Tiki Barber PC Adds

I have been able to add quite a few Tiki’s the past few months. First off are the 2022 Mosaic Overdrive. Below are 6 of the 7 versions (only missing the #1/1): Base, Silver, Blue #/99, Purple #/49, White #/25, and Gold #/10. Next is the 2022 Panini Classics. I was able to add four

Tiki Add: 2005 Topps Chrome Gridiron Badges Relic #/100

I don’t recall seeing this card pop up too often, so when I saw it on eBay a few weeks ago I knew I had to get it. I probably over paid a little, but the cards surface looked good so I didn’t mind paying extra for it. Now I am one card closer to

Topps Chrome: Tiki Through Out The Years

A few post ago, I wrote about Bowman Chrome. Today I bring you Topps Chrome. Tiki was in the Topps Chrome product from 1998 to 2006. It is interesting to see it’s evolution below as Chrome went from two versions (Base and Refractor) to six. That seems like nothing compared to the 30 versions Panini

Topps Bowman Chrome Adds – Tiki Barber

During COMC’s Black Friday, I picked up some of Tiki Barber’s Topps Bowman Chrome cards that I need to complete his Topps Bowman Chrome run. Unlike Panini’s football cards today, there is only a few parallel of each cards as to opposed the the 20-30 that you see today. While I may not have the

Tiki Barber 2003 Topps Chrome Rainbow

With there being not too much new Tiki stuff available (the 2022 Select is a college uniform product which I generally don’t collect) I have been trying to go back and fill some of my Topps Chrome, Bowman Chrome and Finest wants. My newest addition is the 2003 Topps Chrome GOLD Xfractor #/101. While it

New Giants Addition – Rookies and A Simms Autograph

It has been a while since I posted some of my new Giants cards. 1st we will start with some Azeez Ojulari Obsidian rookies. I choose Obsidian because it is one of the better looking cards on the market, even though the edges seem subject to chipping. Much better then Prizm, which every card seems

Giants Chrome “Wind” Rookie: Derrick Ward

When I was going through my “Team” box to see if there were any cards I have forgotten about, I came across this beauty in the Jets section: 2004 Bowman Chrome Red #/210 rookie. This one is supposed to be an uncirculated card, but it doesn’t have the case that those came in. And I

My Fantasy Football Team in Sport Card Form

With the start of the NFL season next week, I had my fantasy football draft a few days ago. Below are my draft picks whom I expect to be in my starting line up each week, in Rookie Card form (from my collection). Let me know what you think. Also what rookie cards do you

Finally, Some Local Show Pickups

Over this past weekend, there was a small show (maybe 25 tables) a few towns over that I was able to check out. It is a far cry from the 300 table show at the County Center, but it was still a chance to look through some tables and maybe pick up a few items.

2009 Topps Chrome Rookies – Hakeem Nicks

Today’s post is the reminder of the Topps Chrome rookies that I have in the collection. The include the base autograph, base, the copper refractor #/649 and the blue refractor. Besides the #1/1, I am missing the red refractor #/25, the refractor, and the Xfractor rookies. I may have to start looking for those. 2009

2009 Topps Chrome Patch Autograph #/25 – Hakeem Nicks

Keeping with the Hakeem Nicks Collection, today’s post is the patch rookie autograph #/25. Topps Chrome is still tops in my book! This is autograph #2 in the Hakeem Nicks collection.

Hakeem Nicks Collection: 2009 Topps Crome Black Refractor Autograph #/25

When Tiki Barber retired in 2007, I started looking for a new Giants player to collect. I was looking for a rookie as I was hoping I would be able to watch them play for the next 10 years while collecting their cards. With Tiki retired, I know there would be a reduction in his

2005 Topps Finest Rainbow – Tiki Barber

As part of my Tiki Barber collection, I don’t actively collect base cards or relic cards. My main focus is autographs. But after a while, when there were no autographs to chase I started to look to see what direction I can expand the collection. Since my favorite modern day cards were Topps Chrome, I

1993 Wild Card Super Chrome Rookies – Michael Strahan

For today’s post, I decided not to do a Tiki card, but instead his Hall of Fame teammate Michael Strahan. The below cards is from a product called Wild Card, AAA Sports Inc. This is the only rookie year card that I have a Strahan. The chrome finish and the etched feel of the card

Which TE Will Have The Biggest Impact?

One of my favorite products of all time is Topps Chrome Football. Back when retail was available to purchase, I would buy several blaster boxes and rack packs (with the orange chrome) from Target each year, along with several hobby boxes (they would run about $80 a box). It was great because you would end

Hakeem Nicks – Topps Finest Rookie Jersey Autograph Gold Refractor

In keeping with the Super Bowl theme this weekend, I am highlighting on of my favorite Giants receivers of all time – Hakeem Nicks. During 2011, Nicks set several Giants postseason records with 28 catches, 444 yards and 4 TDs. Even though he didn’t have a TD in the Super Bowl, he did have 10

NFC Championship Weekend: Buccaneers vs. Packers, Mike Evans vs. Davante Adams

Back in 2014, you could buy a box of Topps Chrome Football for about $80. So each year I would usually buy 3 boxes, which would lead to me putting together a master set (less the auto). 2 of the top wide receiver rookies that year were Mike Evan and Davante Adams. Today, one of
