After the game ended I decided to check in at my local card shop Big D's Cards in Raleigh. It has been awhile since I had been into the store, but Jimmy, the owner of the store, has been busy tracking down cards for my collection. I had a pretty good stack set aside over the past month or so. The stack was big enough that I decided to break it into two posts. Tonight, the Rays. Tomorrow bingo.
I have been looking for a copy of this card for awhile, but have had a bit of a hard time tracking this down from half a world away. This card comes from a Topps Supreme which was a release slated for Asian markets only in 2013. It is coming to the states this year. Each Supreme box came with one pack with two autographs in each pack. There are some good names in the set, but the boxes sell for around $75-$80 US dollars. While I would love to pull a pack fresh Chris Archer card, I would not like to spend $75 for a pack fresh Chris Archer card. Cards have a cool design and a nice look. Happy that I finally ran into one of these for a good price and in the United States.
Next up is a Desomnd Jennings Allen & Ginter card from last year. I believe this completes my set of Rays autographs and relics from last years set. Next.....
This is actually an Astros card, but Zobrist is now a Ray. I count it as Rays card. I already have a copy of this card, which comes from the 2004 SP Prospects set. However, it was sold to me as part of a larger lot of Zobrist cards. I also got these:
More Astros, but another rookie. This is a really cool set if you have never checked it out. Some really cool rookies. On to some more, non-Rays Zobrist autographs.......
A Topps Tribute World Baseball Classic Autograph of Zobrist out of 50.......
another from the same set out of 35.......
and the 1/1 for good measure.
