When I design my card set it's going to be all inserts. No base cards. Just five or six outstanding insert sets. But then again, what would those insert cards be inserted into? I'm getting headaches already.
I've been buy Series 2 entirely for the inserts and the chance for more 1000000 Car Giveaway contest cards. All my extras that I don't care about have been shipped to Thorzul and his Series 2 experiment.
Here are some inserts of note that I've pulled thus far:
This Tris Speaker is the first one of "these old players in contemporary designs" cards I've pulled. I like this one in particular but some of the other ones of just poor looking.
These are what the Turkey Red cards should be...no prospects should be allowed.
Dizzy Dean: The last National League pitcher to win 30 games.
Forget the 40-40 club, Rogers is the only member of the 40-400 club. Meaning he is the only player to ever hit more than 40 home runs and bat over .400 in a season.
Everywhere I turn it's been Johnny Podres, Johnny Podres. You'll see another one of this cards in a post I'm doing about the cards I recently picked up at a local card show.
Some of these lineage comparisons are a little weak but I like this one. Blue I get to add a new Aparicio card to the collection.
It's fun to run your finger over these cards and pretend that I'm a 90's DJ scratchin' a record.
This card should read Matt Kemp Peak Performance "Been Dating Rihanna For Over A Year."
