Mail Day: New Carl Yastrzemski PC Item!
As you are aware, I'm a huge fan of the Boston Red Sox and collect a few of the players from their history. One player that I've built a small collection of is Carl Yastrzemski, and I was able to add a new item to my Yaz Personal Collection. Although I missed out on another Yaz item from this seller, I was able to pick up a BGS 9.5 2007 UD Masterpieces card of Yastrzemski at a low cost. Upon receipt, I noticed that Beckett slabbed the card upside down (if you look at the back of the card) and you can see in the picture below that it is slabbed opposite of the Red Sox World Series card I own from the same set.
No matter, this set by Upper Deck had some amazing pictures captured on the cards and they actually make for pretty decent TTM material. I think I have a Y.A. Title TTM autograph from this set and I bought a huge lot of the Red Sox World Series cards to use for TTM and in-person autographs for players from that year's team.
I have no mail day items pending, so my next post will likely be the box break and review of 2013 Topps Baseball Series 1. I have a jumbo box on order at my local card shop, so expect to see the box break and review sometime later this week.
Thanks for the comment! Three good sites to use for purchasing individual cards are: eBay, Beckett Marketplace and Check Out My Cards. Good luck building a Yaz collection!
