Package #1: Over at Sports Cards Ate My Brain Scott had broken up a set of 2011 Topps Limited Factory Set stamped cards into individual teams. For a few Braves cards, Scott set me up with the singles from Twins team. Hopefully Nick Blackburn’s card comes home to roost someday, too.
Package #2: Derek from Tomahawk Chopping – Cardboard and More posted a photo variation card of Nishioka for trade, and after browsing his trade bait page, we exchanged a handful of mostly 2012 cards.
clockwise, from top left: 2011 Topps Chrome Xfractor #59 Joe Nathan; 2012 Topps photo variation #411 Tsuyoshi Nishioka; 2006 Upper Deck Future Stars Green #40 Torii Hunter [258/499]; 2012 Topps Gold #81 Liam Hendriks
Thanks for the swap, guys.
The Blackburn card is apparently somewhere in the ether. If someone else I sent a team set to got it please forward it to Rhubarb.
Hey, it happens. Interestingly enough, there are TWO Danny Valencia cards in the set, each with different numbers. Topps shenanigans.
