My latest Burbank Sportcards mail day was full of 90's shiny goodness.
This is only one part of the mail day, tomorrow will be the remaining. I had my eyes on two sets that brought me back to 1996 when I was at the ripe age of 13. Back when I was deeply into collecting football and basketball cards.
I just kick myself every day for not holding onto more of my basketball.
That's where my orders from Burbanks comes into play. I tackle my nostalgia needs that way.
Today, I grabbed a few cheap 1996-1997 Topps Seasons Best inserts which fell 1:8 packs and feature players who have excelled in the five key statistical categories of the game:
- Points - En Fuego
- Rebounds - Board Members
- Steals - Sticky Fingers
- Assists - Dish Men
- Blocks - Swat Team
I took a dive into a few of these that they offered on their Beckett Marketplace,
Who doesn't remember ripping packs of this and seeing a shiny card floating in the middle of the pack. It brought that joy as you slowly went through each card anticipating that sweet moment.
And even though I never landed a MJ, I did find a few of these guys in packs.
The prismatic refractor look on these is spectacular. Puts all inserts today to shame.
I hope to add a few more of these down the road and as always, I am up for trades for the ones I don't have. HIT ME UP!
