Not surprising that in the pack there were a few cards too rough to keep, but I will use them as packing material if nothing else (or send them somewhere they will be kept - Billy, I am looking at you...). 16 such cards which I won't even dignify with a scan. There were still about 120 worthwhile cards, so worth the $3 all in.
The dupes, which I won't bother with either here, are mostly 2011-12 Victory cards I didn't need, and since there are some in the keepers, it will give you a taste for the set anyway if you haven't seen them before.
So what exactly did I get to keep?

A few early 90s cards still in the bunch, but not many...

Here we get into some 2008-09 O Pee Chee, and happily a Robitaille.

Some 2008-09 Victory...

More Victory...

And even some more. So I was able to get at least these 6 more base cards for the Victory set. Best would be the Kari card for sure.
Able to pick up one error card (even if it is a simple printing error regarding the number on the back)...

We then get a fair number of inserts/parallels:

Most are again, in the 2011-12 Victory set. MVP that year was an insert set for Victory.
Last but not least, would be the Leafs...

Again, a number from 2011-12 Victory, so no complaints. Really like the black MVP card set up compared to the white/gold border type. Not a parallel, but a subset within the insert set of MVP...yeah....never had to describe a card that way in the 80s.
Definitely well worth the three bucks though.
I'm always willing to take rejects 😁 you should see some of the damaged cards that are part of my collection! And someday I plan to write up a post about them.
ReplyDeleteI have a few cards to send out your way, and will probably use those cards as packing material (or similar), and if you choose to keep them.... :)
