More collecting topics odds and ends


Hats-off - players wear caps on the field and batting helmets at the plate, so it maybe nice to see an occasional baseball card image of these players captured without headgear.

1996 Topps Stadium Club Cal Ripken #1 - Virtual Reality


2010 Upper Deck Ichiro Suzuki #SB-172 - Biography insert

Inking it up


1997 Pinnacle Denny’s Frank Thomas #4 of 29


1997 Upper Deck SP Albert Belle #15 of 25 - Inside Info insert; this card has a pull tab feature with player bio / stats; on the reverse image is of Belle signing something.

2001 Upper Deck Legends of New York Babe Ruth #128


2002 Upper Deck Vintage Ichiro Suzuki #DP1 - Day at the Park insert


2006 Upper Deck Prince Fielder #976


2004 Fleer Sweet Sigs Mike Piazza #8 of 25 BH - Ballpark Heroes insert


Players smiling - though different, I count both players with some sort of smile on their cards and players laughing on their cards as part of this mini-collection.

1993 Upper Deck Barry Bonds #HR6 - Home Run Heroes insert


2000 Upper Deck Yankees Legends Mickey Mantle #55
