Amazingly, however, almost all of the other cards were not junk wax. For example, there were a ton of 2000 Fleer Tradition and Stadium Club cards.
Speaking of set collecting, my 1980 Topps wantlist got whittled down to five, with probably the most valuable of the cards I needed, Nolan Ryan! Now I just need Johnny Bench, George Brett, Tom Seaver, Reggie Jackson, and the Red Sox team card.
There was a bunch of 1995 Collectors Choice. I have the full base set, so all of those, including the Derek Jeter rookie card, are up for trade.
There were also a bunch of Silver Signatures, including the Jeter!
There were several small complete sets, including 1993 Upper Deck BAT/Foundation of Baseball, 1997 Cracker Jack minis (with a bunch of extras to trade), and series one and two of 1993 Duracell. I already had series one, so this one is up for trade.
There were some cool oddballs as well, the most interesting being some reproductions of Ken Griffey Jr.'s boyhood photos! Check out Dad's afro!
Judging by the address they were published out of someone's apartment.
That's some impressive muscles for such a little kid.
The coolest thing in the trade, however, were these eleven cards.
These were individually autographed cards produced by Canadian Club Classic Whisky. Whoever collected these cards must have been a big drinker! Apparently they did a promotion in the mid-90s with a few Hall-of-Famers autographing cards.
I'm keeping one, so the other ten are up for trade. It looks like they generally go for about $15, so I would want to do a trade of similar value. I don't want to trade for other autographs, just cards, so take a look at my wantlists if you are interested, but let me know what else you might have for trade as I have a ton of other wants not listed.
