I recently completed one of the biggest trades in my baseball collecting career with Duane at
Democratic Roadkill, a trade largely focussed on my growing love for minis !! The trade completed several sets for me and gave me a big help with my quests to complete several of the Allen & Ginter minis sets. Given the size of the trade I will split it over several posts in the coming days !!
First up Joey Votto, a very important card. Why you may ask ? Well, it was the last 2011 Allen & Ginter card I still needed to complete the base set !!
Duane also helped me a lot with my quest to complete the Allen & Ginter 2008 base set although I still need a few so do check out my Want List ! Here are a few that Duane send me, two Rookie cards !
In addition to finishing my 2011 A&G base set, Duane also send me the last two 2012 A&G base cards I still needed so that set is now completed as well !!!
Duane also included some Masterpieces, black-border Masterpieces to be exact. I continue to feel this is one of the best sets I have come across in the last decade, beautifull cards !! Here's Verlander and Ford !
To close today's post Part 1 let me close with some 2008 SP Authentic, a set I am trying to complete and Duane helped me on my way with...only 3 more to go !!!
That's it for today. Be on the look-out for the minis part of the trade tomorrow !!! Thanks Duane for some great cards and thanks everyone for visiting my blog today !
Thanks!!! I realized one thing with your last post...I forgot to include the gypsy queen minis I had in the package...d'oh!
ReplyDeleteI also found a dealer at the local card show that has a pile of minis at .25/ and seeing as how i picked it clean of the good ginter cards....its now mainly GQ minis, including black and different back GQs.... I looked into what the different GQs minis were and with the variations and different backs, my head started hurting as to what all I needed to be looking for.... no collecting them for me... but i will see what rarer ones are in there for you if i make it back there.
MORNEAU! Sorry. I get excited whenever I see Twins. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing the set! Love the Masterpieces!

ReplyDeleteWhat could have been with my team
Duane is the king of Minis and that black bordered Verlander is amazing.
