, so it is surprising that PSA does not recognize is as variation (like the 61 Fairly print defect) as it is both recurring and limited.

I like the Clemens error also. Many years ago it used to be listed as an error. Then one of the times Bob Lemke was removing print errors for SCD it got yanked. I don't think PSA has ever recognized it as an error version.

The Ripken cards show it is easy to get counterfeit cards graded by PSA. The opinion on the Bill Ripken website saying they are counterfeit is mine. It is poorly written but 100% correct. It was not intended to be put on a website it was a email to the site owner explaining how/why it is fake.

I found these two 90's inserts and an 87 Venezuelan sticker with a clean back (centering could be slightly better).

July Chantilly show plus a few fun weeks on eBay. Just bought my first place so this is going to be it for a while!

I complain about redundant Topps products quite a bit but I will give credit where credit is do. Topps Archives and Topps Heritage are both great year in and year out. Bringing back the legendary 1990 NNOF error was brilliant!





Kang! The only boxes I've opened all year have been Stadium Club. The photography is great and the signatures pop off the eggshell type sheen.





1957 Topps always looks great, even in 2015.



Fleer nailed it with their Essential Credential sets in the late 90s and early 2000s. Such trippy looking cards.



Finally nabbed one of these! Recently traded for a '56 Aaron right here on Net54 then came across this at a show. Couldn't resist!

Just picked up my second PSA 10 Tiffany Todd Greene RC(since I won it in August I will close out this months p/u)....now I have 2 of the 3 10's that have been graded. Why Todd Greene? I went to HS with him so I have worked to collect many of his more unique items over the years.
