I've been talking with a person on Twitter for a while now who goes by the handle Garth Iorgy. Obviously, a play on the Jays' infielder from the 80s.
From time to time he puts together "packs" of cards and sells them.. I expressed interest and the last time he did it he decided to give a few out free.. He sent me one.
I received it today..
So a Reds Heritage card, a Line Drive Clippers Manager card.. (I kind of like the old logo from that period)
A Steve Carlton Phillies card, logoless obviously.. And a Dave Lopes 1980 OPC.
To show how far he's fallen since he was the face of the Rays... I forgot Evan Longoria was still playing.. Steve Carter and Chris Gomez round out the hitters and Terry Leach is the last one here.. I didn't know Leach pitched for the Sox.. I only really remember him as a Met or a Twin..
And finally... We have three cards I need.. John Wetteland and Larry Walker add to my Expos Project and Mike Soroka adds to my Canadians collection. The Dave Winfield is a 1985 OPC sticker.
So if you happen to see anything you want, let me know..
Nice of that guy to send you a free one, and at least you got a few that were needed. Are you still trying to amass as many Expos as possible?
ReplyDeleteOh, and if you're not keeping it, and it hasn't already been claimed, I'd be very interested in the Winfield sticker.
Indeed I am.. And it's yours.. If you don't mind, I'll hold it to see if there's more I can send you rather than the one thing..
