TTM Success - Franklin Stubbs

Wow it's been a long time since I've had a TTM success.  But it's also been awhile since I sent any out.  I had seen some recent success with Franklin Stubbs.  And the beauty is I also got to fill a hole in my TTM project filling in the 1993 Topps and Donruss spots.

What a post??!!??

Well as July comes to a close and I realize I haven't posted once this month I figured I'd try to get something out.  I've been a busy beaver with work and it won't get any better till the end of August.  Mix in with that that my home time is occupied spending time with the wife and little guy.

While I was gone Series 2 and Ginter has come out and some of the early football releases from Panini. I've opened a few packs and do plan to put the sets together.

 Anyways I found time to pop into Don's Sportcards and he's been helping to sell off a guys collection.  Don told me he literally has a storage unit packed with cards.  Sadly most of those cards are early to mid 90's stuff, but he does have a few gems hidden here or there.  I've been picking up cheap old hobby boxes of non-sports cards stuff.  I'll feature those sometime later, but this trip I found something baseball related to take home.

A sealed 1993 Toys R Us Baseball set.

 Not only do you get 100 cards, but the bonus set of Stadium Club Master Photos too.

 Very interesting packaging.
The set comes seated in a little bitty store.

The main reason I picked up this set was it was cheap and it also featured one of my favorite players and new HOF inductee and a couple cards of his I don't own yet.

 Plus I'll get the Brewers team set from the box too.  You can see the full checklist here.

 I also got a Frank Thomas Master Photo, but since I don't have a good way to store these yet, I could bring myself to open the pack, but the the pictures are the same from their base cards.

Neat stuff. Anyone know what these went for new back in 1993?

Anyway, I'm heading back to work tomorrow, so we can probably expect the same blogging output for the next month or so.

cb out.
