I know it's been a while since the last batch of new information but school has taken a lot of my time.

Here are the most recent postings. Collectors of Rickey Henderson, Clemente, and Reggie Jackson should find the most recent post informative. Extensive info on the 1986 Topps Mini variations and this board's recent 1991 Topps finds are posted as well. Enjoy.

    If it makes you feel any better, I can pay you in 2010 Topps Ty Wiggningtons. image

    Since they are part of the TBC subset, you can flip through a 5000ct pretty quickly by just observing the tops of the cards (they all the TBC heading).

    Are you sure? I had the Reggie Jackson, Rickey Henderson and Roberto Clemente in the last couple of months. The sat around for a while but them one guy scooped up the Henderson and Clemente in one shot.

    Tip: You can find 50-100 ct lots of the TBC cards sometimes on ebay. I found a couple Reggie's this way. Much easier than pulling from wax since nobody knows what packaging they come from and how seldom they show up. It makes me wonder if Gilkeson saw a lot of them back then or just a few examples.

    I wish I could help but that guy bought the only copies of those two guys I had ever come across. And I thought that I might have a Reggie Jackson still but I guess not. Take my advice and find a cheap deal on a few bulk lots of those (especially of Reggie Jackson), it's probably the best way to find one.

    And, related to 1987 Topps, there is supposed to be a version of card #4 Davey Lopes RB that has a 1985 copyright date on back. I have over 200 copies of this card and have yet to find one. However, I have found a copy that says 1957 and 1587 in the copyright line.
