Welcome to my blog!!!

I have collected baseball cards and autographs over the years. I still have boxes full of cards (as well as newer cards) that are just sitting there. So, I have decided to see how many of them I can get autographed. I use through the mail as my preferred route for this adventure. I also have an account on Zistle and The Trading Card Database for trading purposes (stevienicks77).

I think I've gone crazy...

When I started to collect again several years ago, I decided I was in a financial place to try to put a set together on my own, via buying, trading, eBay, COMC, etc.  I have now decided to try to get at least one complete set of cards like Heritage, Opening Day, etc.  This year's project is Gypsy Queen!  I bought a hobby box at a new LCS near my house.  Here's what I got:


Token SP
Personal collection goodies





Inserts



Other stuff

Logo swap

Cody Bellinger Bazooka back

Missing Nameplate
Indigo
Autographs


Chrome insert pack - These are nice looking cards...even got a Indigo one!



Last, but not least...a huge hit!  My second ever 1/1!!!

A quick trip to my local LCS

I was "down south" the other day, and decided I had a little time to hit up my favorite LCS.  I was looking for some Bowman since it was just released, and also ended up with some other goodies!

This is one of my "white whales" from my youth...I couldn't find it for trade or a good price on COMC, so I went to see how much it was at the LCS, and I jumped.

Bowman Inserts
