So I have made several trades over the (short) life of the blog, and each and every one has been great. The same is true for the trade I made with Greg from Plaschke, Thy Sweater is Argyle. Have you read his blog? If not, I highly suggest you check it out, especially if you are a Dodgers fan!
The cards we traded had a ways to travel--around 3,000 miles, in fact. They arrived in great condition, although a bit jet lagged.
I sent Greg a bunch of Dodgers cards, including an Eric Karros GU jersey, and in turn he sent me a whole bunch of Phillies cards and a sweet Roy Oswalt jersey card--which I especially like because it is my first Oswalt relic. He also sent a really nice Turkey Red Zimmerman rookie card. See below...
I love the Zimmerman, especially the red border. And the fact that it is his rookie is icing on the cake. Awesome card! In addition to a bunch more great cards, he also sent a 1968 Topps Ricardo Joseph:
Thanks for the trade Greg, I look forward to more trades in the future.
In other In the Mail news, Ted from Crinkly Wrappers had his Year End Clearance and he sent a bunch of cards over. Thanks, Ted! I have a whole bunch of Blue Jays cards coming your way.
Included in the lot I received was this Jon Link chrome card. Night Owl, if you don't have it, of course I'll add it to your Jon Link collection!
Have a great night everyone!
I believe the only thing I'm missing from my "massive" Link collection are fancy-pants cards like the blue chrome autograph item.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed the cards. Thanks again!
