Inventory complete

About a month-and-a-half ago, I received a packed medium flat-rate box from Chris of The Collector as one of the prizes for commenting on his sports cities tour posts.

I posted after a quick look through the goodies just because I knew if I waited until I had everything inventoried, Chris might have been wondering if the box ever got to me. Since it's arrival, I've been sorting and totaling and figuring out just exactly what I needed out of the big ol' box.

After filtering out the dupes, I've got the whole box broken down and I'm going to list it all here.

There is actually not all that much that I want from this box, so if anyone is collecting certain sets, let me know and I can send you the cards (I feel silly writing this since it's been a month since I've sent anybody any cards, but I assure you I'll get to all the outgoing packages eventually). Those cards/sets that I'd like to keep, I'll note in the list in big red letters.

OK, get ready:

I still haven't figured out whether this large total of '91 Score, coupled with the bunch I have already, will send me over the edge to finish off this set. There are many levels to cataloging these cards. This will be one of the most interesting ones for me.

Someone, please, take these off my hands. There is nothing more grueling than cataloging a set that I despise.

I want to collect this set. The problem is the cards are notorious for sticking together and chipping. That's a double-whammy. Some sure look nice though.

I didn't think anybody bought this set. It's so weird to see so many of them in one place. (This is one of the few decent cards in the set).

Various minor league cards - 5 (will keep the card at the top of the post. I love 1970s/80s minor league cards)

Now you can see why it took me so long to get back to that flat-rate box. By my count, that's more than 1,700 cards that are new to my collection.

Apart from that box, I also received a second prize from Chris, a random assortment of Dodger cards. You have to get up pretty early to find a Dodger card I need, but these three rang a bell:

The Kosco will go toward the 1969 Topps set, if I ever decide to attempt that.

These two were also needs. They are from that bizarre Archives set that came out at Christmas a couple of years ago.

The ones with the bizarre 1975 Topps backs.

Chris even sent me one of the unchosen prizes, too: the three 2017 Heritage panel cards. He thought I might like one in particular.

I do.

I like it so much I displayed it the proper way.

So, I know that's more inventory information than you need to know, but honestly this post was more about me than you. I need to get a handle on all these cards I have lately and I just can't collect everything. Fortunately, I do have trading partners to distribute some of these.

I promise I'll get to that at some point before Christmas.
