Printing Plates !

With Tom Glavine being the center of my collection I tend to chase any card I see that is not in my collection (to a certain price limit of course). Same thing for printing plate. Some see them as "cards" but luckily, also a lot of collectors seem to ignore them which makes it a little easier to get my hands on these 1-1 cards (or 4-1 cards as some see them). With Topps Triple Threads out I was able to add 2 more to my collection, meet the Magenta and the Cyan versions !!


Furthermore, I recently got my hands on another 2008 Moments & Milestones plate, a Cyan version as one of the above !


Do you guys chase the printing plates as well for your collection or simply ignore them ?

    Congratulations on your pickups. I don't actively chase printing plates... but have no problem adding them to my collection when the opportunity arises.

    Plates are cool. I always love how scuffed they are. Yanks plates are tough to find at a reasonable price.

    I wouldn't turn one down if I came across it cheap cheap, but I am not actively pursuing them at this point.

    Love the plates. Glavine looks a bit evil in the magenta version though,

    I don't mind having some for my collection. If the price is right of course.

    I've become a big fan of printing plates. i'd love to get all 4 for one card. i think the most I have for any one card is two.
