Ohio bloggers go to a card show-- part 2


After much delay and the trip to another show....here is the last pic from my trip to the Mansfield Ohio show.  If not for the fact that I had these already scanned in, there would be no more talk of that show.  The Pacific legends cards are all from the one good dime or quarter box...not sure which it was now.  The 2 slabbed cards were the final cards of the $5/ autos from desperate for money guy and the 1960 Yankee coaches and 78 Nolan were both wantlist needs bought for less than sticker price, of course it turns out the Yankee coaches card is one I already possessed so it is now up for trade, make me an offer.

As was mentioned earlier I was able to go to another show this past week, the huge quarterly show at the Franklin County Veterans Memorial hall in Columbus, Ohio.  There I got to meet the world famous baseball dad, who lets be honest is a way better blogger than I will ever be so I suggest you head to his site to read about the show and even view a current photo of the both of us.  It was great meeting Jack and his son Josh, and I am quite hopeful we will get to meet up again.

I picked up a pile of minis from a quarter box $12 worth to be exact, nothing to exciting, gave some to Jack and picked up some various Gypsy Queens to trade so if you are collecting the GQ minis either wait for a trade post or send me a message and I will let you know what I have to trade.  I did take advantage of the many, many many tables of vintage to knock some needs for my 1960 collection including finishing the first 2 pages in the binder.   Now let me just add that a more organized person would remember to bring his lists to a 100 table show, of course I am no such person and as such I left all of my lists at home, but there were a few cards that I could remember that I needed, the 3 missing cards from the first 20 cards of the set: 1 3 18.
 And there they are the much needed #1 Early Wynn and #3 Joe Adcock, add them to the magnificent Master and Mentor card featuring Willie Mays and Wally Moon and that is a nice page of cards.  Most importantly it means that page 1 of the 1960 set binder is now full!


of course I now realize I forgot to rotate these scans before I saved them so they are not so easy to read. My last need for page 2 was #18 the Dodgers team photo checklist, which because you got Sandy Koufax in the team photo means time to pay a premium plus its unchecked so more premium but its now mine and the page is now filled!  

This has to be the most complete page of quality page of players/cards in the set, and somehow Topps managed to get another Wally in the next nine, so yes there is a Wally on each of first 2 pages. Who knew that there were that many Wally's to feature on cards.  Its safe to say that the worst player on the page is none other that Ernie Broglio, well maybe not, best to say none of these are bad players, and hmmm what is that he is famous for.... yep being the player the Cubs got when they traded away some dude named Lou Brock.  The most lopsided straight up trade in MLB history???  I think so.
I may have to switch up and go back to hockey in my next post.....  with the horrible start to the Blue Jays season and with the Penguins finally knocking out the Islanders in the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs....I think it will be more enjoyable to focus on the productive sport for a bit..... of course I my rate I may not post again for a few weeks so who knows.  
Until then ....lets make a deal!

Ohio bloggers go to a card show....... part 1


A card show in Mansfield Ohio was mentioned in the comments of one of my previous posts.  The blogger know by all of us as just the Baseball Dad or as I know him now.... Jack....  mentioned that he was planning on going to said show.....  which led to the idea of hey that show is only 45 minutes or so from me.... what a great time to meet up with a fellow blogger....  and even better....  another ohio blogger.... Steve B and I had already met up went to a card show before so this would be the perfect opportunity for all 3 of us to meet.  As with most everyone in the blogosphere both of us had already traded with Jack...so this was going to be cool.  Hold on a little back story.....  Steve and I actually only live a couple of miles from each other with the same little podunk town for our Post Office....  I mean what are the odds of that?  and we had never met before and I think it took us a couple of years after trading emails to actually meet.  Found out its cool to go to card shows with a fellow enthusiast.  Ok back to meeting up with Jack in Mansfield......details were all arranged.... we knew when we were going up and when Jack was planning on getting there.....  On our way there, we noticed signs for the show along the way...ok thats good....wait.....it says.... Toy and Card Show 10-3.....  wait toy?  and beckett said the show was from 9-5.....hmm...oh well.....  get there and there is a $2.50 admission.... hmm beckett said $2.... and then the show..... well the building was full....I am guessing at least 50 tables.....and well maybe 5 or 6 had cards....great well at least we are meeting up with Jack....  Ahh he's the Baseball Dad... lets see if we can recognize him..... no luck....  now I had Jacks number, so ok we give in I'll call and find him...... dang....  stuff had came up and Jack hadn't left let.....  really long story made less longer....  told Jack it probably wasnt worth the trip....as it blowed.....  good thing because by the time he would have gotten there most of the tables were folding up by 2:30 ish......   so no big meet up..... but too make a bad situation better there was 1 seller with dime and quarter boxes..... which took up over an hour of our time.....or like 80% of the time at the show....  now these cards are not from the dime and quarter box guy.....  as we were getting ready to leave... a guy who had  a pathetic table that we laughed at as we walked around...flagged us down...great deals guys I need to sell something.....this guy had maybe 40 cards in top loaders on the table....that was it...with ridiculous prices on them....well he was pricing to sell....guessing he needed to either pay rent or buy lunch...or just pay for his table.....  but basically he sold all of these for about $5 a card.....  the one I had liked was the Rendon and after checking ebay when I got home...yep it paid for them all.....   the bradshaw and stallworth are one I want to keep.... the others are up for trade if anyone is interested.....  though I am giving Jack first dibs on the Piersall relic as a consolation for not being able to make the show.....  I am guessing the Rendon is going to end up on ebay though....  

I got a few others from desperate guy which will be in a later post along with my favs from the dime and quarter box guy.    I do love the prices the dude had on these cards.... may be the reason he didnt make any sales.....  the only one even close to what its selling for is the Rendon.. and that pretty close to right on.   until part 2....thanks for reading all that nonsense.....hey I aint a professional writer.....
Let's make a deal.....
