#94 Tony Perez

#STL-RS Red Schoendienst Cardinals Greats

#68 Ozzie Smith Greats of the Game Autograph

Overall, I loved this break. Lots of great players from my young days and two fantastic autographs. I'm tempted to get another box but chances are slim that it would be half as good as this one.

2006 Fleer Greats of the Game

Pack 14

#47 Harmon Killebrew

#67 Nolan Ryan

#CHC-MG Mark Grace Cubs Greats Game Used Bat Card

#STL-SC Steve Carlton Cardinals Greats

When I collected big time, Grace was always my favorite player and the focus of my collection. This is the first time I have ever pulled a Grace GU or Auto.

I'm really like the looks of these cards and the checklist. Let's hope for some good autograph's.

2008 Topps Co-Signers

The second box I bought from Blowout was 2008 Topps Co-Signers. It's supposed to have three autographs per box with one being a dual. Lot's of parallels.

Pack 1

#001 Jacoby Ellsbury

#018 Barry Zito

#036 Ken Griffey Jr

#080 David Wright

#097 JR Towles RC (God, I hate the new rookie card rules and logo)

#055 Ichiro/Kenji Johjima Green Parallel #'d 064/200

Looks like this set is an all stars or rc set.

2006 Fleer Greats of the Game

This box came today from Blowout Sports Cards. Odds of 2 Auto's and 2 Game Used cards seemed worth it and it sounded like a fun break. I'm going to break a pack a day on these. Most cards will be listed on sportlots shortly, unless I pull any Tiger cards.

Pack 1

#23 Dave Concepcion

#38 Fred McGriff

#41 Gary Matthews

#62 Luis Tiant

#CHC-FJ Fergie Jenkins Cubs Greats

New Boxes Coming

I ordered two boxes of cards from Blowout today and they should be here on Wednesday. I got a box of 2006 Fleer Greats of the Game and 2008 Topps Co-Signers, so I'll be getting some autographs.

There's also a new card show coming to the Rock Financial Showcase that I'm going to check out this weekend. Hopefully it will be worth it. I used to go to Gibraltar twice a month but that show has gone down a lot lately.

I also still have a few more packs from my mixed box to open.

2008 Topps Opening Day

Next up in from the mixed box is 1 pack of 2008 Topps Opening Day. I never understood this set. It is basically just a parallel version of the Topps base set. Did anyone actually collect these except player collectors?
