I was not into comics, nor am I now (though I do enjoy the thought of having them, plus, I've sold about 40,000 of them over the past 4 years or so.) Do you know IF there's a Nolan Ryan version of this?

Thanks for the info on a card I didn't know about either. I could be wrong, but I *think* the guy who split them up to sell might have gotten them from that buyer.

I have never seen one myself, but then again, I think I've only seen 3 of these types of cards.

RE: Mouschi's Rolling Canseco Pickup Thread - mouschi3 - 06-18-2015 I'm not sure why so many people have issues with cards not having logos - I think they have done a great job hiding the fact with some cool innovations and designs. Leaf is my next subject. I fell in love with the "PURE" set. This set features an on card ... errrr ... on glass autograph, and hand serial numbered. I now have ALL of them, minus the 1/1. LOVE THEM! Regular, #/22, #/10 and #/5. As you can see, they are CLEARLY cool. (bwahahaha) I was toying with a similar idea last year. You may or may not recall, but here is what I came up with: If you wanted to, you can read about how these were created by going here: http://tanmanbaseballfan.blogspot.com/2014/05/twilight-gold-acetate-customs.html RE: Mouschi's Rolling Canseco Pickup Thread - djohn - 06-19-2015 I agree that the Leaf Pure cards are nice. I like glass and acetate cards with autographs, but you have to be careful how and where you store them, as they are notorious for having the autographs fade over time.

I better take them out from behind the magnifying glass that is between them and direct sunlight! I rotate cards on the stands that are on my desk, but they are mostly cards i make that I display. The PURE cards are in a box. I need to figure out a better way of displaying my stuff!

Since the cards are recessed in the box, they never see direct light. RE: Mouschi's Rolling Canseco Pickup Thread - mouschi3 - 06-23-2015 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 way, I don't have an issue with sticker autos, if done correctly ... much like I have no problems w/out team logos if done correctly.) Here is the picture of it. It is not ugly at all, but not eye popping. Later that day, I saw the other Topps Series 2 Canseco autograph. This is # to 25. My gut reaction was that I liked the first one better than the 2nd! They look like the parents of the 1992 Score Impact Players card. After a while though, they grew on me. I don't know why or how. Perhaps because they are genuine Topps cards that I have never seen before. I am not sure. A friend of mine said that these are a "necessary evil" - and for super collectors, I think that is a great way of putting it. I don't think these are ugly designs at all. Upon initial inspection, I just felt like they were generic looking. Thankfully for me though, I have truly fallen in love with them. As a side note, I now think that a modified 1992 Score Impact Players card with an autograph may be a pretty dang good idea! Both of the latest Topps Canseco cards are incoming, and I cannot wait to have them in hand. The Heart of the Order card has a base card which I have incoming as well. As always, if you have any rare Canseco - let me know! |
