One that got away, lol..Glad to see it found a good home, though..

rtimmer · August 13, 2016 8:59AM

Great Molly absent the red ink bleed so common at the bottom of the card.

Adding to the OPC run today here's my Ozzie the lone member of the class of '02 if I remember correctly.

grote15 · August 13, 2016 9:05AM

Very nice, Ryan!

Speaking of Ozzie, here is the Topps version:

Yes, but you'd have to take the shrinkwrap off that box to show the Jackson pack.

I was also hoping you might have that 55 cello with Clemente on top! LOL!

So you are now doubting that a Steve Hart wrapped box has in it what is listed LOL!

I don't doubt it's in the box, Craig~but we need to free that pack from underneath the cellophane wrap to give it proper recognition.

This is awesome it's a first for me being accused of for favoring baseball over basketball but good point maybe I should be doing the basketball HOF selections for this century too. Anyway I've got a good one to add to the what's in the box controversy:

UFFDAH · August 22, 2016 2:29AM

Here is a favorite from my collection - 3 Dickersons

rtimmer · March 12, 2017 3:44PM

Congrats to Tim Raines along with Rodriquez and Bagwell for making the 2017 HOF class. I need to get working to keep up on this set again. Does anyone have a Biggio, Rodriquez, Bagwell, Piazza, or Pedro Martinez pack or rack showing rookie they'd like to sell??

magellan · March 12, 2017 5:18PM

Sick stuff here, these packs rock.

Ha! I remember when that rack was for sale on BBCE!! Were you the original buyer? I eyed that one for some time

UFFDAH · March 13, 2017 8:47AM

Hi ChiefsFan - Yes I purchased that Dickerson rack from BBCE. That rack was on their site for a bit and I could not believe it was not getting scarfed up. Glad I got it and still have it.

Congrats to Ken Griffey Jr. on making the hall! Here's my favorite pack

I have an 89 Griffey Jr Feer cello currently running in an auction on eBay if anyone is interested .. also a 89 Donruss rack with a Mattingly showing.

Congrats on an amazing collection .
My favorite would probably have to be your Rickey Henderson pack

I used to have a bunch including the infamous Billy Ripken F*ck Face bat handle one on a few cellos
I may still have some buried away, but I kind of just toss things in tubs and forget about them , so I can open them like little treasure chests at a later date

mintonlypls · March 13, 2017 1:20PM

Very much like the Clemente...and it is well centered!

rtimmer · May 28, 2018 8:07PM

Any Pedro or Biggio packs out there for sale??

KendallCat · May 29, 2018 4:36AM

I think I have a Boggs 83 Topps rack as well, and I really should collect a few more of these. Neat way to collect rookies and it does nit break the bank.

KC

mintonlypls · May 29, 2018 6:31AM

Keith...

I very much like your Henderson RC rack pack...the card is even centered!!!

If I recall (and correct me if I am wrong), but the Pedro Martinez rookie is part of the 1991 UD Final Edition only sold in complete set form, not in packs.

I have a 1989 Donruss rack packs with Biggio on the top. Any interest?

Stone193 · May 29, 2018 2:24PM

Is this a recent pickup Keith?

Pedro is actually in the 1991 Classic packs as his first appearance in a pack and they're decent to be able to see the cards showing on front and back.

I was not aware of the Classic card, thanks for the info!

Mike

I think I picked it up last spring or early summer. I also grabbed a Boggs rookie rack as well. Thinking of doing a rack with Gwynn, Clemens, McGwire, Sandberg, Ripken... some good players who won’t break the bank. Would love a Brett rookie rack but that might be a unicorn

I've got Lee Smith covered, anyone have a Harold Baines cello?

rtimmer · June 21, 2019 8:25PM

Still looking for a Baines if anyone has one got this a couple years ago though

I have a Baines on the back of a rack - unfortunately it's damaged in production.

doubledragon · June 22, 2019 9:21AM

A lot of beautiful unopened packs on this thread.

jalovra · June 23, 2019 4:43PM

Awesome packs! Love to see the 70's packs that have survived the "rip it" itch. The only ones in my collection also include Pete Rose Showing.

rtimmer · September 27, 2019 2:23PM

Picked up a few more for the hall of fame set. Still need a few more let me know if you have any

ReggieCleveland · September 29, 2019 7:30AM

Future Hall of Fame? Acuna on top and Soto on bottom.

rtimmer · September 29, 2019 7:15PM

Oh found one more lying around I forgot I had. #one more closer.

rtimmer · December 1, 2019 9:12AM

Got the Baines pack an 81 classic grocery cello

coinspacks · December 1, 2019 12:01PM

did you see the chamberlain pack on goldin auctions?

tkersting · December 1, 2019 3:27PM

The chamberlain pack is nice. Too bad it’s got a tear in the wrapper from the gum on the right side. I’m sure that wasn’t there when it was originally graded.

Left side, not right side.

@coinspacks said:

Yes I’m actually The high bidder on the pack, so let’s not advertise it too loud. On the negative side it’s definitely a 6 now with the gum tear, on the positive side a 6 is still the best pack out there with 2 graded in almost 60 years. That pack is in the top 5 ever to get!

rtimmer · December 3, 2019 9:09PM

Making some more progress updating this and getting closer.

rtimmer · January 12, 2020 10:30AM

Picked up a nice Frank Thomas this week and closed out my Maddux need to:

Fantastic stuff here! But they look like they are all mech errors; someone accidentally put Molitor on the flip instead of Trammell

(I grew up in the Detroit area and was always a big fan of Trammell in his playing days)

rtimmer · February 4, 2020 8:13PM

2 78 racks with 3 HOF rookies what a yr!

flcardtrader · February 5, 2020 4:47AM

RTimmer.....methinks you are a hoarder of HoF cardboard.

Admittely, I am jealous.

These are sweet - thanks for sharing!
