I've Been Bipped!!!
I purchased a rather large lot of baseball cards at a garage sale recently. Most of the haul consisted of junk wax, which I was fully aware of when I made the purchase. I was very happy with the purchase overall. I ended up with about 25,000 to 30,000 cards, so I expected some duplication. However, I did not expect such an epic Bipping. Actually, Bip Roberts was not involved, but Randy St. Claire and Ken Howell certainly were involved. I found 65 cards of Mr. St. Claire from 1986 Topps in my boxes. But wait, there’s more. I also found 325 cards of Mr. Howell also from 1986 Topps. I am fairly confident that I am now the world’s largest holder of 1986 Topps Ken Howell cards. It goes without saying that these cards are all for trade.
Wow! I wonder how the seller managed to accumulate 325 cards of one guy. Was Howell anything of a prospect back in the day?
ReplyDeleteHe really wasn't a prospect. He was only a 3rd round pick. I hope somebody wasn't relying on these cards for their retirement.
