wow this can get addicting. its like playing slots! i had 11...now i want to buy like 200 more of these! but what are the 1950's cards you get all like psa 1? and it having autographs in these is awesome.
i can start to see these cards going way up on ebay now. maybe?
If anyone wants to trade me for anything on my list, I'll be looking for Reds in years equal to or earlier than whatever card you want. Name permitting ;-) not going to trade Mike Schmidt for Kal Daniels.
I collect Seattle Pilots autographs, 1969 Topps autographs, Signed Mickey Mantle Home Run History cards and have a JC Martin collection (he was my college Baseball coach) Doug
Funny, I did the same thing last night--picked up a lot of 9 of the #1 Campanellas. Figured it was worth the shot to see if certain numbers hold better results.
I just redeemed like 12 of them and got a Steve Carlton rookie. All the other were junk with like (2) 1959 cards. So I guess it was worth doing it for the Carlton

<< <i>Funny, I did the same thing last night--picked up a lot of 9 of the #1 Campanellas. Figured it was worth the shot to see if certain numbers hold better results. >>
my 1953 card came from card # 8 and my Dave McNally auto came from card #4 - Got a 1987 common from one of my # 1 cards. I think everything is random

You seem very matter of fact about the Carlton. Have you seen what everyone else here is getting? You should be ecstatic. I'll take the '59s if you don't want them.

The drawing, IIRC, is for a complete 52 set (which will of course include the Mick)

amazing - so far 135 1952s have been redeemed, among them a very nice proportion of high numbers including Jackie Robinson and Roy Campanella. I can't imagine the thrill that would come over me to find out I just 'won' either of those cards, although I've already got a Campy. Additionally, the Jackie is listed as 312B. I was unaware of a variation existing for that card - anyone have an additional info on that? Eddie Mathews has been redeemed, too - wow.
did anyone happen to watch fox news this morning they had cal ripken on with the 52 in a shoe box talking about the contest, i was half asleep still, wonder if they utube stuff like that?,,bj

The card that's picture didn't downlowd is a 2005 Topps Sean Burnett
If you count my cards and are like Matt that's only 59, I got dupes of the 2005 Pirates Team Card. Originally I had a 1968 Topps Hank Allen, but I traded it to jeffcbay for a 1972 Tom Grieve. Thanks Jeff!
Like Zep I too am addicted and have been bidding on 'unredeemed' lots on Ebay. Just picked up 200 from tntnorthnj, whom I've bought several items from before.

So, that leaves two for everyone else after I pull mine??
Seriously, I see the feeding frenzy has started - redemption cards going for $1-2 each on the Bay. I guess it is cheaper than the lottery though.

there all # tmc-1 through 10. 10 different cards. with his feedback im sure a quick question and hell answer it. its probably 310 card lot which will probably sell for around 300-375$

No problem, thank you! I love the trading aspect to it. I'm hoping I can trade my way to a Ripken somewhere... any Ripken. You would think a 1968 Topps common could be traded for a late 80s or early 90s Ripken base card. I've been trying to offer trades, but no takers so far.

just make sure they haven't been redeemed already!
anyone else catch that? im guessing there is no redemption code for the 52 mantle. its going to be a random drawing to the nearest topps employee..
