December End-of-Month Trade Mail

When I recently started blogging again, I decided to try to keep it simple. I knew that creating a post of every trade that came in, as well as special interest posts, would overwhelm me and I'd quickly burn out again. So I decided that I would just post about any completed set that was the result of trade mail. I would for sure try to at least send an email notifying the trader that the PWE arrived and that I was thankful for it.

That worked for about a month; however, I've always liked to give public credit where credit was due, so now I've decided to create an end-of-month trade mail recap, where I can show all the great cards you have sent in one big post. More manageable for me that way.

I'm starting this monthly post with cards I've recieved since December 27, so I appologise to those of you who have already sent cards, but didn't get a shout-out post for it. Those cards have already been logged and bindered. I know you guys are all saying "Shut up Tom, it's not a big deal," you're all great that way, and I appreciate that.

TRADE MAIL RECEIVED

That sweet 1997 Pinnacle Platinum Red is numbered 1318/3999. Is there a significance to 3999? Why not an even 4000 Platinum Reds? The 2004 Topps Traded & Rookies checklists are interesting. These are the first two I have for this checklist set (10 in all) Does anyone know if these fit together like a poster? The only other non-Angels team sets I'm collecting are the 1954 Bowman and 1960 Topps Dodgers. Always thankful to receive one for those sets. Night Owl send another one earlier in the month.

This fit some nice holes since I'm severly lacking in Angels cards the last several years. Speaking of the Angels, they had better at least make the playoffs this season with both Trout and Ohtani healthy. Right.

Completed Angels Team Set: 1981 Topps Stickers



Along with a couple Patriots cards, and another Angels card, A Penny Sleeve sent the last six stickers I needed to complete this team set.

Much appreciated!

Have A Solar-Powered Christmas

Fortunately I'm one of the recipients of Gavin's Solar-Powered, Bleached '91 Fleer Christmas Cards. Gavin selected the Jim Abbott card from the team set, glad he did as Abbott would have been my favorite Angel in that set.

Before you curse him for desecrating a baseball card, he didn't. The snow, snowman, and holiday greetings are on a clear piece of acetate overlaying the card.

Here's what the modified card looks like. I love it in white, appropriate for Christmas and a nice change from the blaring yellow.

Merry Christmas!

Completed Team Set: 1992 All World Patriots

Also included in a recent trade with The Collective Mind was this complete 9-card All World team set. I say complete because I didn't have one card. I don't even know what these are, I just knew that I didn't have this team set.


Interesting that they didn't include the quarterback in the set...would have been Hugh Millen or Tom Hodson.
Also interesting that some of the flags are flying backwards.

Completed Team Set: 1982 Topps Patriots

I received the last two cards I needed to complete this Patriots team set. The cards were received as part of a trade with The Collective Mind recently, as were several other cards that completed a few more team sets. Be on the lookout for those posts.



On Card Autographs:Rick Sanford, Raymond Clayborn, Tony Collins, Vagas Ferguson.

Much thanks!

2018 Topps Trade Bait

I have most of this set available for trade (except RCs, Rookie Cup, Future Stars and Angels).

State your needs (card numbers) in the comments or mail a wantlist to tessierthomas at yahoo dot com. Please do not say "all the...", It's easier to pull by number. I'll be mailing in PWEs, so I might have to limit the number of PWEs per person to two (two 12-card PWEs).

Please check my Wantlist Tabs above, or What I Collect on the right sidebar. I hope we can trade!

The "I Miss Getting Mail, Please Trade With Me" Post

Hi everyone! Yes, I miss getting mail, I admit it, and I miss trading too! It's been a while. Select up to 9 cards from those below, noting the page and position # in the comments. And yes I would like something in return...mail! (If you can. If not, no worries, pick away). Please send something off my want lists, or any Angels from the past few years (I haven't added hardly anything in a long while).

Please legibly write your return address on the envelope you send, or email your mailing address to tessierthomas at yahoo dot com.

I've been reading your blogs regularly, and commenting once in a while, but I still have blog burnout, except for the past couple of giveaways I've done.

I hope you find something you like, and thanks!
