…Where Life's a Pitch
Just for one day I thought I’d write a short post to share an incredible purchase from one of my favorite places to buy cards. At first glance it may appear to be a normal 1988 Score baseball card of an Atlanta Braves HOFer. But this one is serial numbered in a very unusual way:
I didn’t even know that Score had issued a serial #’d version of this card but when it was offered for $41.20 delivered, I had to jump on it. Now I gotta dig out my 1988 Score baseball cards and see if any of those are also serial #’d. I’ll keep you posted if I find any. Stay tuned…
Long time set collector with a particular passion for Topps flagship baseball cards along with some cards from other sets/sports (almost no Upper Deck, Panini, high-end or hockey to see here).
All this time and I never knew! I’ll have to check my collection for this unique card!
4.1.20 – quite clever! i miss out on all the deals. this card – the oddest thing going around the blogs today. that, and I was finally laid off today – that’s no joke.
Thanks for the compliment, Julie! Sorry that you got laid off, that’s messed up.Hopefully that will not last long. As always I wish you the best!
Nice find. My 1988 Score Ken Griffey Jr. rookie card has the same serial numbering.
Thanks Mark! Regarding your ’88 Griffey RC, that’s awesome. I hope you paid less than $100 for yours.
