The Rosetta Stone. Housed in the British Museum in London.
It took scholars 23 years to decipher this so we all knew what parallels of Select, Prizm, and Mosaic we had.

Holy hell I can’t believe I found these MJ’s at an antique mall!
The major hurdle to completing the 96 Season’s Best has been acquired with the Sticky Fingers!
This is why I dig!
I Just looked this up. A box of Topps of 2021 definitive goes for over $2,000
I grabbed this definitive Frank Thomas on card auto/game used patch /50 for $30 at a small show
Convince me why I should buy modern wax instead of picking singles people are dumping to PC/Flip/Trade
I’ve been wanting this 1994 Emotion NTense for a long time.
Shot my shot on an eBay auction & won.
Thank you all who’ve supported my stack sales. Happy to served up some great cards for your PC’s.
Appreciate you all for helping get a PC addition for myself.
I’m going to be running an 90s NBA sale this Thursday, 9pm with a few others sprinkled in.
As always, if your ISO of any football & baseball til then, drop me a line.
Thank you to everyone who passed on the Michael Harris /373 RC I was selling!
I was able to trade it and $10 for this 1989 Griffey UD rookie that I’ve never owned at today’s show.
The twist, I found the Harris for $2 in a box at a show!
Question for all my collector friends with kids, would they want holograms in the hobby?
I know our answer would be “yes” and saying “no” you’d be lying! Lol.
Haven’t been buying many PC Cards, but I picked up this Griffey Swing Kings at the flea market at a steal.
2000 Ultra, 1:24 packs. 1:240 to pull any player.
All time worst card show dealer interaction.
Make a $5 offer for a card marked $7
The dealer begrudgingly accepts, then takes the card out of the toploader and hands me the card grunting “I’m keeping the holder”
Dealer also marks his cards “mint” when there’s clear damage!
Some people just suck! Found @ an antique store. The only 2 cards in the entire place.
I should got back with stacks of these and ask if the dealer would buy them for $20 each. Helluva deal for em on the profit margin.
Damn, this is completely unfair 🥴
If I'm
@beckettcollect
, I just close shop or pray that
@Fanatics

@CGCCards

@PSAcard
.
I may submit a few items for decorative
One of the more unique pickups from Saturday.
2018 Topps X Bryce Harper Home Run Derby base.
This is definitely a few steps above a white napkin swatch.
Toploader binder review
Brand: Kuson
Holds: 216 3”x4” toploaders in 12 pages
Outer covering: synthetic material. Sufficient, but will show the nicks.
Cover: The cover is sufficient. Could be more rigid/thick
Zipper: works well and does not feel like a fail point.
I just hit a big boy for my 90s insert PC!!!
Craig Biggio 1997 Pinnacle Inside Diamond edition!
These are 1:63 cans. 1:9450 to pull any particular player. I’ll take a HOFer any day of the week!
Some flea market MJ finds.
The Power Palette and Electric Diamond are PC, the hardwood leader & sharpshooter will be in my May stack sale.
Now I just need to upgrade the Power Palette to the Sky View!
MJ card Share and one that I think every MJ collector should have.
1995 Hoops Number Crunchers.
Great photos and fun 90s design from a easy to pull insert set.
Tonight’s “They Just Don’t Make Them Like They Used To” 90s cards is
1995 Embossed
These always had a great texture and made the player pop off the card nicely. The basketball texture was def cool!
Share a fun card that’s embossed or has any type non flat stock!
Stupid rare box find from this weekend that surprised me:
2000 Skybox Dominion Double Play Warp Tek
1:900 packs/1:25 boxes (1:9,000/250 boxes any card)
I bought another toploader binder, but this one is smaller. Holds 96 cards. 12 pages of 8 cards back n front.
This is going to be my travel sell/trade binder going forward. This will be perfect for trade night and shows.
Brand: Kuson Diamond. Same as my big one!

2000 finest gold refractor, back doored version. It’s missing the deckling.
This is a psa 9 & one you still don’t see often. Incredible card in hand.
Tonights “They Just Don’t Make Them Like They Used To” 90s cards
Holograms! Holograms and stickers were just about fun, but the tech behind the holos just made designs pop!
Share your favorite 90s holograms!
I have been very fortunate, lucky, and blessed this year with my card picking.
This card, sitting sleeved in a box, may take the cake as my top find this year.
Chipper Jones 1999 UD Ionix HoloGRFX
1 in 1,500 packs! Holy snikes!!!!
Picked up a sweet trio of Frank Thomas RC’s for the PC today! Amazed that at 39 I finally just got his Leaf RC! So much $ back then!
Also have some new cards for “They Just Don’t Make Them Like They Used To” 90s posts.
Also have some new killers that will be available for S/T
Lunch break treat! My first slab submission came back!
I can live with this grade from SGC. It looks sweet in the black tux. Think the cut on the bottom made the stock look off & caused the lower grade.

Going to a card show without picking up refractors is probably wasted time. So picked these out of a box:
2001 Chrome Retro-fractor Greg Maddux
2000 TSC Chrome Griffey
