While this blog comments on hobby news here and there, it’s usually in a editorial/commentary fashion rather than a straight-up news format.

I have a tendency to start features and then ignore them for months upon months. It amazes me that bloggers such as Night Owl can not only start such ambitious tasks as the 50 greatest card backs of all time, but also maintain and complete them. This series started in early November. It’s now basically [...] I haven’t had the opportunity to make it back to my hometown for quite some time now. I still don’t know what Thanksgiving will bring, but that will most likely be my first shot at it in three months or so. Not great considering it’s only 90 minutes away or so.

Everyone’s favorite eBay wholsaler Kruk Cards sells random lots of these from time to time (aka: like three a week) so I grabbed one.

1958 Mailday
Who are these men? Are they the latest bach of Million Card Giveaway redemptions? No! They’re a lot of 16 1958 commons I kind of accidentally won on eBay for an average price of under $.50. Beat that Topps!
I won these kind of accidentally, really. I was just poking around looking at [...]
