The Cardboard Gods must have been reading my blog, because I just so happened to write a post a few weeks ago on these awesome cards.
If you enjoy them as much as I do, here's your chance to own the complete twenty-eight card set. The checklist contains a solid collection of players, including several of my favorite players: Greg Maddux, Tony Gwynn, Frank Thomas, Hideo Nomo, Ozzie Smith, and Kirby Puckett.
How do you enter? It's simple...
A. Follow my blog and (in the comments below) tell me which of the twenty-eight players (in the set) is your favorite for one contest entry.
B. At the card show, I stood at this guy's dime boxes for nearly three hours and purchased 380 cards. How many of those cards were new additions to my Tony Gwynn binder? Anyone who guesses correctly will receive an additional contest entry.
C. There were a few vintage cards from that dime box purchase too. Guess the year of the oldest card(s) I picked up. Everyone who guesses correctly will receive an additional contest entry.
D. And I'll give you one final opportunity to earn a bonus contest entry. In my card show post, I showed off nine of the 380 dime box cards. One of those nine was a card on my top 10 wantlist. What card do you think I'm talking about? Click here to see the post. Everyone who responds with the correct answer will receive an additional contest entry.
I'll post the answers to the bonus contest entries this Friday at around 3pm (PST), so you have between now and then to get submit your responses. This weekend, I'll throw everyone's entries into random.org and hit randomize five times. The person on top wins the set.
Best of luck! Happy Tuesday and sayonara!
