Smell my Fingers

It's been a good week.  I've gotten quite a few new Rollie for the Awesomest Rollie Fingers Collection ever.

The first is the 2004 Fleer Inscribed Names of the Game Jersey of the Rollster.   I've also seen numbered versions of this card without the jersey and I'm not sure but there might also be autos of this card.


Next is this 1983 Permagraphics Superstar.  If you've never seen one of these there like a credit card and even have a signature stripe on the back and there made of plastic.


Another 2010 Tribute jersey card with a nice stripe on it.  This one is #d 18/50.

And last but not least...

2004 UD Etchings Etched in Time #d to 375 Rollie auto.
This card is beautiful.  Lots of foil and a great auto.
The best part about this card is that I only paid $2.75 plus shipping.  A super deal in my opinion.
I'm excited there are some nice Sterling cards out there right now.

The latest awesome Rollie addition.

I've know that these were out there.  I've been waiting to try and get one.  But I haven't seen a single one listed for auction or buy it now since these cards came out last year.  And then last week.  The skys opened up and I saw a ray of sunshine beam down and saw this listed.  Now you say oh it's just a Rollie Fingers Goodwin Champions Black mini. 

No it's better it's the black foil Magician Back!! #d 3/8 one of the rarest cards in the set. 

Here's the back.  Pretty sweet.  This is one of my Top 10 wanted Rollie cards.  I had decided after complete my Rollie Rainbow for Topps Tribute last year that I wanted to try and pick up some of the rarest cards for Rollie. The best part this card only cost about 10 bucks plus shipping.  A pittance compared to the relative scarcity of it.  I have seen very few Magician cards come up on eBay let alone of someone I wanted.

I still have yet to post the rainbow from the 2009 Tribute set.  I apologize those cards are spread out and packed away right now but soon I should have some room to spread out.  I think I actually posted all the individual cards as I collected them.

Next up I'd love to get my hands on a couple of printing plate from this set but I haven't seen any of those up at all either.  If anyone has a Rollie printing plate they'd like to trade for I'm open.

some new rollies


I picked these up a while ago but have been busy with other junk.




Here we have a Canadian Club Auto card.  The auction stated that these were actually suppose to be put on bottles as an insentive to buy the bottle but never released.  What ever, it was cheap and cool looking.  There should be more liquor cards.
Next a Rollie 2008 Goudey Mini  Green Back #d to 88.
And a 1984 Diamond Kinds Autographed card.  All of these were super cheap.  That's why I love collecting Rollie Fingers.

Some recent editions.





It's been awhile since I posted some Rollie Stuff.  I have been accumulating a pretty good stack but have just been too lazy and busy to scan them all in.  But I just bought a new scanner so I figured what a great way to test it out.  This is by no means everything and I wanted to leave a few for future posts but here is the newest editions to the Most Awesomest Rollie Fingers Collection.





It's 2010 commerative 4th of July Manupatch #d to 99. I don't like the picture here it makes Rollie look like he's got a unibrow.  I'm still looking for a cheap Milwaukee patch card.


Next we have my 2nd 2010 Rollie from Tribute.  He doesn't have a base card this year and niether does Yount but I did finish my Rollie Rainbow from 2009 Tribute.  I just have to find them all to post.

Jersey card above one color numbered to 75


I picked up a couple of 2008 Legendary Cuts Legendary Memorabilia for cheap.  A blue and Brown both #d to 75.



One of my nicer pick ups.  This card looks fake for some reason but who would fake a Rollie card?  Nice patch and numbered to 10!! Again I got this card for under 10 bucks so if it is fake who cares?



A couple UD Sweet Spot Classics.  2003

and 2007.


A nice UD 2003 Authentics Threads of Time #d to 350.  I love the fabric texture in this card and it's a nice layout.


 2003 SSC Patch #'d to 300.


And lastly, at least for this post a 2005 Topps Prestine Title Threads Relic.

Super Sorry

Well it's my fault I've fallen behind with this blog.  I have been accumulting cheap Rollie autos, patchs and I even completed my 2009 Tribute Rainbow, but did I post any of that?  Did I mention the the ole Rolster is making an apperance at the National?   Nope none of it.   But i'll be back in a few weeks from my next field assignment and then the gloves are off.

Some awesome new additions and one card closer to my Tribute Rollie Rainbow.

I recently got a few new 1 of 1's of the old Rollster. The first one is a 2008 SP Legendary Cuts  Memorable Moments.


And my new Tribute is a printing plate.

This is the Yellow Printing plate. 
I'm still missing the gold card for my base rainbow and I do believe I'm missing only one printing plate.  Not to shabby and both of these cards were very reasonably priced.

2009 Topps Tribute base

Sorry it's been so long since I had something to post.  I'm one card closer to finishing my rainbow of good ole' Rollie in 2009 Tribute.  Right now the last card I need is the gold.  I'm still looking. 
I got this one in a lot with Sal Bando.  An A's twofer if you will.  I should be fully moved in to my new place at the end of the month so hopefully I'll have more to say about Rollie but you can always follow my rants over at Collector's Crack.
