Trader’s Backlog: Loot From LaLoosh
New Bagwell Alert! Just look at this oh-so-nineties card here. This is a Soaring Stars insert from 1996 Fleer – although I’m not sure how that bubbly background depicts soaring, but who cares?
This one’s another TCDB trade from back in November, and these cards came to me from LaLoosh, who’s real name is Dave. I was able to help him out with a stack of 2018 Chrome and Chrome Update, and in return he sent several new Astros for the collection. This was one of two new cards of Jeff, you’ll have to make it to the end to see the other.
So what else did Dave send?
Some deliciously 80’s Glenn Davis oddballs. Looks like Glenn didn’t fare too well on that ’87 Classic shot.
Some positively perfect Pacific cards – specifically some Crown Collection cards from 1999 and 2000.
Minis galore! I was able to land five new 2018 Ginter minis. The McCannonball is an A&G back.
Woo-hoo! It’s a lovely relic card from 2003 Tradition, and it utilizes the position diamond as the swatch location. I can get behind that for sure. This guy’s not numbered, but supposedly the print run on these was just 100. It’s always a good day when I can add a new Bagwell relic to the collection.
Thanks for the trade, Dave! I’ll check those want lists again soon.
Love those GQ Tarot of the Diamond inserts!
I pulled a few too but couldn't bring myself to trade them. I think perhaps, the others should be rounded up and paged. Great concept for the GQ line.
Really don't know what Fleer was thinking with using the same photo multiple times on those Team Leaders cards…
