Sexy, sexy junk wax. Anything 1995 and earlier, I'm down for. Ever since I pivoted to the collecting era of my childhood, my card happiness quotient has increased at least 40%.
Here's some piles that found my mailbox last week via TCDB.
That Ruffin is an actual refractor, 1994 Finest style. A very thrilling 1992 Topps DQ card. 1994 Fleer Sunoco release for the Van Slyke. Couple of 1991 Fleer stickers. And a modern junk card at the end there. Gotta grab the Reds Topps flagship, of course. Yang has precisely one major league at bat to his credit, from 2024. Now with the Cubs, he only has one spring training at bat this year, so he may join the 'one career major league at-bat club'. I hope not, since he didn't get a hit.
1992 Kellogg's Raisin Bran College Greats Horace Grant. Just a bit oversized, so they gotta be squeezed into pages. My pops went to Clemson, so I grew up watching them, even though I'm an Ohioan. Loved the Hoops Collect-a-Books as a yoot. And I associate 91-92 Fleer Bball with my grandma's house for some reason, so I'm actively trying to complete the set. Another set I'm trying to complete...
1991-92 Skybox Basketball. Oh man. The best junk era bball set of all-time. Maybe the best across all sports. Scored a nice pile. I'm at 547/659. When this is complete, a full blog treatment is in store. This set is bonkers with subsets.
Go Redlegs.
