The Great Grand Cards Trade Away: Day 5

And the winner is...

The winner of the Day 4 package of a couple miscellaneous autographs is Dayf, who offered a 1995 Old Judge Dave Mysel autograph. Why? Here's why. That card comes from an era when autographs still meant something. 1995. A time when a card numbered to 5750 copies (!) was something to be impressed by. Sure, the Andrew Miller card might have been nice, but odds are it was a sticker autograph. And the Old Judge cards have a charm that no 2003 Bowman can top. As for Milt Cuyler...well, I LOVE Milt Cuyler, but I'm a weird OCD person with this sort of stuff and I don't have any in person autographs on cards and if I start now I'm afraid I'll never stop.

So, Dayf it is.

Which brings us to Day 5.

Up for Grabs A Large Package of Topps cards of your favorite team.

This is just like the non-topps giveaway from Day 2 except this time it is Topps cards. 95% of my collection falls into these years: 1982, 1986-1994, 2000, 2006-2010. Included in this giveaway will be 2009 Topps "Throwback" cards, 2009 Topps "Black" Cards (from Walmart), rookies, inserts, commemorative patches, parallels, Topps Opening Day and, of course, base cards from all the years.

I am willing to make a package for each team. They will be comparably sized to the non-topps packages.

Opening Bid A comment. If you want some of these they are yours. If there is competition for certain teams, you may feel free to start bidding with cards.

This will end TOMORROW at 5:30 pm, so get your comments in!
