Rodney's Cardboard:1995 Topps Mystery Refractor With Rare Peel

Happy Sunday to you all!

Who wants to check out the latest Rodney Hampton card addition to my super PC?

You do!! Well, that's good because here it is!

Today's card is a bit of a rare one. You don't find these too often if not at all.

In 1995, Topps included Mystery Finest and Mystery Finest Refractors in their flagship product. With these being a Mystery card, you didn't normally get to see the card or player until you peel off the black covering.

However, my latest Rodney find, it doesn't have the usual black peeling you would find on those cards. Instead, it has the usual Finest Do Not Peel covering. It's a rare unique card and I have no intention of peeling it off. 

 

The back of the card is the same along with the front image and refractor. It's just got the Do Not Peel instead of the black covering which makes this one a one of a kind.

This may be one of the most unique and nicest looking oddballs in my Rodney collection and I am not sure if there will ever be another oddball that will top it.

This card arrived to me at Christmas time thanks to my friend Wes, formally of Area40 blog who found it.

Let me know your thoughts on the card in comments and if you have ever seen one before.

Hope you have had a great day!

Rodney's Cardboard: 2023 Certified Green Autograph /5

As I post these Rodney's from 2023 Certified, it got me to thinking that maybe I should break them up some.

So, next week I will begin posting some other Rodney's on and off to mix in with these as I have picked up and added so many new Rodney's recently. And Supposedly I see he may be in 2023 Absolute  football. I will have to confirm this and figure out how he is incorporated into it.

For now, let's check out another new 2023 Certified autograph.

This one is the green parallel /5 and is the lowest numbered one I own. Still waiting on that 1/1 to pop up.

  

Card back looks the same as the rest.

Here is an overall look at the chase in 2023 Certified for Rodney,
Base /199, Bronze /99, Pink /75, Orange /50, Red /35, Blue /30, Teal /25, Gold /15, Purple /10, Green /5, and Black 1/1.

If you happen to see the 1/1 and I don't, please let me know! Send an email even to sportcardcollectors@hotmail.com or comment below!

Rodney's Cardboard:2023 Certified Red Autograph /35

Boy, do I miss Giants football. It's going to be a long wait, but at least Free Agency is coming up along with the draft.

I guess I always have new Rodney's to keep me happy and guess what, one is right here today and it's a new add to my latest run of the 2023 Certified football.

 

Today's card is the red parallel that is numbered to 35.

 

Not much to show on the back just like the last card.

Here is an overall look at the chase in 2023 Certified for Rodney,

There will be more updates to come from this chase. I can say though, the 1/1 has not popped up yet and I keep waiting for it to.  If you see it and I don't, please let me know! Send an email even to sportcardcollectors@hotmail.com.
