In this day and age of relic and game-used cards it's always refreshing to run across something that falls outside of the average jersey and bat cards. This was the case a few weeks ago when I some how I stumbled across a 2001 Topps Stadium Club Play at the Plate game-used dirt card. Yup, you read that right. Game-used dirt...embedded in a card! Awesome! After doing a little research I discovered that the set wasn't too large and offered up some good names so I decided I wouldn't mind chasing this set. I think I got started off on the right foot with the purchase of this card for my first in the set:
I know that Chipper is in the set, but I've yet to find the card for sale. I also saw that McGwire's card was commanding more on eBay than I want to pay so I'm hoping this is where you, the reader will come into play. If you have any of these game-used dirt cards let me know as I'm excited about completing this set!
You mean you couldn't find any "dirt cheap" on ebay?
ReplyDeleteMaybe a few...you'll see in the coming days
ReplyDeleteI've seen those before. I need to collect those for the blog. If you end up with any dupes let me know!
ReplyDeleteI have to find one of those for my "odd" relic collection. I never saw one before, a great find!
ReplyDeleteWow. Awesome. I have never seen one of those. Maybe there is some spit dna in there.
