I have a tough time with my McGwire collection. I have about 700 unique McGwires. That's a drop in the bucket, but when I go to shows, nobody has any for cheap. When I trade, nobody seems to have McGwires I need, especially inserts. There are probably 1000 different McGwire inserts from 1999 alone. So why are they (semi) tough for me to find? I don't know.
But...
I recently made a trade with the Great Fuji! He wanted a Steve Garvey Padres jersey card, and surprise! On his trade bait page were McGwires! Ones I actually need! Here they are:
This is card 220 in 1999 Topps. There are 70 different versions of this card, each with the number of one of McGwires home runs. I have a whopping 3 of them...
My first Sport Kings card of any kind.
And this is one of 15 'ReMarkable' cards. It's an insert set. This is #10 out of the 15 for me.
Thanks a ton Fuji!! And if anyone has tough to find McGwires, let me know!
Hello! Are you still collecting? I might have some cards from your Steroid Era project. I'm also on the lookout for Diamond Kings. I have a wantlist up at my blog https://addictionastherapy.wordpress.com/give-me-a-fix-wantlists/diamond-kings/
