these cards all came from arpsmith. a while ago. i've been remiss in showcasing them, and then i received another package in the mail from him yesterday. i can't let a previous trade get lapped like that (although the same thing is happening with the junior junkie). for better or for worse, here are some of the very nice cards i received from adam as part of a prize package/trade.
2002 topps chrome alex cora
my scanner did a nice thing here. the scan of that card sings. it's very nice.
1969 topps willie davis
three dog night with some vintage joy for the world.
2000 fleer greats of the game tommy john
i really liked this set when it was released. i remember treating myself to some packs after a job interview. lots of dodgers on the checklist, too.
1984 fleer derrel thomas
my second favorite fleer card of thomas. i like how this one tells me that he plays infield and outfield. what about catcher? a true utility guy.
speaking of catchers, here's a 2001 upper deck todd hundley
and a 2004 upper deck paul loduca
the best thing about those cards is not the lurking kaz ishii behind loduca, but rather the little dodger stadium photo on the lower front of the loduca card. i missed upper deck cards in 2004 (other than the legends set) so i don't think i knew chavez ravine was on the dodger flagship cards. the photo, by the way, is the same one that's on the backs of the legends cards.
2005 donruss hong-chih kuo
channeling jerry reuss with that haircut
and finally, a 2002 donruss best of fan club chan ho park jersey relic
it's part of a 'league leaders' subset maybe? park did lead the league in starts in 2001.
adam - thanks for these cards and thanks for the additional cards that i will try to post before we get into another trade.
