My kids each got a couple of the Harry Potter chocolate frogs that come with a card inside. My son was disappointed that he got two of the same card. I couldn't easily find any Harry Potter cards to trade on TCDB. Any chance any readers have any extra Harry Potter cards? Would want just one to keep the delicate balance between kids. This one is available for trade:
It's been well over a month since my last roundup post. Here's what's come in since then . . .An '80 Burger King and a '70 scratchoff. Steve Sankner, OBC.
Seven '62 stamps, including two HOFers. Jim Craig, OBC.
Two great trades with threegreatgirls, TCDB, netted me some vintage plus some '86 Donruss oddballs.There were some occasional eBay pickups over the past month. A big name from the '71 OPC set!I kind of goofed here, overpaid a bit for these because I thought I needed Robin Roberts. Most of these are available for trade.A rough '71 lot with some high numbers. I only needed the top four, the rest are available.'64 Hank Aaron from eBay! Great card for a good price.Three beautiful 1962 high numbers. Bob D'Angelo, OBC.
Paul Stenshoel, OBC, sends a Philley whose sometimes a Phillie, but not here.Some more stars from the early days of O-Pee-Chee. A four card lot with a duplicate '70 Steve Carlton, available for trade. eBay.
This was last month's Time Travel Trade with Diamond Jesters!The Number 5 Type Collection blog, by OBC's Spike Glidden, was giving away some team sets. Nobody wanted the Rangers and there were some interesting magazine cards in there. These were the cards I needed from those cards. Looks like he's still got Astros and White Sox lots available.Jonathan Jeans, OBC, sends the square root of '64.Ernie Banks took a licking but kept on ticking! ebay.Dan Williams of OBC sent a nice mix of Topps from different years.This oddball with no explanation was under $0.25 on eBay. Looked it up, it appears to have been part of a photoset that would be given away at Three Rivers Stadium on the special days where you could go on the field, take a photo with the player and get an autograph. This counts as a card to me!TJ Valacak sent a star-filled oddball bunch. He's OBC and TCDB (where he goes by tjv815).Yankee98, TCDB, sent two '58s, a '62 high number, and the Don Mattingly card that completes my 1987 Fleer Baseball's Best set.Probably the hardest to get League Leaders card of the era, even harder than any with Mantle. The pen marks kept it in my price range.Finally, a big vintage trade from DLeister of TCDB. While not as old as some of these others, it feels really good knocking off the last few semi-highs, and a few highs, from 1968, 1970 . . . 1971 and 1972! Pretty much just high numbers remaining from 1970-1972 after this trade.
