eBay Pick-Up: 3000 Hit Club Bat Card of Stan Musial

I picked up this 2000 Fleer 3000 Club bat card of Stan Musial about 2 weeks ago. I got it on eBay for $15.24 shipped. I love it and it is perfect for my 3000 Hit Club bat card collection. This is my 11th bat card of a 3000 Hit Club member. Only 17 more to go.

TTM Failure: Stan Musial

Back in 2009 I sent a ttm request to Stan Musial and recieved a signed postcard from him. You can see it here. I noticed that he changed the postcard that he is sending out now, and I liked the new one much better than the one I already had so I sent another request. It was a fairly quick return and I got the new postcard, but it wasn't signed. I might try again to see what happens.

My first look at 2011 Topps

I know, I know. I'm a little late. Oh well. On Thursday I stopped at Target to see if they had any 2011 Topps, but they didn't. So I went to another Target and they had rack packs and regular packs. I picked up a rack pack and here are the highlights. All cards, except the two D-Backs, are up for trade. leave me a comment if you are interested. Thanks!

Arizona Diamondbacks Team Card - great shot of (l to r) La Roche, Young, Upton, Reynolds and Drew.

Miguel Montero - I like the design of the base set. It's clean and features all relevant information (name, team, position) and I like the baseball's 3-D effect.

*Claimed* Diamond Anniversary Parallel Kevin Gregg - I don't know what to think about these yet. Really it's just another parallel.

60 Years of Topps Roy Campanella - Love the concept, but when are they going to run out of cards to do this for.

60 Years of Topps The Lost Cards Stan Musial - Great idea for a set!

Diamond Duos Albert Pujols and Miguel Cabrera - Don't like these unless the two players are esily conected.

* Claimed* Kimball Champions Victor Martinez - Like these, but don't have the patience to put together a 150 card insert set.

Target Red Diamond Jimmie Foxx - I like the idea of this insert set, but can't stand this particular card.

Topps 60 Troy Tuluwitzki - Not sure how they came up with each category. For instance this card features Slugging from Clean-Up Spot 2005 -2010, seems pretty random to me.
