I was going through some of my baseball cards the other day and I thought I'd share some of my favorites. I specialize in "unique" cards that are extremely rare (some have never been seen before), or else simply cool.
Check 'em out after the break....
This first card is even rarer than the T206 Honus Wagner card. This is the valuable T206a Arte Moreno limited edition non-tobacco card:
Next is one of my favorites. Few people know about the nutty afro craze that spread through Japan a few years ago. It was so big even Hideki Matsui got caught up in it:
My collection wouldn't be complete unless I had the elusive Mike Napoli error card. The rumor was, after Napoli's mother saw this card (she's a very conservative and chaste woman), Topps had to stop production and re-call those cards that made it to the public:
I always think it's a treat when I can share two of my passions at once. With this Erick Aybar card fans are able to relive the exciting stories of Star Wars, while also marveling at the beauty of baseball:
This one's just friggin' ugly:

That T206a looks to be extremely valuable, as it's a misprint.
It shows “MORENO, LOS ANGELES”, yet Arte is in a Pittsburgh uniform. This should increase it’s value.

It's nice that they made Lackey's mouth a little smaller for the card
Otherwise it would be the size of a legal pad

Glenn Hubnuts had a really big beard and a really small glove.
Look it up. He was awesome on the turn.

Outstanding!
I thought the Benedict one made him look a bit like Alan on Two and a Half Men…and that is an improvement.!
GAWD…a Sux friend of mine actually thanked me for Lackey yesterday! I think I threw up in my mouth a bit…
