Bloggers old and new

Highlighting a couple of recent incomings from bloggers . . . 

Night Owl has got to be one of the longest running blogs out there. We've exchanged cards many times over the years. This time, in response for sending him some unloved '89 Score junkwax, he more than generously gave some vintage classics.

A lot of World Series history in these cards. That 1908 card is a bit snarky - "Ty Cobb's Only Good Series". 

Lots of Yankee wins here, many at the expense of the Dodgers. I'm sure Night Owl couldn't wait to get rid of these.
A couple of even older Fleer cards, highlighting a couple of long-forgotten baseball lifers.
On the other end of the spectrum, Sir Nailhead is one of the newest bloggers out there. He's doing a poor-condition frankenset which is right up my alley! I'm sure this is the first of many trades as I dig into my many poor conditioned cards. He's also on TCDB so we worked out the trade over there, with me getting a nice mixture in return.

Some late 80s early 90s sets with cards I still needed. I really like the Denny's cards, especially the year they did the city skylines. 

Nailhead is a big Cubs fan, so he had a lot of extra Ernie Banks. And that Walker Cooper is an interesting early 80s oddball, with a vintage car in the background.
Ironically from a guy with a poor-condition frankenset, he sent me some of the best-conditioned '58-'60 cards I've encountered.
