30 Day Baseball Card Challenge

Write On Willie!


July has definitely been a slow month for me out at the flea market... which is probably a blessing in disguise, since my 2013 Archives Fan Favorite Autograph Set has been a constant drain on my cardboard budget.

But I haven't been completely shutout.  Two weekends ago, I picked up an "almost new" Sega Genesis for $5:


And on Sunday, I added this beautiful 1970 Topps Willie Mays to my "Cards with Character" collection for a dollar.  The guy didn't even charge me extra for the artwork.

Happy Tuesday and sayonara!

A Sega Genesis for 5 bucks?!?! That is a steal. Time for you to play some NBA Jam and Mortal Kombat.

Lol... not sure. But gotta love the girl/guy's creativity.

Yeah... but anytime I can add a vintage hall of famer on a card w/character for a buck... I'm in like Doug Flynn.

Seriously. I was debating on whether or not I should add this to my sketch card collection.

I see those games every time I hit up the flea market. Actually... my first purchase will be NHL 93. Loved that game in college.
