Crackin Wax Charity Loot !!

A few weeks back, Crackin Wax held a group break for charity (St. Jude Children's Hospital), so double the fun, we help charity and get some cards as well ! So I quickly participated and ended up with the Mets for hopefully some Glavine cards !! Here's what arrived at my doorstep !

First-up, some beautiful Gold Label cards, I really like these and trying to complete the set (only just started) so these are very helpful !!

Next-up, two Topps Reserve, also a nice set I must admit, first time I came across these.

The two "hits" of the break, a awesome Cut to the Chase (I already have it so up for trade!) and even an auto card was included, Jefferies, to be honest I have never heard of him (up foer trade as well).

Glavines were included !! Here are two nice ones !!

Lastly, two Topps Finest, Blue Chips !

This was all just a selection as it was a big pile ! I am looking forward to contribute to charity next time !!

Tribute Loot from Nachos Grande

Topps Tribute is one of the high-end sets that I really like but never had the pleasure of opening up a box myself (way too expensive!). Luckily, Chris at Nachos Grande held a Tribute group break recently and I was lucky enough to get the Yankees while even luckier to get allocated the Tigers as well (hopefully some Verlander!).

This morning the loot arrived. Let's have a look !! Let's start with the base cards, I received four, two Yankees and two Tigers !! Here are my two Tigers, Ty Cobb and Verlander, great looking cards !!

The two Yankees were Sabathia (nice!) and Rodriguez (I am probably not the only Yankee fan who doesn't really like him...).

I received three more cards ! One green parallel of Babe Ruth !! Great card !!

The last two cards were two great relics ! The first one a Tribute Transition, Cecil Fielder, moving from the Tigers to the Yankees !!

The last card of the pack was another great one, a bat relic of Al Kaline !! A real beauty !!

That was it, some great loot in my view so I was lucky this time !! Thanks Chris for organizing another cool group break, looking forward to the next one !!

Thanks for visiting my blog everyone !!
