Molitor from COMC

I've been able to spend a bit more money lately on cards as my business/work life has improved tremendously over the past several years. More clients for me means more work billed at an hourly rate which means more money coming in. Add in having other people working on my cases and client matters, and you have a recipe for success in the legal industry. 

So, I've taken the opportunity to start loading up on my big collections from COMC. Sportlots is excellent for getting commons at a good price. Card Barrel can be good as well. eBay is better for those special, higher end purchases. COMC, though, is probably best when used for relatively commonplace cards of stars or some of the more numerous parallels. It's easier to find them on COMC, and the combined shipping for all the cards at like $6--even for the "slow boat to nowhere" shipping speed--is tough to beat.

I recently added about 125 Paul Molitor cards that I did not have to my collection off COMC.Here are a few favorites.

As best I recall, I don't think I ever saw the hanger-pack stickers with panels of five stickers all together as one where I lived, and I may not have ever seen them in the flesh before about 2 months ago. I only got those little paper packs to rip open. Never the fancy boxes. So, when I saw this one available, I had to grab it. Where else do you get reminded of such awesome mid-1980s players as Jerry Remy (RIP), Steve Rogers (alive and hopefully well), Johnnie LeMaster (also still with us), and Ron Oester (among the living) alongside Hall of Famer Paul Molitor?

This great disc came from 1988, obviously, and from some kid getting a haircut at franchise haircuttery Fantastic Sam's. I was sort of surprised to learn that Fantastic Sam's is still very much in business as a franchised entity, but that's probably because the franchised haircuttery of choice in my part of Atlanta is Great Clips. 

And finally, this is the Jiffy Pop Square Proof. Back in the 1980s, if you had Jiffy Pop, you were fancy. Agricultural megacompany ConAgra still packages and sells Jiffy Pop Popcorn for anyone interested in such things. Microwave popcorn defintely is far easier to make. 

Thanks for stopping by. I'll have some eBay purchases posting soon. Maybe I'll even update my player collections....though that might take a while since I haven't done it since 2018.
