The Wizard of Museum Collection

I have been putting up a few Topps Museum cards the past few days, but have mainly focused on the jumbo relics.  I did manage to land a nice Wil Myers autograph, but still had my eye on a couple of other autographs floating around in trade rooms, Twitter, and Ebay.  My favorite Cardinals autograph target was an obvious choice.  Hall of Fame shortstop Ozzie Smith is featured on an awesome card in this year's Topps Museum set.


This is a great looking card and features a nice signature from Ozzie Smith.  The bottom of the autograph on the zz is slightly cut off which netted me a nice discount from the person who was selling this card.  Add in two bat pieces and a print run of only 50 and you've got a winning card.

  1. Ozzie always seems to slip through the cracks when I write about my favorite players. I'm always focusing on Gwynn and Rickey, but the truth is... Ozzie was right up there. I really need to pick up more of his stuff.

  2. Ur right about the signature being a slight letdown, but I'd still love that card in my collection any day.

I got my first job was pushing in carts and bagging groceries at the Dierbergs in Manchester, Missouri during my junior year of high school....
