Finally got around to scanning some Griffeys from the last couple of weeks. A few from a couple of trades (thanks guys), and some more from a huge group I bought. Might have to split into 2 posts.

Really like these old Pinnacles


Some golds



Some others

Yep, I don't even go after over-rated overpriced gu'ed. (though I would not mind snagging an auto here and there)

Still looks weird seeing Griffey in a White Sox uniform

Nice pickups! I love that top row in your first post. I would say I guess I know who to go to when I load my Griffey's and try to unload them but I have a feeling you probably have most of them!

Thanks for sharing.

sick cards man...I always loved collecting Junior. Best there ever was!

[patrickhef30]

Thanks guys! I quit collecting in the early 90's till a couple of years ago. (except for a couple years in the early 2000's). I'm a Braves fan but Griffey was always my favorite as a youngster. I don't really collect much Braves stuff, and got tired of spending my $$$ on stuff and getting crappy GU'ed of players I really don't care about. I think a lot of the GU'ed looks ugly anyway, so a couple years ago I decided to concentrate most of my resources on Griffey inserts and base I like.

I really missed out on some great inserts during my hiatus. I started off mainly working on Topps stuff, recently discovered the Pinnacle stuff it's just awesome and the Donruss/Leaf/Studio too. Upper Deck has yet to grow on me, just too much going on on most of them. To me, the funnest part of getting back into collecting is scanning and sharing. Not a lot of fun to look at em and bury em in a box in a closet.

Patrick,

Those scans look great! It's awesome to see the pickups you're getting. I see a couple duplicates if you'd like to trade them lmk. Those Pinnacle inserts/artist proofs/starbusrts were some of the best inserts ever IMO. I have a few more cards for you to look at and LMK if you need them. Again congrats on all the pickups glad to have you on here as a member.
