Turkey Red is missed

Turns out, I'm not alone in missing the Turkey Red set. Mario over at Wax Heaven recently wrote about how he misses the set. Topps - bring it back for real!

Anyway, at the top of this post are some sweet Turkey Red cards. I think these are pretty much from 2005. What a sweet set.

As a side note, you'll no doubt notice the Alex Rodriguez card in there. What the heck do I do with all my A-Rod cards now? Is everyone still collecting him? Has he lost all appeal? Is it too early to tell?

Topps Finest 2009

Mario at Wax Heaven has a preview of the 2009 Topps Finest set. I have to say, it looks good. I especially like the on-patch autograph - a really nice touch. Maybe I'll have to collect this set this year. It's not quite Turkey Red, but I'll take it.

Once more about Obama

Wax Heaven has a short post about Obama and the card industry.

Wax Heaven comes through again

Once again, Mario at Wax Heaven has written some things I find interesting.

Here are two posts that I liked. They are both about card sets, one's a preview of things to come!

2009 Upper Deck Goudey

I think the Goudey set is pretty sweet - particularly the buyback card. I'd love to snag one of those!
