This 1987 Topps Certified Rosenort Auto was included, how creative is that? Great stuff! I recently completed my first trade with Rosenort of Condition Sensitive.

Last week kinda sucked, let's make this a better one. Here's a 1992 Topps Braves team set. I was missing Otis Nixon but I scrounged it from my 2nd 1992 set and put this one to bed. Thankfully, there were no Traded cards for the Braves in '92 or this would be incomplete like a half dozen other of my team sets from 20-30 years ago. Enjoy.

In others, not so well. My desire to complete a 1953 Topps set in PSA 6 grade is one of those areas that's been a bit neglected. Show More Summary

I'm still on a 2013 Topps Series I kick and bought another blaster [recap to come at some point] - I pulled an otherwise unremarkable common card of J.J. Putz and I found it interesting Topps noted Putz' notable trading card pull from last season featuring pop star Justin Bieber. Show More Summary
