Score One For the Little Guy

There's already a whole blog dedicated to the 1988 Score Rookies and Traded Set if this post whets your appetite, I recommend checking out that blog and taking a look at all the treasures there!





I picked this set up at a card show in the Twin Cities that I normally don't go to - harder for me to get there and the main focus is the autographs, which is not really my thing.


Here are some of my favorites from the set:
 Quisenberry as a Cardinal? Ok Then...
 The two biggest Rookies in the set - now Hall of Famers:

 A couple more notable rookies:

Graig as an Expo --- neat. Herm is great at WINNING.

  1. The Nettles is one of my favorites from this set. And I need to track down a copy of that Grace RC because I somehow don't already own a copy.

    1. Nettles as an Expo was one of the cards I was looking forward to having when I bought this set, based solely on see the card on your blog!

    2. JC should have plenty of that Grace. If not let me know, see if I can't dig one one out of those boxes (now full of dupes/unwanted cards) or at least 6 or 7 of them anyways.

  2. I just picked up a sweet card for you my friend! If my home computer ever decides to work I'll print and label and get it to you.

  3. That Winningham card is pretty neat. I didn't know there was an '88 Traded Set. Thanks for introducing me to it!

    1. It's a little funky - it has retained its value more than most of the traded/update sets because it is supposedly a more rare set.
      All the cards have the same orange border, which gets a little boring compared to the regular set.
      The thing that sets it apart is that the photography is actually really good for a traded set- pretty much all action shots, not very much airbrushing that I noticed.
