Trades!

 Happy to have another couple small trades to share today, and the first is with tullyelly, which marks our fifth trade together.


2002 Topps was an ugly looking set with that border colour. Match it with the Jays uniforms and logos being ones I really didn't like, and these cards make me sad. Still need to collect them, but....yeesh. Much prefer the Romero designed 2012 Opening Day.

As for Tommy - in thinking I had the 1990-91 Upper Deck hockey set done, found out going through, I was wrong so he's one of a few cards I somehow marked off as collected, but didn't have. My best guess is either a wrong ticking in TCDB, or I sorted them into the wrong pile when putting things away and ended up with them gone for some reason. Either way, a reminder I am just human.

We end that trade with Panini wrestling cards, and at least the red Blue parallels from 2022 Panini Select give those cards some nice colour and pop to the design instead of the straight silver look. We then end with a nice looking Ziggler.

A great little trade, and one of two to share today as the other is an even smaller trade, but brought me a couple Jays from Kleskomaniac. Funny enough, it was the fifth trade I had done with him as well.

You can see by the cards why I would do this PWE trade for just a couple cards. The 2021 Bowman Sapphire Edition card looks fantastic in hand with the blue crackling design effect - scanned pretty nice too.

As for Alford, I remain a sucker for a serial numbered card, and it's the only serial number card from the "base" set of 2017 Panini Chronicles, so now I just need a couple more base cards for my Jays set there.

Thank you both for the trades, always appreciated!
