I've Got Mail ! From Covered in Wrappers and Night Owl

Running to first, I am so far out of the base line I should be called out by even the least experienced umpire! Read on to see why.

I am just so far behind on everything right now I really don't where to start, so I'll just start!.

I received two packages in the mail this week. One from everybody's friend, Night Owl.

He sent this great mixture of Tribe cards with a litle bit of everything. New, old, retro, rookies.

I really like the Cy Young (lower right) and the Asdrubal Cabrera is my first National Chicle Tribe card.

Next are these 1991 Score Rising Stars. I only had one from that set, Beau Allred, so these are all new additions to my collection!

He also sent this pair of 2010 Bowman, Bo Greenwell cards. Bo, the son of former Red Sox star Mike Greenwell, was drafted #6 in 2007 by Cleveland.

One more card in the package gets a well deserved place in one of binders also.

2002 SPx Winning Materials Thome/Sabathia dual jersey. Even though they have both left the wigwam !

Thanks for the great cards!

Oh, by the way, as I was loading the photos, I realized I hadn't posted the last cards Night Owl sent me. Sorry, I told you I was a little screwed up right now. Between graduation, vacation, getting the garden out and my neice's wedding I'm stretched a little thin right now.

This package started out with some very nice shiny, chrome Topps.

Next, a little Heritage action with Choooooooo and a Brantley rookie card.

Night Owl also knows of my childhood affection for "The Mick" . How much more would he have done had he not stepped on that sprinkler.

Just for good measure, he threw in a couple oldies but goodies, too.

Wilkens and Veryzer take me back to the good old days. We still lost, but it seemed like more fun.

Ok. I think I'm caught up with you now, Night Owl. Thank you very much for everything!!
Now we'll move on to the other package I received last week.

This came from Marie ( Covered in Wrappers ) over at A Cardboard Problem.

Wow ! 50 card packs of 2010 Topps! Well she sent the wrappers.I wish I could find some place close where I could get these.

Does anyone know how many different players are depicted on these wrappers?

I'd like to have one of each. Were they available in series 1 as well ?
I also like the regular hobby wrappers as I can't get them either.

She also gave me a good start on series 2 Tribe cards.

Plus some 2010 Bowman, including a pair of Mastersons. One of them the gold version.

Oh, by the way, as I was loading the photos, I realized I hadn't posted the last cards Covered in Wrappers sent me. Sorry, I told you I was a little screwed up right now. Between graduation, vacation, getting the garden out and my neice's wedding I'm stretched a little thin right now.
( Yeah, I'm really behind !! )









More wrappers ! I guess if she's covered in them, she needs to get a rid of a few.

Once again, I can really use the hobby versions. I get most of the regular ones from the chain stores and such but high end and hobby packs are hard to come by out here in the "sticks" !

More additions for the wrapper binders.I keep saying I'll do more posts on the wrapper collection (and I will someday!!)

Marie's last package had a big stack of Tribe cards! The highlight are shown below. I'll let the photos do the talking as these have long been placed in my binders.

Some very nice copper 206's.

Nice mixture here, with the refractor.

Now, I should be caught up with the cards I've received.

Marie, Thank you very much for the great cards and wrappers!!

I working on a package for you with that guy you collect. What's his name again? lol.

If I have have missed anyone else I'm very sorry. I hope to get back to my old routines now and get caught up on a lot of things!
