My Trout Stash
I knew I had a bunch of Trout RC but went through some boxes and this is what I found!
Not too bad. I thought I had 9-10 of his base RC .... But found a few more!
I'm pretty happy, to say the least
Who knows, if I keep looking, I might find some more
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

Wow, Doc! Those are great! Those Target Reds are super tough(and way undervalued in the OPG, in my opinion).

Love that red. Have the blue myself, but never found any target blasters. Even called in some favors with the Excell rep and he couldn't even find them.

Thanks Aaron, I agree. I haven't seen too many Red Target Trouts. One of the benefits of NOT having a LCS and relying on retail ...exclusive red and blue parallel cards.

Thanks, Flip!
Thanks, Brian!
I need to keep 'prospecting for gold' in my 2011 cards ... I might have a Gold bordered Trout in there ... I hope.

Yeah, thanks for reminding me, Joe. I do need to do something about that card. Maybe my first Trout auto is hidden in that Rip card?
The Blue Walmart and Red Target parallel cards combined with my obsession of completing my manufactured patch cards, coupled with my need to find more code cards for the million card giveaway really had me sucking up every blaster I could find. Sorry to add to your want list, Brian, but they ARE cool looking cards!
