Just when you thought the supersaturated coverage of Hurricane Irene was over, Team Phungo brings it back.
The local show was at the Exton Mall this past weekend and I ran out there for a few hours on Friday and added some baseball cards to my emergency supplies for this past weekend.
Highlights
2011 Topps Heritage Baseball Highlight Sketches Roy Halladay
Cards from games that I attended are right at the top of my want list. This card is easily my favourite one of 2011. I went over my $1 limit for inserts to procure this special card.
Super Veterans
1983 OPC Super Veterans Steve Carlton and Pete Rose
There were 1983 OPC star cards floating around at a couple of tables. I have been putting together the 83 SuperVets and these are nice cards to supplement that set.
Chrome n Serial Goodness
The Pearce and Wainwright were both from a dime box. Pearce isn't a star, but finding the #d/59 Chrome version of the card in a dime box could not be passed on. The Shula card is from the Masterpieces #d/75 Green Frame parallel set - went a full dollar for this card.
2011 Topps Inserts
There was one woman selling cards for a nickle, in addition to all these 60th anniversary inserts she also had a good selection of 2011 A&G.
The show was pretty small - I only hit 3 tables and there were maybe 5 others, but there was a good selection of different items.
I like those Super Vet cards. I think I have the Carleton but I really like that Rose card.
