the wife and I do a lot of rummaging in second hand shops, flea markets and the likes both for just our own collecting habits and deals but I also flip a fair amount of stuff we find good deals on to make a lil money to go back into the cash we spend and boost our ability to buy more stuff...or at least sell the excess and with a little elbow grease get a lot of our stuff "free" after the fact.
well normally when we run across sports cards at a thrift store its nothing but 1990-1991 junk, or late 80s junk. usually battered and beaten sometimes you run into that rare "collectors" investment stash of 250 copies of a cliff floyd rookie or something...but usually worthless... not a remarkable find or anything on this but for $7.99 I had to pick it up.
binder filled with mint (and I mean really nice) cards, half of which were 1998 zenith 5x7 cards the other half were 1982 donruss diamond kings and then an oddball assortment of cards.
anyway if anyone is interested in any of these for cheap or for a "I don't care much just let me know if you have any maddux cards we might want" I'm really just looking to save them from the thrift store, get them to people who might want them and maybe make some of the $8 back
anyway here they are:
1998 zenith 5x7s:
2x roger clemens Z45
1x alex rodriguez Z14
1x mike piazza Z21
1x tony gwynn Z22
1x andruw jones Z9
1x greg maddux Z3 (got the whole book for this really)
6x ken griffey sample Z40
2x vladimar guerrero Z41
1x nomar Z1 (card is red? this any different than the standard 5x7s?)
2x travis lee Z67
1x javy lopez Z62
1x jaret wright - impulse Z69
1x frank thomas Z4
1x frank thomas Z-team #1
1995 Emotion Ripken #8 Cal Ripken# {Shortstop HR Record}
3 1995 UD commerative michael jordan NNO jumbo cards (not sure which ones they are can't figure it out)
24x 1982 donruss diamond kings nolan ryan
