Two more Trades

I picked up a pair of Cardinals and Rays cards this week in two separate trades that I was pretty excited about completing.  The first trade I made with Joshy on Facebook.  I've actually made several trades with him over the past month since I started my blog.  He's got his own trade group on Facebook, with some real solid traders, and he's always in the market for Red Sox cards.  You can find him in some other trade groups too, but he posts heavily in his own group and always has something for everyone.  This week I picked up three cards from him: a 2011 Triple Threads David Price Jersey, a 2011 Topps Allen & Ginter Joe Maddon Jersey, and a 2005 Donruss Diamond Kings Lou Brock Bat card.

Last card of the night was a cheap trade from a dealer in Iowa, but I was extremely happy about finding a copy of this 2009 Topps Ticket To Stardom Kyle Lohse Ticket Stub.  This set was a little bit different when it was released a few years back, but I thought it was a cool concept.  The set focused on ticket stubs and featured player autographs and relics attached to a ticket stub of a game where the player had starred.  Some of the cards only featured a ticket stub.  Lohse has no relics cards and no certified autographs, but was a key part of last year's Cardinals championship team.  I guess this card is as close to a certified anything of Lohse that I am going to find.
