Ballot Box Giveaway/Tradeaway Part I: Glossies/Quakers/Hockey

 Here is the first of seven (probably) posts where I offer up cards from A Cracked Bat's generous Ballot Box contest.

A few rules:
- I am only sending out cards via PWE
- US mailing addresses only
- Do make sure I have your current address if we haven't traded recently. (Hey, "Brett Alan", I still need your address from my Free Card Friday giveaway in August.)
- You can claim up to six cards for free (due to their thickness, Sportflics count as two cards) (six cards total, not six a day). A very few cards will be for trade only.
- You can claim up to fifteen cards by sending me one (or more!) card from my wantlists (same rules as last point)
- 15+ cards - less discuss a trade!

Speaking of trades, one long-time trading buddy claimed most of the cards from three of the sets. Two of them are posted today. There's still plenty of good cards left though.

1988 Topps Glossy Send-Ins. Most are claimed now, but still nine cards left including a few Hall of Famers. The names can be hard to read. They are: Ruben Sierra, Mike Scott, Cal Ripken, Jack Clark, Shane Rawley, Dave Winfield, Ozzie Smith, Jose Canseco, Paul Molitor.

1986 Quaker Chewy Granola. A few cards were claimed from this set but there is still plenty to go around. You should be able to read these names in the photos, especially if you click on the photo to open a larger version.

Finally, the one hockey set Julie included. None of these were claimed but this is not a full set. This is the 2019/20 SP Authentic Hockey set. The set checklist is on TCDB. What Julie sent was the base set, cards #1-100, minus the following numbers: 5, 8, 19, 20, 35, 51, 65, 70, 79, 82. In the photo below I picked out players I had heard of. Joe Thornton is a name I remember from a long time ago. Check out his long gray beard - that has to be one of the best beards in sports!
