Forum: Baseball Card Collecting & Memorabilia

Put all pack pulls here. Please no boxe packs just single bought packs. If you get anything good please place a scan. To start off I bought a Goudey and Allen & Ginter pack. They were worth it. In the Goudey pack I pulled a Derek Jeter, Troy Tulowitzki RC, Alfonso Soriano, Troy Glaus, Nick Johnson,...

Post your August successs here!

I spent a good part of the weekend taking my cards out of binders and putting them into 700 count boxes to clear up some shelf space. After it was said and done, I realized that I no longer needed these cards. They were commons from 87-93, just about the time when everyone who is now over 25 was...

Since I don't think we have one for 2010 yet, I'll make one now. To start: At Red Sox Rookie Autograph session: Casey Kelly (SS) Junichi Tazawa Jose Isgleas (I can't spell it to save my life) Jim Lonborg Kyle Weiland Felix Doubront

Today there was a scheduled appearance by Carlos Pena of the Raysat a phone store. Naturally, this was run as smoothly as the now annual FanFest autoigraph fiasco. Pena is inside the store. Fans have to wait outside in an area about 100 feet away..it's in the 90s and humid. Instead of a line...

What is your favorite Topps base set of the 1980s, and why? Is it the design that you love, the player selection or the photos? Maybe the reverse side of the card, or because it's the first year you collected? Vote in the favortie FLEER set poll also! And vote in the Donruss poll!

Family Autographs Listed below is an attempt to show players and others that have a “family connection” in baseball. Baseball, unlike the other major sports, can brag about its family lineage. Fathers and sons http://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Dick_Ellsworth, brothers...

I generally---actually never---come to this site to express my displeasure or disgust about anything, and believe me, there are a lot of things that irk me (mainly pack searching). Today, however, an incident occured that has left me no choice but to vent my frusturation: Today, April 1st, is...

Has anyone bought anything from Mets Amazin Memorabilia? I picked up a Nelson Figueroa jersey on Ebay and was interested in looking up the authenication code. The jersey has a hologram logo on it from Mets Amazin Memorabilia, not MLB. The Mets website has a link for looking up authentication codes...

I will be attending a show on August 21st where Ron Kittle will be one of the autograph guests. He normally charges $25 TTM to sign his 84 Topps card via TTM. His fee is substantially less at the show. I can pick up his autograph for anyone here that is interested on that card. If you are...

Maybe Im over valuing their autographs, but I would assume something like this could go for so much more now that they are not around. http://cgi.ebay.com/Autograph-Signed-Mickey-Mantle-Billy-Martin-8x10-COA-/160456066752?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item255bed46c0

Who has had any luck in the ttm game this year

How do you make an 8x10 blow up of a baseball card? Thanks.

I'm going to the National this weekend and I'm probably going to be looking through some recent Topps cards. Last year there was a table with a ton of boxes of them for five cents a card. I tried looking online but couldn't find a price guide, and my most recent book goes up to 2002. What cards...
