TTC Update

I found my secret stash of cards I sort of like last night and was able to fill a few holes in the Topps Type Collection.

Here's my current checklist.  I'm headed to a card shop on Friday so I should be able to fill a few of the more recent years with dime box goodies.  Wait.  They don't have a dime box.  I'll pull them and make an offer.  It will probably be in the order of five for a buck.

** NOTE: This checklist is outdated.  Please see the newer one at the Friday entry.

Looking at this, I'd probably like to cover as many teams as possible, not just loading up on any one team.  I'd also like to vary my player selection, not having a run of Hershisers.  That's what my player collection is for.

This start of this process has made me realize that my cards are in horrible disarray and that I have too many of them.  I'll guess I'll be making a trade-bait page soon.
