It’s been fairly quiet in the trading card world. Latest action has been shipping cards out to COMC. This week while in Jamaica, I got a trade offer from Yankee98 on Beckett. We didn’t swap Jay Buhner or Ken Phelps, but I did unload some pinstripe wearers.
Feeling Vintage
Cheap Fun Breaks included a bunch of Mickey Mantel Living Set cards in a few mystery boxes a while back. So, I had a duplicate of it (#407). I also, apparently, had a duplicate of Jonathan Loaisiga (#270). Last card on the top row is a 2023 Allen and Ginter Gleyber Torres (#242).
Second row are 2023 Topps Archives Whitey Ford (#275) and Anthony Volpe (#286).
Montego Airlines
Ironic, we return from Montego Bay and I’m trading away a 2022 Bowman Sapphire Fidel Montero (#BCP74), the card in the center. To its left is a 2023 Topps Pristine Andrew Benintendi (#253) and to the right is a 2022 Bowman 1st Edition Trey Sweeney (#BPPF137)
Totally Cosmic
And if you like your 1993 Paul McCartney deep-cuts, here’s some Cosmic Chrome cards. Top row are from 2022: Gerrit Cole (#81), Josh Donaldson (#59), and a Gerrit Cole Rocket Arms insert (#RA1).
Second row are from 2023: Gerrit Cole again (#43), Carlos Rodon (#63), and Oswald Peraza (#84).
Hopefully, I’ll be back next weekend to post what I got!
