The Quest

The Baltimore Orioles have been in town since '54 and have had over 900 men don their uniform. My goal is to obtain a signed card of each player. If you have something I need, or see something you want, don't be shy, we can make a deal.

A Trade Unfolding...

...just like a Napkin.

The famous Napkin posted a list of 1996 SPx players he needed and that sparked a little trade. poured through his impressive wantlists and came up with a generous amount of set needs for him. I knew buying a case of 1999 SPx would pay off eventually.

He stepped up and sent me a great deal of Orioles vintage and an auto.
1960 Topps Gordon Jones #98

1960 Topps Barry Shetrone #348

1960 Topps Billy Klaus #406


Not only did I get some sweet vintage, I got some graded 1955 Topps cards. The first 55's or graded cards to the vintage collection. Now I just need to figure out how to store them.

1955 Topps Chuck Diering #105

1955 Topps Harry Breechen #113

1955 Topps Joe Coleman #162


Thanks again for a great trade, I truly appreciate your patience and your awesome vintage.
