Beautiful card!
Donruss/Leaf before Panini took over was a whole different beast and should be treasured.

Yes, I love picking up Donruss/Leaf Memorabilia cards from Baseball and Football when I get the chance

Absolutely thrilled to add this to my PC. Been wanting an on card rookie auto within my budget and saw this for auction last week and had to get it. Sold my Klay Thompson Immaculate Rookie RPA, so had some money to play with. I have a Prizm Purple Crystals Rookie Auto and although I love that card and don't want to part with it, it's a sticker auto.

Recent pickups from the last 2 weekends of card shows.

Haven't taken photos of the raw stuff I've picked up yet, so limiting my contributions here to packs and slabs.

Nice addition to my vintage Topps graded HoFers with this 1962 Alex Karras:


And a few packs for the pack collection.

Adding these two 2015 Chrome Orange Refractor packs from retail hangers mean I have at least 1 Orange Refractor pack from 2010 to 2015.
Unfortunately no stars in the inside of them, but still cool to have.


Also added Hobby packs to the pack collection from 2019 AAF. I already had packs from retail blasters.

Recent pickup from this last weekend's card shows.

I'm not sold on his attitude or gameplay, and as an AZ native I can confidently say the organization is trash, but I didn't pay much so why not.

More slab pickups of my usual Topps/Chrome/Optic HoF or possible future HoF

1975 HoFer


1980 HoFer

2012 Future HoFer in a 1965 design


2013 possible future HoFer RC


2018 possible future HoFer RC

Love picking up Hall Of Fame game used cards considering we don't even get game used cards of active players anymore. This is the Emerald Parallel numbered to 5

HoF Game Used Pre-Panini Certified? Yummy (chef's kiss)

Picked up from the weekend's card show.

I think the seller had it priced from a year or two ago before he got drafted 4th overall by the Colts, because it was literally 1/6th of what they go for raw on eBay. Just a lucky cheap pickup. I originally got it to flip since I don't do Pro Set Power (I only do current Pro Set that looks like 1989 or 1990), but I will probably hold (for now) just in case he ends up being good. Will never stay in my PC. If I can upgrade to an Optic auto I'll offload it.

Upper Deck Jersey cards from the 90's are some of my favorite cards. Got this in today

Picked up a few cheap slabs at a card show on Saturday.

Jim Brown Game Used Patch Numbered to 10

The Bus RC


Orange Refractor of a fan favorite

Picked up at a local Toy Show for $8. Hard to beat that for an Arizona Super Bowl exclusive with a print run of 5000.

I've got the full white jersey version of this from Series 20, so that's cool I've got the variant now too.
One of the coolest figs, where he's diving for pylon.

Pickups from a card show on Nov 5th

HoFer in a PSA 8 is an upgrade. Can now move my PSA 4 to my sell/trade box


Bears Fan Fave QB RC


Solid young defensive player RC parallel

Saw this and had to have it. The first 25 are auto'd. Game Used Helmet cards aren't as plentiful as jerseys in the general and I love the patch.

Not new but something I assumed would be appreciated.



Both 1/1s

To keep with the mailday theme my newest football pickup.

WOW! VERY NICE!!

I wanted to get something of CMC and this really caught my eye. I love the look of it. Numbered to 10

Very excited to add this to my collection! I love early 2000's memorabilia cards and I saw this and knew I had to have it

Got my 1st Purdy rookie. Always love Obsidian. This is the Purple Parallel numbered to 100

Football spoils from my local big state show. McFarlanes and cards

TOYS
McFarlanes were all $7.50 each because I bought toys in bulk

Classic Alstott who was a PC of mine when I was a kid.


HoF OLineman. You don't see OL in McFarlanes often, so this is cool


Emmitt Cardinals. Turns out there's 4 versions. I had the same one as this one, which is the white jersey with red gloves. Oh well now it goes to the sell/trade bin.


CARDS
Some of these I bought outright, some I traded for.

I like my errors/corrections and 1989 Pro Set is king of them. I had to pick this up for $5


1992 Topps Emmitt


Don't care for the slab/slab company. I just like the Gold cards, and a Brady Rookie reprint gold is cool.


2015 Melvin Gordon Chrome RC


Easy $10 Brady 2020 Optic base pickup


And the card I'm most excited about, was this Fitz Chrome RC 9. I had offloaded a Finest 9 RC a while ago because I don't care about Finest, and said if I got rid of it I had to get a Chrome. Just happened to be coincidence I saw one and traded for it.

As a Cowboys fan, thought this was a cool pickup

Got this in today

Hey Frank what's up. Love the videos. Hey I know you go to a lot of card shows for your YouTube channel. If you ever run across 2015 prizm draft picks football stained glass #92 Devin Smith. I would but it from you. I don't have any kind d of card shows where I live in California and I can't find one on the internet so I'm thinking it's in a bargain box somewhere just waiting to be picked up. You can hit me here or on your YouTube videos I watch them all and I'll hit you up. Anyway keep up the videos.

Thanks
Tommy
