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.
You keep saying you wanna pick up your pace. You're pace is perfect imo. I enjoy when you find a card that sparks a memory. Even for whimsical reasons. I appreciate you.
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 p and g cards were very nice looking. Those sports sportsflix cards took me back down memory lane. I was a kid and thought they were the coolest cards ever made. This was a cool video thanks for sharing
I'm doing this too and it is a lot of fun. I usually find something that makes the "investment" worth it, but really it's a lot of fun to dig through these cards that look rough and find some diamonds in there. It never fails really. At a minimum, the hunt is fun!
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.
Turk came to Afghanistan on a USO tour with Marty Cordova and some football players and cheerleaders from Dallas. Turk, Marty and I went to dinner together at the chowhall. They were great guys.
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.
I personally hate 94 Donruss…I have so damn many of them. Im a horder when it comes to cards but if I ever throw any of them away the 94 Donruss is 100% going first lol
What I liked was the number of HOF'ers in the box. I am putting together a collection of each HOF for each year and some of those Baseball Great cards would be perfect.
I so much want to visit an antique store or garage sale and find a box or small collection,.. pay about $20 to $30 dollars and finding it to be the pick of a lifetime!!! Fingers crossed for this spring or summer.
That was a lot of fun-thanks for going through those with us! Totally worth 25 bucks. That first Sandburg was my fave-you really don’t see those much now.
Fun stuff! I like hearing the old names from the 80s and 90s. It's also helpful to hear what you find worthwhile in there. My dad left me boxes of cards.
6:39 Alex Smith isn't a high dollar card but his NFL comeback this past year is nothing short of remarkable. There's videos all over UA-cam about him. 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.
I went to HS with Ray Lankford... Compton transfer came in and ruled the gridiron. He helped us to a 13-1 record in 84. As good as he was in football he was even better at baseball.
Really fun box. Thanks for the multiple mentions. I do have that sandberg but I rarely come across that one. That bill van landingham was a first day issue and doubles it's value from a half cent to 1 cent.
A lot of sweet cards in that pickup Jon ! I'm a player/team collector and that's the way to go .Hey,if you want to get rid of that David Duval golf card let me know.Great video Jon , thanks for sharing !
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.
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.
Following the 1987 season for the Cardinals, Jose Pena was the premier top catcher in baseball going into 1988. For a few years he was the Cardinals' Yadi at the time.
Love your vids, i would be inter in the proctor & Gamble cards and if you have the unopened packs you spoke of. Lmk a price if you want to sell them. My friend larry is trying to fill a set.
These other comments are nuts on just $500.. each of those hall of Famer can be worth around that. Just find the buyer. Personally I wouldn't sell. I collected for the love and at the right time. 1973. I collected to 1995, but and this was smart, also backwards to the beginning of cards 1909.. I collected every card of my favorite team. Of course they weren't with many hall of Famers so I was able to get all of them. Chicago White Sox 1948- 2020. And 30 more 1909-47
Certainly a fun rummage. I'd bite at $25 if I found it. It really makes you wonder what goes on in peoples heads with what they choose to put in card savers lol.
Some people collect for the joy of actually collecting players they like. Just because something doesn't have a ton of monetary value doesn't mean it shouldn't be taken care of if you get joy out of it.
Sky box was always lots more than Topps or other brands. I think the skybox packs were like 2 or 3 times the price of other brands. They were marketed as primo cards but I rarely bought any of their cards due to the hefty price

Out of all the guys that do this, I enjoy your style the most!
Thanks Danny! I’m glad you enjoy it!
It's his awesome baseball color voice.
I love going thru old boxes like that too but it's pretty obvious someone picked all the good cards out.
You keep saying you wanna pick up your pace. You're pace is perfect imo. I enjoy when you find a card that sparks a memory. Even for whimsical reasons.

Thank you for the kind words.
Thank you for taking the time to go through the cards and adding great comments and card histories.

38:16 for 25 bucks I mean same for watching a movie minus the popcorn 😆 got to see something I've never seen before so pretty cool
You sound like a baseball announcer. Next video say…. “ just a bit outside.” 😂😂

I love watching these vids. Takes me back for sure. Def worth 25 bucks for the chance of a gem. Do it for the hobby👍🏻
Two of my favorite things #1 its a tie, your videos and my first born child.

You forgot about the black licorice.
Sounds a little insane
Love these superstitious stories...like Wade Boggs eating fruit loops before each game..

@@floydfanTN I do have that one already so ask away my friend...its a very cool card
I love that Sandberg and Maddux!
The Don Mossi card made it worth the money, he was a handsome man
Fun to go through cards like that. Great video! BUT none of them were my favorite card... all tied for last!
And a Yogi Berra! That lou brock and Henderson upper deck is the error card. No writing above plate
. Cool
Great content, love these cards learning a lot watching this video!
A lot of sweet cards in that pickup Jon !

Did you attempt to contact the lady he bought it from?
@@CapAnson12345 nope. Why would I?
@@bobwilliamson9562 If you have to be told why your not to bright.
@@dmac7403 - Do you mean “not too bright”, genius?
No, it was well worth your $25! I watched the entire thing and of course it’s all about the anticipation😎
That was great video! You dont happen to still have Steelers cards?
this box was well worth the $25! Those mid to late 90s inserts are what I love the most...nice video Jon!
Something is only worth the amount of money someone is willing to pay for it when it comes to collectibles
This is such a cool video. I hope you got your money back. New subscriber here and totally gonna watch it now
The good stuff was already picked out. I would be tempted to pick it up too at the chance of something.
Pretty much the fun is searching for psa 10 for common cards which is sometimes harder than you think the pop on certain cards low
You would have paid close to that for a movie ticket . I'd take the cards any day , more entertaining.
I truly enjoy your Radio Voice!
Gotta love the hunt!
Following the 1987 season for the Cardinals, Jose Pena was the premier top catcher in baseball going into 1988. For a few years he was the Cardinals' Yadi at the time.
would love the Carlton fisk 87 topps.
If Kurt Loder, MTV News, collected cards - that voice!
Fun stuff as always...was a pretty crappy box box but oh well. It was worth a risk.
lots of run of the mill stuff,could be nice addition for collector,no resale value
Great stuff as always love the Bonds King B and that McGwire, Hack Man Leonard
The Mike Schmidt cards were the bait. Hook, line and sinker.
You almost wonder if the seller made a strategic rip in the plastic #ThingsThatMakeYouGoHmmm
Love the old Mets cards was surprised to see some of the names lol
I went to my local swaptmeet found minor league cards of 2 jose canseco cards and Don Mattingly and rookie card of Dave Kingman etc.
Love the Juan Gone's!
Without hesitation I would buy that box for $25. I never see cards at thrift shops.
Might find the 1990 Frank Thomas NNOF in there 😂 hope it’s a good deal for $25
Nice . I want the Ty Cobb!!
Nice cards love these type of videos

ty cobb patch sold for $15 on ebay.. so there is most of the cost covered.. Good video!
I like those old timer great cards
Lyle Overbay! Or as I called him, Lyle "O-for the day!"
I watch a lot of your videos. I really enjoy them but i just noticed your voice has a John Tesh sound to it. Sounds good keep up the great work
Nice variety. Nothing mindblowing but some decent stars. Would be fun to go thru thats for sure.😊
I'm always intrigued when I find these boxes with toploaders lol
Had lots of that kind of stuff,liked the old Score Gold Rush,looks like run of the mill,good addition for collection,resale no way!
Is Erik Jabbs ur brother dude? Yalls cadence is the same
Earned a sub from me. Thanks for the free nostalgia
Clemente led all NL outfielders in errors 4 straight years,while Johnny Callison was leading all outfielders in assists 4 straight years.
Nice Donnie Baseball's!
1 question where?
Quick question are u Eric brother from jabs family’s?
Certainly a fun rummage. I'd bite at $25 if I found it. It really makes you wonder what goes on in peoples heads with what they choose to put in card savers lol.

1983 Topps Gary Gaetti RC
I feel like there was at least $25 worth of cards, and I would have purchased this box. I loved this video and did not think it was too long.
What would finding a NNOF (Frank Thomas) in this box do to your psychi?
A lot of nice Indians cards in this box! Maybe if they go up for auction I can add them to my collection.
The hockey inserts tend to be worth more than you would expect.
I would love to have the Sosa sports flix. I'm a big Cubs fan
Was wondering if that Topps was the Pujols and Ichiro card😆
I found a binder of mid 90's baseball at a flea market probably 25 pages nothing of any value they wanted 110$ I'd buy that for 25 25 times a day
Sky box was always lots more than Topps or other brands. I think the skybox packs were like 2 or 3 times the price of other brands. They were marketed as primo cards but I rarely bought any of their cards due to the hefty price
Love this stuff
I see the Bobby Richardson. My number one player I started collecting in 1962. I have 3 of his Rookies. Not in good shape.
I got a store by me that’s selling random thrown together basketball and football packs with lots of prizm cards for $1 a piece
I like this $25.00 box of sportscards
Yes
I am working on an 83 Topps set.
opened 2 boxes 90 topps looking for the no name on front didnt find it the search goes on
I'd be interested in buying the Ricky Henderson cards if you want to sell them.
you got STUNG!!!
The Bonds Awards winner...a nice card for sure! You really can't beat the $25 price tag on this box.
That was rooting for it for you to pull a trout out of that pack bro
sweet
They were selling the penny sleeve for 99 cents and the Tony Pena for a penny.
For $25 you can get a lot of vintage gems!
Turk Wendell brushed his teeth constantly. It was his gameday ritual or something
