Retail visit - Cooperstown box and 15 packs of 2013 Bowman
Retail visit - Cooperstown box and 15 packs of 2013 Bowman
You figure after 15 packs of 2013 Bowman you would get one Correa but no.
At least the stuff was discounted.
The 2013 Panini Cooperstown box yielded a very nice blue signature on card auto of Dennis Eckersley which I think is undervalued by Beckett and so I will probably hold on to it though I have marked it in my organize.
Other interesting cards in Panini Cooperstown box: really like this set by the way - wish they would get a damn license to use the uniforms:
Ozzie Smith Colgan's Chips
Tom Seaver Colgan's Chips
Walter Johnson Colgan's Chips
King Kelly Colgan's Chips (not for trade)
Connie Mack Colgan's Chips (not for trade)
Paul Molitor HOF induction
Orlando Cepeda International Play
Catfish Hunter Green Crystal (not for trade)
Mickey Cochrane Green Crystal (not for trade)
Orlando Cepeda Green Crystal
Now for the 2013 Bowman:
I was pleasantly surprised to get an auto of Kansas City Royals shortstop prospect Orlando Calixte
The retail autos are 1 in 35 packs so I beat the odds.
I had a brief thrill when I saw what looked to be a 2011 Bowman Chrome Blue Bryce Harper but then realized it is a blue sapphire reprint but I am still putting it in the PC.
Here are some notables:
Manny Machado Hometown RC (will be hard to get from me)
Robinson Cano Blue #/500
Starlin Castro blue #/500
Colby Rasmus Blue #/500
Willians Astudillo Prospects purple
Brock Holt RC
Tony Cingrani RC
Ji-Man Choi purple
Dane Phillips purple
Edwin Diaz purple
Jose Ramirez purple
Cole Hamels gold
Alex Rodriguez gold
Miguel Cabrera gold
Troy Tulowitzki gold
Fujikawa gold
Gregory Polanco prospects
Jorge Bonifacio Chrome prospects
Jairo Beras Chrome prospects
Matt Wisler Chrome prospects
Lucas Giolito prospects
Impressions: there are a lot of bad prospects in this set but some good ones. I wouldn't pay a premium for hobby boxes.
If it wasn't for the Eckersley, this would not have been a great trip but the Machado and Orlando auto pay for the outlay on the Bowman.
All of the Bowman cards are marked for trade unless otherwise marked
