TCDB trade with terrbear5951

I got another trade done with terrbear5951 on TCDB.  I got some PC goodies.

2018 Topps Series 2

I wasn't able to find a blaster box of Series 2, so I had to settle for a hanger box.  Not much to see here.

Base set

Foil card - What has happened to foil cards?  It seems like they are not as plentiful as they used to be in retail packs/boxes.

Iowans in the MLB

Catchers

Future player collection??

Cubbies

Royals

Boy, I sure do miss this guy in KC!

TCDB trade with Petros56

I am behind on my blogging, and trading for that matter.  I think it's great that I get a lot of proposals, but I barely have the time to do what I would like to do with trading.  I'm "trying" to do two a week; I feel that is all the bandwidth I have right now.  This was a trade we got done awhile ago, but, again, just getting around to getting it up on the blog.  I got several cards I needed for the 2016 Topps Wrigley Field insert set.

This week's mail

This week's mail is exciting because these all happen to be people who I have sent requests to and wrote off my first attempt, and tried again and succeeded!

Weekly TTM's

It's about time some little white envelopes started coming in.  I have been sending out quite a bit of requests lately, and they were coming in at a regular rate, but now, they've slowed way down.  

Brad Brach is currently with the Orioles.  He's their closer, and he was an All Star in 2016.

This next one was a request from last year.  Corey Spangenberg is currently with the Padres.  He was sent to the minors briefly this year, but currently serves as a bench player for the Padres.

Clayton Kershaw

Quite a while back, I saw many fellow TTM'ers getting Clayton Kershaw's autograph.  Someone even commented I should try to get Clayton Kershaw.  Well, I decided to pull the trigger, and I never got anything back.  Over 2 years later, I got my card back, unsigned, with this insert.

Surprise, surprise...a NPN envelope from Topps!!!

This was a pleasant surprise last week...a NPN package from Topps.  I am always pumped when I get these and wondered what it was!  Well, here it is...an it's even one for my PC!!

COMC spring cleaning, part 2

Part 2, player collections awesomeness.  I'm "trying" to get an autographed card and a relic card of every player and every team they've been on.  Granted, some players won't have those requirements, but almost any modern day player in my PC will, but it will take time!
