Apparently I am not the only one collecting baseball cards in Europe ! I am happy to have discovered that fellow Europeans Tony MC and Martyn have a blog called Cards Beyond Oceans and are based in the UK, not far from Holland (for those of you that have no clue where my tiny little country lies!).
They are organising what seems a fun contest with a great free give-away, a very nice auto/relic Duke Snider card (numbered to #10) !
In addition, he is planning for some additional give-aways so go and check out their blog Card Beyond Oceans here and join the contest !
Thanks for checking out my blog again, really appreciate the visits !
Thanks for the plug! There are actually quite a few UK collectors, most with blogs. Not sure about the rest of europe though.
ReplyDeleteI remember that contest. That is one sweet DUKE!
ReplyDeleteGod, I remember that contest as well. I actually won a different Snider from them.

ReplyDeleteLove me some Duke Snider. He was underrated.
