Project Pedro Trade Recap Part 15:Plated

October has officially been named, Cards I Got From Project Pedro Blog Month.

Okay, I have many PC's. Some you see as obvious ones like NY Giants. Some, not so much as I don't speak of them often. Well, that's because they are 1/1's.

I collect Printing Plates and have for some time. I have roughly 20 or so (through trades and pulls) making it a small PC but a fun side one. I don't feel they make the same impact or have the same value they used to in the hobby, but I still like them. It's where every card begins.

Project Pedro had four to offer and I took all of them. Today I am showcasing just two as the other two are autographed versions which will come up soon.

My first plate is a good addition of former Panthers and current Packers DE/OLB Julius Peppers. I think this one may be the most impressive looking one I have since it's framed. I hadn't seen one like this before.

 

My second is of former Vikings and many other teams QB Christian Ponder. Not the best player, but a plate is a plate.

 

 

Still more to come on this trade including a biggie at the end.

 

For today, let me know your thoughts on Printing Plates and whether you collect them or not in comments.

The Card Bin: What Did I Find This Time?

I really enjoyed doing this post over at The Card Bin blog and I wasn't just going to leave you all hanging with it. So without further ado, another post from The Card Bin, which is what I call this this tote right here:

 

I think most of us collectors have that one place we store all of our extra cards that are not PC related. This is where I stick mine. I also use this as a once-in-awhile dig through to bring back memories or for a just for fun experience. I will start posting cards from this bin to show you what's hiding in there. I honestly have no idea what is in there, I only know its autographs and memorabilia cards from the past 14 years. So this should be fun for both you and I!

Onto today's find:
