The twins got a package yesterday from Mark(Cincyredlegs).
They got several unopened packs with stars on top(Dave Parker, Eric Davis etc.)
They busted a few of the 1986 rack packs and were so happy to do so. They got a bat card of Ken Griffey Jr., several Eric Davis, Dave Parker cards, Joey Votto chrome cards, Kahns singles and just a full box of stuff from him.
No worries CPAMIKE, they kept a Dave Parker and Eric Davis rack unopened.
They said to tell my friend that he is "cool" for doing that.
I want to share a quick story with you.
My wife was cleaning up the boys room with them the other day and there were some beat up baseball cards on the floor and my wife asked Jay if he wanted to go ahead and throw them out. She said he looked at her and said "No, I like those. They remind me of Daddy."
To me, it means alot that my son would say that at his age. To all of you who have sent Reds stuff to my boys I appreciate it.
Here are a few pics.

Great job by Mark sending your boys that package. One of the best guys on the board.

Any unopened Baseball cello and rack packs and boxes from the 1970's and early 1980s.
BTW, my girls and I will open up some of the junk wax I have to try and find Reds. The other day I told my 9 year old to go get us a few packs. She comes back with my 84 Donruss wax box and says "Daddy, let's try and get the chicken card"
I had to re-direct her to the 88 Score.

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

Actually my kids never go into the vault unless they are escorted, by me.

Thanks Doug. I will show her tomorrow. I guess I need to buy some 82/83 donruss packs so we can start busting.

How about we edit to say No one goes into the vault unless they are escorted by you.

No, of course not. They just have to stay behind the plexiglass.
