#TheBloggerNational2024

Hey!

If you haven't heard, for those of you at home and not going to The National, you can join in on the fun from home!

Just join #TheBloggerNational2024.

What is the Blogger National? Well, it's a blog-bat-around where you just take one post (or multiple if you so choose) in the next few days and dedicate it to showing off your coolest cards or your most favorite cards or a recent mail day you hadn't posted yet using the blog post title, The Blogger National 2024.

I want you to try to find the cards that are show worthy to you. You know, the dazzling cards that would attract all of the people over to your table (blog).

I know my latest mail day from long time blog reader Grady M would draw a crowd!

Last week I received a box of packed full of blaster boxes that are packed full of cards. If I had a real title for this post it would have been called packed full.

There are 11 blasters in all containing shiny, inserts, parallels and PC cards across multiple sports. It's always a fun dig in.

I will be exploring these boxes while everyone is experiencing The National. This is my National.

Thanks Grady for a good time!

As for the rest of you, blog post your own #BloggerNational2024 using the hashtag on social media or on your blog.

And if you actually made it to The National, have fun. I am jealous. 

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Certified Black 1/1

Today is a big day! I am showing off my final piece to my 2023 Certified autograph rainbow, the black parallel.

Thanks to my longtime friend Shane from Cheap Wax Wednesday, I was able to add this bad boy to the PC.

I am glad to put one to rest of the 2023 Rodney Hampton blowouts that Panini put out this year. I am still working on the Spectra and the Absolute rainbows. Absolute is only two away while Spectra is four away. Hopefully someday I can finish both up.

That's it for this week's Rodney's Cardboard!

Rodney's Cardboard:1996 Fleer Ultra Sensations Rainbow Parallel

I have finally completed another 90's Rodney rainbow.

I have never, ever seen one of these pop up before so when I did not only was I shocked, but I was also very excited.

With being only one, yes one percent of the total print run of Ultra Sensations it makes it very tough to find the Rainbow Parallel for 1996 Ultra Sensations.

I am not sure what the odds are on these but they weren't easy.

There isn't much to these parallels compared to the others in the set. Just a few specs of color mixed in with the golden border.

 

Back of the card is the same as the others in the run. Not even numbered.

Speaking of rainbows, there is another one coming up next Sunday. So come back and check that one out!

Some Giant Adds!

As long as you didn't read my blog post title too fast, you would see that I have some Giant adds recently and not anything related to the Kardashians title you may have seen.

All of today's cards came via trade.

Hall Of Famer Michael Strahan jersey card came via a trade with Shane from Cheap Wax Wednesday fame.

Same with this Ottis Anderson autograph. I should see how many of these I have now.

 

I stared at this Phil Simms autograph for weeks that someone had for trade on Twitter. I wanted to bite, but didn't think I could pull it off...but obviously I did. This is only my second autograph of Simms in my collection.

 

Along with the Simms tagged this Darius Slayton Optic Stars parallel. Really cool looking card.

I was pretty happy about adding these thicc cards. Yes, that may have been a joke bounced off from my opening line for today's post.

Thoughts on my cards welcomed in comments!

Eli's Countdown 1055:2019 National Treasures Treasured Moments

 

The Eli's roll on!

The latest addition has been one I have wanted for five years.

But, prices were too steep and out of my reach.

However, one finally popped up cheap enough and I grabbed it.

My most wanted Eli's are the ones that include either Super Bowl victory because who knows if I will ever see any more Super Bowl wins in my lifetime.

I know you feel me there Giants fans.

Eli's Countdown:2024 Leaf Metal Purple Wave /7

Eli is counting closer to 1100, but we aren't there yet.

Today is the latest addition to my Leaf Metal chase.

I had considered a rainbow chase on these, but there are way too many.

This one is a purple wave.

 

It is numbered to 7. This one I landed cheap even though it's an "eBay 1/1".

There are more Eli to come. I really need to update my TCDB as well with the new ones.

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Spectra Neon Marble Autograph /4

Rodney's Cardboard is new! I am running out of new Rodney's to show off, but for now, bask in the ambience of them.

I expected more out of these Spectra Rodney's especially the lower numbered ones but so far, they are simply meh. I would expect more out of one numbered to 4.

 

Here is the card back. It's numbered 3/4. This is the only one of these I have seen on the market so it's important to grab this stuff when you can.

There is still more of these I need to chase, the /8 just sold so I missed that one. The 1/1 already disappeared on me as well. The /10 is listed but I can't afford it right now. I guess for now I will be happy with what I have.

Hope everyone has a great Sunday. God Bless!
