While I wait for my wife at the dentists office, she is getting a tooth pulled, I brought my laptop and connected to my hotspot so I can finally create a new post.
It may not be the most ideal place to do a post, but finding time to do one is what matters. I also need the distraction while I sit here. I hate the dentists.
*looks up for a second to see only one person sitting in the waiting room* *good, they won't think this person jamming on their keyboard excited about pictures of people on pieces of cardboard isn't weird*
One of my last posts I shared how my mother-in-law found some cards and an autograph football at an auction, this time she strikes gold again when she went to a yard sale.
This is a decent size stack of 9-card pages filled with cards. I am unsure what she paid for these, but some superb stuff within that fits my collecting profile.
Kick it off with some 1992 Topps baseball.
Griffey! I am pretty sure I have this one, but still, it's Junior!
Another slide show! Cool!
A nice mix of baseball including some Pucketts.
Anytime I find 90's Finest and then 90's Fleer Metal Universe base, it's a win.
A couple Clementes
Middle row of 90's inserts. Those are gem finds to me.
More gem finds here. 90's Pinnacle Mint, Puckett and Griffey Dream Team and Prism.
Now onto some football. This page has a 90's insert already in the top corner for the PC.
It's still so hard for me to see Mark Brunell in anything but a Jags uniform.
I will have to see if I need any of these for my base set.
Brunell rookie!
90's Emmitt Smith insert with some shine. Not sure if it's a tough find or even has value as I haven't looked it up yet, but still a pretty cool find featuring one of the NFL's greatest running backs.
And we finish this up with one page of basketball that was randomly in there but it has Patrick Ewing, so that's a plus.
Overall, another solid MIL strike!
*sees wife coming out of the room so hurries up to finish up the post to get out of the dentists office*
Well, let me know your thoughts on this latest find from my mother-in-law.

Those Conlons are the real winners there!
ReplyDeleteI agree, I never saw any with that gold trim before!
Delete👍
DeleteAre they actually worthy?
DeleteGreat variety. Those kinds of finds are always fun to go through to see what you actually got. The dentist isn't my favorite either. Coffee is good this morning so enjoy the day all!
ReplyDeleteNo I am dreading the dentist next month for myself
DeletePretty good haul overall. ... I was just at the dentist Tuesday. I can't imagine writing a post there.
ReplyDeleteIt makes for a good distraction and not wondering what is going on while you are there.
DeleteA. The dentist office makes me anxious. Maybe the next time I go, I should bring my laptop to write a post and take my mind off of things.
ReplyDeleteB. I started writing my latest flea market post on Thursday at work in between parent/teacher conferences. Not really an ideal place either, but you gotta find free time when you can :D
C. Cool cards. Love the 1998 Topps Clemente card. The Slide Show inserts are cool too.
I can actually picture you doing that in-between conferences. But, just like with me, you gotta cram them in while you can
DeleteYour MIL must really like you. Thinking of you all the times.
ReplyDeleteYeah, she is proud of me. She is also 75 years old with a multitude of health problems so I also know she won't be around forever either so I try to help her out when i can as well.
