The Grady Boxes: Box 2

A few times a year, blog reader and good friend Grady M (@gradyfishinsea), sends me a box full of goodies. He has been doing this for many years since we met on my Facebook page.

These boxes usually consist of my four New York teams, some player collections and so much shiny that I have no other choice but to smile.

I never know what is arriving and what surprises hide within until it arrives. But I do know that it will be fun.

So, when Grady sent me a Christmas box round of cards, I had a hard time waiting until Christmas to open it, but I did.

Inside of the big box it came in, were multiple empty blaster boxes full of treasure.

I thought to myself, how does one post so many cards on a blog without spamming it completely. After much thought, I sat down and decided I would show off some, yes some, of my favorites from each blaster box.

Let's take a peek of what was inside of this 2022 Topps Chrome blaster.


We kick it off with a new Junior.
My lack of buying in 2023 left a lot of empty spots in my collection, this Griffey fills in one.

Same goes for this Dexter Lawrence, Mosaic parallels are underrated.

Thunder and Lightning. Zenith has some pretty nice inserts, we don't have products that focus on inserts anymore.

This is a shiny parallel, was hard to capture it.


I didn't open any Big League, but it looks like it was a cool product. These Judges may be my favorite ones now.

Well, that does it for Box #2. There are more to come from this series and some boxes I show off more cards than this.
