My new addiction... Topps Triple Threads Baseball....

DrJ

Just picked up a couple of this year's triple threads baseball of all time Philadelphia greats...


Schmidt/Ashburn/Howard Triple and Jimmie "The Beast" Foxx




Topps really has done a nice job this year with the design and the unique was the pieces are displayed

Pretty cool cards.

Thanks man. I paid a little more than I wanted for both, but Schmidt and Ashburn are two of my all time favorites and Foxx is a true legend of the game.

I sort of sided against the threads cards because I was on that "we shouldn't destroy memorabilia" kick. But I'm back to likeing these cards again because I'm a card collector. I'd rather have a card with a piece of an item on it than to actually have the item.

Nice cards, don't go and od on them now.

Well Jimmie Foxx and Ashburn have passed on.

Just realized how dirty my scanner is.

I was originally against memorbilia cards for the same reason, but in the end of the day I probably would never spend the money (and porbably couldn't afford anyway) a Jimmie Foxx or Ashburn GU jersey. These cards give us the opportunity to own a piece of history normally outside the reach of the normal collector.

Justine, how many packs did you have to molest to find those cards?

Nevermind, you'll just lie about it.

would look a little better if the Howard was red

Trentesa, your every post makes my sig line even more meaningful. Have you added anything useful to the boards, even once?

The Howard actually came from his AS game appearance in either 06/07. Topps was also using yellow AS jerseys for a time as well. I got it mainly for the Ashburn who does not show up on a ton of GU cards.

Yes I cetainly have, allow me to give an example...

DrJ(Justine) is a known pack molesting liar who would steal from a little girl. He's a pitiful rat and a slanderous baby.

And that's the truth folks.







For everyones information. Everything I've said about DrJ is true and well archived.

Hope you didn't spend your entire welfare check on those 2 cards. Think of the children.
