$3 box time

Got another $3 box today. Like usual there were about 1,500 or so cards in the box. About 40-50% was baseball, and of those there were probably 100-150 cards I needed. The cards are piling up but if you figure $.02 a card for ones I need, not even including cards I can use for trades, and they are still good deals.

This box was a bit "meh" in terms of interesting cards, but here are a few highlights.

There were a few cards that said "1st Bowman Chrome Card". It would be funny if it said "My 1st Bowman Chrome Card" - would sound like a toy for a small child.
 A nice shiny Walt Weiss from the 1995 Topps Embossed set. One interesting thing about these boxes is that I am getting cards from unusual sets like this that will make my trade piles more interesting (and break the monotony from all those 2007 Toppses).
 Cool to get a card numbered to /25 in one of these boxes. Chris Seddon won two games in the major leagues and now pitches in Taiwan.
 As usual, there was some oddball set I had never seen before. This UD Ionix has a great design - for a football card.
