As the blog enters its 17th month, I still have a nice handful of loyal readers that have been with me and ’30-YOC’ since the start.
Reader Gerad is among them. Gerad and I have shared several emails over the last year and he is a frequent commenter on the site.
And now he is a contributor as well. He sent me my most coveted Greg Maddux card of my collection…
… the 1987 Topps Traded rookie card!!!
I have wanted to add this card to my Maddux collection for quite some time. And each time I found one, it was either ridiculously priced or not in tip-top condition. Well, Gerad solved that problem for me as this one is a gem!!!
Thank you Gerad!!! I owe you one!!!
**on a side note, don’t the 1987 Topps Cubs cards look awesome? I know I am biased, but the Red,White, and Blue looks great with that wood paneling!!!
