Giants Cardboard:2021 Donruss Clearly Kadarius Toney

Some products you just never get a chance to see in person unless you pick up singles from it.

Especially with the price of boxes now.

I have opened up some Donruss Clearly in the past for reviews, but the last few years have missed out.

So, I had to make sure I grabbed at least one card from it this year right?

And I did.

 

The product is simple. It takes the basic Donruss design and acetates it. It's a pretty cool look in the end.

 

And I was glad to pick this one up for under $3. 

I just feel bad for the guy who probably paid close to $500 for the box and having to sell a card this cheap to move it.

Thoughts on today's newest card welcomed in comments.

Have a blessed Sunday!

Giants Cardboard:Adding Some Autographs

I mentioned a couple of day ago my order with Burbank Sportcards came with some Giants not named Eli and today was the day I planned to show those off.

First we start with my very first Shiancoe autograph. He didn't do much with the Giants as he was Jeremy Shockey's back up but shined more with the Vikings later on.

Only my second Tiki Barber autograph in a Giants uniform comes Illusions. This does mark my first Tiki autograph jersey card though. I think the design and layout on this card is well done.

Tiki was a stud running back for the Gmen, just wished he could had won a Super Bowl.

90's autograph and a Giants player, sign me up. Lewis was a first round draft pick of the Giants in 1994 but I don't think he ever lived up to expectations after a successful college career.

My final autograph snag was this Dave Brown from Inscriptions. Brown doesn't have many autographs out there, I mean why would he looking back on his career, but he was a Giant and I grew up watching him play so I needed one of him. I already had this card but my autograph wasn't as strong as this one as mine had started to fade some. I hope to protect this one better but these acetate autographs can be scary over time.

My next mail day from Burbank Sportscards Beckett Marketplace  will most likely be more Giants pickups because I save 10% by using code 15Burbank at checkout and who doesn't like to save money? I suggest you try it as well.

Giants Cardboard: Jones Sent My Way

I may or may not have mentioned it on here but I was dealing with a lot of pain from Kidney Stone surgery and two rounds of it.

I have had some well wishes and some surprise mail days to help keep my head on straight in the meantime. 

One of these mail days came from @CShop14f who passed along some Daniel Jones to me.

Leaf Draft All-American

Absolute Introductions rookie insert

And Absolute base rookie.

Thanks for the note, which I will mention this now that I have kept every note I have ever been given in my almost 9 years of blogging, and for the Jones cards. They helped keep my mind occupied while I was healing.

How about you guys? Do you hold onto notes that other collectors have sent to you?

Giants Cardboard:Mosaic Adds!

I didn't think I would be one that fell in love with....Mosaic, but I did.

Recently I was scouring Burbank Sportscards Beckett Marketplace (also saved 10% by using code 15Burbank which you should try as well), I found they had a bunch of NY Giants Mosaic versions for sale and found the cheapest ones to grab. 

My cart looked very shiny by the time I was done.

Daniel Jones base parallels (I have since dropped the silver and damaged the corner badly. I had to toss it in the junk card pile)

Eli Stare Masters insert. Everyone always enjoys the "Eli Face"and now they can see it more up close.

Eli Adds were on fire. Three base card parallels including a pink

3 Old School inserts with 2 parallels

3 touchdown Masters with 2 parallels (which I think the card looks great even without the parallels)

And here is where I currently stand with my parallels for base for Daniel Jones,

Here are my Eli's,

Funny how both came out with 6. That was unintentional.

Fun pickups for my collection. I don't plan on chasing any rainbows with these with the amount of parallels they have and so many others chasing them as well. I am happy with what I got however.

Let's go Giants and hoping for a win against Baltimore today. It won't be easy for sure.

(PS:if this game changes for any reason or any players are not playing, keep in mind this post was typed up on December 1st as I was trying to get a little bit ahead on here with some drafts)

Giants Cardboard: RAK N Trade

 

Could I have saved this post for Giants Cardboard tomorrow, yes, but with myself falling behind on posts with Giants cards, I can't keep pushing these off any longer. I have to get these posted more frequently than once a week.

So to put a stop on the next question about Giants Cardboard that I am sure you are dying to know, yes there will still be another Giants Cardboard tomorrow.

Today's cardboard awesomeness came from a small PWE trade I pulled off along with a RAK I got from someone.

First up, my trade with @nekbone860 which included the Saquon relic above.

Daneil Jones Will To Win Mosaic insert

and Pink Parallel from Mosaic. Which will we be seeing much more on Mosaic tomorrow.

Thanks for the trade @nekbone860!

Up next, a RAK from my weekly RAK thread I host on Twitter. This one came from @Jay_D_Schmidt who said he had some Giants to send me.

Darius Slayton green parallel from 2020 Absolute. My first Absolute card from it.

woo doggy, What a beaut!

Daniel Jones base card from Mosaic. I believe it's my first from it.

Thanks to Jay for the mail day!

Tomorrow will be a Mosaic day for my latest Giants Cardboard so come back and enjoy!
