New/Big Poison and a Reminder

I got sidetracked and lost track of time with the Pens game followed by a late 9pm WVU start. Solid sports night!

A few weeks back I made a fairly significant purchase of National Treasures cards. The lot was around 20 cards, but only three were for me.  This one was by far my favorite of the keepers

2016 Paul Waner National Treasures /25

Panini has made a lot of nice sets centered around old timers. Everyone loved the Cooperstown set and I was big fan of Classics.  National Treasures is more of a hit based set, but once again the checklist featured a bunch of pre war stars.

When it comes to the Waner brothers it is much easier to find good deals with Lloyd.  With that being said if you are patient deals exist for Big Poison as well. Lately Panini has produced a good bit of relics of both Waners so prices are reasonable.

In case you missed I'm holding a contest for my blogging birthday.  You can join here.

Thanks for reading!

    It's crazy to think that this piece of bat could have been used during Waner's MVP season 90 years ago. Beautiful card!

    What I really like about this card is that despite "no logo," you don't even notice. Well done, Panini!

      Old timers and catchers have the best Panini cards.
