Fairfield 250 card cube recap Part 1

When I can't get to a card shop and have no other means to secure random cards to go through, I grab one of these $10 cubes - I figure I might have fun sifting through the junk wax cards to find at least a few cards for my mini-collections.

1992 Wild Card Barry Sanders #P7 - promo; it's a football card lurking in a baseball repack, but this might have actually been a 'hot card' when it first came out since collectors were crazy for promos back in the early 1990's.

1994 Score Brian McCrae #19 - while the background is blurred out, it looks like Hall of Famer George Brett lurks on the on-deck circle.
1987 Donruss Floyd Youmans #257
1990 Fleer Greg Hibbard #534
1987 Donruss Dale Murphy #3
1993 Score Charlie Hough #223 - as long as he is still kicking, having his cards are probably handy since he lives in So. Cal and occasionally helps out with the Los Angeles Dodgers California League team.

1986 Topps Quaker Chewy Granola Bars Fernando Valenzuela #17 - I did a random search for his cards several days ago and it's a nice coincidence I get one of his cards that I'd probably put on my collecting topics wantlist, since I assume he is doing something 'hittery,' wearing a batting helmet.

2000 Upper Deck Dean Palmer #385 - it's not the greatest action shot, but I like how Palmer is captured giving the full effort in throwing the ball.
