As many of you know already, I am running a contest for forum members to guess how much this card ends up selling for: . Whoever gets closest, gets this: People have been asking me like crazy ... WHAT IS IN THE CUSTOM RIP CARD!??! I'm going to leak a little bit of this here. It has to do with this: www.TheMouschiCode.com Think: The Ginter Code Lite ... for Dummies. It should be a fun little scavenger hunt for whomever wins, along with a small prize at the end. Everyone gets 3 guesses if you haven't already posted in my
Ever since I debuted my upper lip equipped with a manly handlebar moustache, I have heard TANNER! You absolutely MUST make a card with your moustache (or mustache, if you prefer spelling it that way.) We all knew that it was going to happen. Well, friends - the time has come. Years ago, Allen & Ginter debuted this idea with a hair from Abraham Lincoln. It was a framed mini relic. I was going to do that as well, but instead, I decided to amp it up a bit. Instead of using an Allen & Ginter card, I opted for a full size
I'm not exactly the kind of guy who plays it "cool". If something awesome has happened to me, I get pumped about it and write until it is out of my system. It isn't an ego thing at all; it is more of an expression of thankfulness to God for allowing something great to happen to someone like me, who is so undeserving. In light of this, I am determined to not introduce myself to strangers as "AAAHHH!!! The guy who is on Beckett Monthly with Jose Canseco!!!" because I think people would take it wrong. Sure, I have taken
I had a picture of a nice new shiny rainbow autograph set I was going to post up today, but it will have to wait. Today, I got it a few squares that appear to have completed a neat little oddball chapter in my collection. Based upon my research, these discs were produced by MSA (Mike Schechter Associates) for various grocery store chains and bakeries. MSA produced several sets of these in the 80's and 90's from Fantastic Sam's to give away for free whenever you got a haircut, to Hostess potato chips, to Iced Tea. You will see what
This week, I had several things going on. I updated my checklist up to 2014, which took HOURS, but it was worth it. The only downside I see is how many cards are out there that I will never see. Did you know that Canseco has over 300 cards that are 1/1's alone? Crazy! Hopefully my checklist will assist others when they are digging in their collections to sell me Canseco cards I don't have. One of the cards that came in this week was a 2015 Gypsy Queen Canseco autographed mini #/10. Topps never put it in a frame,
There is a guy I know who, by the world's standards is FILTHY rich. The amount of time and money he gives is negligible, when compared to what he has. He is the type of guy that, while many look at, think that he is doing alright, and probably a good guy, but if you were to be able to camp out in his brain for a while, you would be amazed with how many thoughts start out with "I", "me" or "my". I'm embarrassed to say this, but the person I'm talking about is me. See? There I go
Greetings, ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to this evening's edition of mouschipiece theatre ... Tonight, we feature the forgotten jumbo card. It is forgotten, because it is in my closet, propped up by a wall, and was mostly covered by a 1980's Canseco punch out mask prior to my cleaning kick tonight. I've got to hand it to Topps here. They did a top notch job on this. The fingerprints of craftsmanship are all over this. It truly has a unique touch. The card? A mega 12x18 Topps Archives TOUCHED BY GREATNESS. It is Hand Signed. It is Hand Numberd. and
Uninspired. Generic. No Soul. That is what I thought of the latest Canseco offering from Topps Tier One. A small picture of Canseco on the right, with a BIG open space for an autograph on the left. I picked up one that was cheap, but it had an autograph at the bottom so I picked up a copy that had his autograph smack dab in the middle. My thoughts of the new Topps Series 2 Canseco cards continued along in the same vein as Teir One. 1) The first one is an SP and a sticker auto (which, by the
