World's Saltiest Sailor---now what?




This is an awesome unannounced subset to this years Ginter. I am conflicted on what to do---keep it and consider it a start on the set or sell and wait a while until the prices come down and look to reacquire it. Any thoughts? I mean "Calico Jack" does sound like one cool ass sailor, so there is that.

Almost finished!

Well its down to waiting for arrival. I just won the last card i needed to finish the ENTIRE 2008 allen &ginter regular back mini set 1-400. Thats right, upon arrival I will have finished the extended mini set! I guess that means on to the next project which is the 2009 A&G back mini and ext set, I only need 2 more a&gs and about 20 of the exts.
As for the 2010 minis, I have my want lists added to the post below. I have plenty of cards to trade and I am looking to deal. Thanks for your consideration.

Mini hits and some facial hair.......and updated lists




I know it has already been touched upon by others, but.....why in the heck is Eric Byrnes in this years Ginter? Were there really no better choices? Oh well all these minis are available for trade, the 2 black borders are SPs, I have decided I am not even going to pretend to chase the black bordered minis this year. I know the NNOs are limited to 50 but w/o them being numbered /50 I guess I just dont care, I liked the 09s havent liked the other years.

How can I pass up a cabinet card that features Chester A. Arthur and his awesome facial hair? I can't! If it weren't for me being a big US History buff, I am sure the I would only know of Chester A. Arthur because of his famous middle school--- well the one named after him anyways. No links i am too damn lazy for that. Most of you should know the reference!

I have more minis added to the to trade list....here they are...still looking to put the final touches on a couple of trades....

My Ginter relics..... and updated trade list




I would say that all of these are available at the right price.....though the extra Tulo and Prince need to find a new home! I like that i got a pile of bat relics instead of the pile of jersey relics i have from previous years. Oh and sorry about the 3 cards that are in sideways...it was the only way to get all 10 cards onto the scanner. I kinda like the fire like frames on the relics this year, they do stand out. I suppose i am looking for Blue Jay relics and Tom Knapp..... I really want Tom Knapp stuff, so if you have any goofy Tom Knapp items or even extra base cards....I will be glad to give them a new home.

I will be adding more to these want lists/ to trade lists.
