One of the first insert sets I worked on was the Triumvirate cards. This year's version featured three star players from one team that fit together like a puzzle. Long ago I picked up the first piece of the Cardinals set with this Yadier Molina in a trade with another collector. Small piece in a bigger trade.
Which meant that I was two pieces short. I picked up the two other pieces from COMC, but did not really feel like posting it after the whole Jason Hayward thing last month. Well, I am over Jason Hayward (have fun in Chicago) and I went ahead and scanned the card along with the Adam Wainwright. Here's look at the Hayward and Wainwright by themselves....
and the best part of picking up the cards in this set is to put them all together and put them under the scanner. The end result always looks nice, even when some Cubs player gets in the way....
*especially* when some Cubs player gets in the way.
ReplyDeleteJust kidding, here's to an epic division battle over the next few years!
add in the Pirates, who have a lot of young talent too, and I think the Central is going to be a great division race for the foreseeable future.

ReplyDeleteIt's still a beautiful card Madding even if Heyward is now a Cubbie.
