The last cards I got for 2025 arrived about a week before Christmas. They were eBay purchases. Looking back at 2025, I think I had a really good collecting year. I grew my two major PCs of Darryl Strawberry and John Kruk, and developed a much bigger Ryne Sandberg collection, adding well more than 200 cards. I also grew my Ralph Kiner collection and Andrew McCutchen collection---still a couple shy of 100 unique cards for him. I'll reach that milestone in 2026 I imagine.
First up is the 2025 Topps Update 35th Anniversary thingy for Darryl Strawberry!
Next up... a vintage card... Featuring four real Hall of Fame players:
Nice! I got this via an eBay live auction and I generally have mixed feelings about eBay live. I put in a bid I was comfortable with fully expecting to be outbid. But, lo and behold, I wasn't. But, four Hall of Famers on a card? I'll take it.
And wouldn't you know it, after I drafted this post, a few other cards came in unexpectedly but I do not feel like either revising this and haven't yet scanned said cards... Well, this gives you something to look forward to...
Thanks for stopping by!




Oh yes that '64 HR Leaders card is fantastic and far better than any of the final 2025 cards I received.
