  • I picked up a random 1600 count box full of mostly older baseball cards at an antique mall today. Let's see if we can find any nice rookies or stars inside!

    I recently sold off a large portion of my sealed collection and came across some random loose packs. Since I was only selling boxes and sets I decided to walk down memory lane and open some of the random loose packs and I pulled a 92 Score Joe DImaggio Autograph. Made my day because I knew I was going to take a beating on the other stuff I was selling.

    Those 01 Topps are good to look out for Ichiro and Pujols. I bought a box about this size for $7 on marketplace for the fun of the hunt. Found an Ichiro rookie that sold for $45. Not much else but I got a few hundred $1 cards to add to my collection. It's fun to search thru boxes from years when I was not collecting and way more fun than buying a new pack/box for $20-50 and hoping for luck.

    The Turk Wendell picture has a much better story. He was nuts. He used to jump the lines to and from the mound, but it was very exagerted. He would come out, draw on the mound dirt, then lick his fingers. Slammed the rosin bag down before facing hitters, then between EVERY INNING he brushed his teeth in the dugout. That picture is of him brushing his teeth in the dugout between innings. Had to be the most superstitious player of all time.

      I remember him well. Whenever he would pitch, the cameras would be glued on him. I think describing him as "nuts" was big understatement. I like know where he is living now and what he has been doing. Turk's initials were O.C.D.

    The Drysdale cards are interesting. They are 1993 Nabisco and part of a set of 6 HOFers (Banks, Drysdale, Hunter , Stargell, B. Robinson, Niekro) Autograph cards you could get via mail with $5 and 2 box tops. I got and still have the Banks. These are interesting because they are not signed and seem larger like cut incorrectly form a sheet. Drysdale passed away during this promo and his card brings a premium, not sure if it is because he didn't finish signing them all, or because his death brought some attention to them. Cool.

It's worth a few minutes checking out even for non football fans. I'll spare details incase you check into it. After seeing what he went through, definitely brings alot of truth to saying nothing is impossible if you put your mind and heart to it.

    Back in the 90's when I was big in collecting a friend of mine came over with a binder he had bought at a garage sale for 10 bucks. The older women was selling off stuff that her deceased husband had left behind and this friend of mine only bought the binder because he knew I collected cards. So I opened it up and the first page had 2 Micky Mantle autographs, 2 Ted Williams autographs, 2 Johnny Mize autographs. 1 Willie May's autograph and 1Hank Aaron autograph and1 Jim Palmer autograph. The 2nd page was all Dodgers, Sandy Koufax rookie and a Don Drysdale rookie and a Maurie Wills rookie all 3 were in mint condition. I asked my friend how much he wanted for the binder and he said 20 bucks. I couldn't get the 20 out of my wallet fast enough. I ended up making over 2 grand off of the binder which I used on my Joe Montana collection.
