I want to thank those who have helped me reduced my want list over the past few weeks.

First we have cards from gcrl, of cards as I see them:

Cardboard from the baseball card blogging godfather, Night Owl:

A nice lot of cards from Matt at Sport Card Collectors:

 Next up are cards from Judson, the author of My Cardboard Habit:
Wait, that's not what Judson sent. Actually, I can't find the picture of the cards Judson traded me. Sorry, Judson!  So, I just inserted my favorite card from the set instead. It is what it is.

 Lastly, we have a delivery from everybody's favorite dime box scavenger, Nick:
Many of the above bloggers sent extra Cubs cards my way with the Topps Fire cards for my set build. My favorite was this Rod Beck card. He was quite a character. RIP Shooter.
I believe this Beck card came from Nick.
Thanks for all the help, guys!

If you have any of the above cards sitting in your collection, please let me know.  I would love an opportunity to work out a trade.

  2. Even though this set never caught fire with me, there's no denying the Rizzo is hot stuff!
