I JUST WONDERED IF ANYONE EVER THOUGHT OF......

                 


                     I recently saw a YouTube short where a guy bored out of his mind started showing all the 1986 Topps Traded card of the man you see atop of this post Dick Williams. Mind you I found it ironic that I am currently reading Dick's Autobiography "No More Mr. Nice Guy" after watching the video I passed on the link to a fellow collector to mention he wanted some of my dupes of stuff so I joked with him about talking about dupes imagine if you had this many of dupes of 1 card.


I am only on Chapter 2 but the book is interesting to say the least.

                 So he said it was kinda like being BIPPED!!!! right away I said Cha-Ching cause Bip Roberts is also in the 1986 Topps Traded set a long with Mr. Williams here. The guy couldn't believe he did a move that I normally do. Anyways it made me wonder if anyone has ever thought of making a set of cards & believe me I have seen people try only to not finish it but I wondered has anyone thought of making a set of multiple cards so it takes 9 pages of just 1 card times that per how many cards are within that set to make a set. What I am referring about is something like this shown in the example below. 



             Now I have to ask if you are willing to do something like this. Let me know in the comments below for I could make it interesting for you. I could offer my suggestion on what set I like to see & if it was accomplished I would personally like to see you get credited with it on my blog as well as something else. You'll have to check the list of sets I would like to see but if none of these sets mine you the set has to be more than 125 cards in the set cause then it makes it a bit of challenge so here's my top picks & again if you're interested please let me know in the comments or anyone has a better selection of sets maybe we can compromise on that particular one. Without further ado here's the sets. No particular order on why I chose these sets either & yes if error cards & variants as well any update or traded sets as well no inserts please I like to see a master of the masterpiece of the set.

1. 1981 Donruss 

2. 1982 Fleer 

3. 1982 Donruss 

4. 1985 Fleer 

5. 1989 Fleer 

6. 1989 Upper Deck 

7. `89/`90 Fleer Basketball 

8. `89/`90 Hoops 

9. `84/`85 Topps Hockey 

10. 1989 Score Football

          Just a reminder that I'll be leaving for the National in about 13 days from today if you want me to find something at the National & is reasonable & your willing to get me something back in return lmk those of you that have my email address let me know otherwise I'll be shopping for myself. Until then I am reminded by Rogers Hornsby saying "Any Ballplayer who doesn't sign autographs for little kids ain't an American, He's a Communist."

  1. Not quite sure what you mean, but I know Gavin from Baseball Card Breakdown has a good amount of the 1990 Upper Deck Marquis Grissom card.
