I don't usually chase cards like this

The recent bug of scanning cards and putting them on the new Jays hits page got me looking on eBay last week, just to see if there was anything worth picking up.

I very rarely buy cards like the one below.  Quad relic cards are nice, but often they'll have players/teams on them that I'm not interested in owning.

Then I found this card.


Topps Museum Collection quad relic.  All Blue Jays.   What surprised me was the price.

$9.99 BIN or Best offer.   Wow!  (at least wow for me...)

I offered $7.50 (shipping brought the total to $10).   It was instantly accepted.  Three mail days later I have it in my grubby hands.

#'d 14/75, it has 2 pieces of bat, and the Morrow is a patch piece.  It's thick as a brick as well.

Hey, at least 2 of these guys will still be with the Jays next year.   At least I hope they will be.

thanks for reading, Robert

  1. I like that card. You've got a nice variety of relics in it, too, as opposed to a bunch of plain grey swatches. I'd buy that card all day long at that price, although I'd want a Dickey swatch in there somewhere.

  3. I have to agree with you those quad player relics with players from multiple teams on it seems silly, but put together a quad card with 4 members from the same team and you have a team collectors gold. That Morrow patch is sweet and for a sweet price too. Nice addition
