Blogger/TCDB/OBC roundup

Hadn't realized I hadn't done one of these since December. Some overdue thanks for all of these! 

Three 1962 Topps from Neal Thomas, OBC. Lee Thomas and Bob Cerv had just been traded for each other!

I love it when I can trade modern for vintage. I traded three modern cards to DSPokecards of TCDB, for these two '68 high numbers.

Two awesome additions to my 1953 set, from Steve Sankner, OBC. Always a thrill to get cards this old.

I love the Heritage flashbacks cards and any Don Mattingly card. These came from homerjg007, TCDB.

Great mixture of vintage needs from Randy Welk, OBC.

Two '58 Red Sox and some '82 Fleer stamps with great photographer, courtesy of Ymmat, TCDB.

Time travel trade with Diamond Jesters. A vintage card, a Topps sticker, and some big football names from the 80's.

I got four envelopes from Johnny's Trading Spot, in batches of two. The first two were all modern cards of vintage Yankees.

The second two were lots of shiny Yankee cards. All of the '24 design cards are from the 582 Montgomery set, with shiny foil. The Panini Chronicles Gary Sanchez card is two different color variations. I didn't even realize the cards were serial numbered until later.

Finally, I picked out some fun cards from the Angels in Order giveaway. Lots of great cards here but my favorite is the "Picture Perfect" insert, which I had never seen before. For some reason the photo under the Reds player is of Hilltop Park, the uptown Manhattan home of the New York Highlanders (later Yankees) before Yankee Stadium. That part of Manhattan is quite hilly, hence the park and team name. You can see the Fort Washington Armory behind the left field wall. That building is still there today. (The site of Hilltop Park is now Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital.)
