  • I found some Cubs minor league sets with some fun/odd/awesome cards tucked in them. Plus, some $1 rookies, 80s oddball sets, and other assorted items. #collect #thehobby #baseballcards #80s #tradingcards

    Great pick ups! Love the Tru Value cards and you can't beat that Cubby Bear card! Classic! Thanks for sharing and keep on rocking!

      @@DontTalktoRobots the True Value cards are totally awesome, but finding out there is a second version of all of them with a different ad has me wondering if I need to chase the rest. The answer is yes, of course. Haha. And the Cubbie Bear card is quickly moving up my list of my favorite cards. Thanks for watching!

    Cubbie... you're scaring the kids again... Little did they know a simple visit with the Snuggle Fabric Softener Bear in the washer and dryer would bring back Cubbie to loveable status. Nobody knew about the trouble he got into in his side gig with the ShowBiz Pizza Place Band... But he powered through that - for the fans! It was a happy ending haha... What a great bunch of cards!

      Very cool. Ironically, Jim Tracy went to Badin HS in Hamilton, OH, same as Kent Tekulve (although it was called “Catholic HS” when Tekulve went there). Tekulve also happened to go to Marietta College. Hamilton -> Marietta College pipeline, apparently.

    Man, I had a bunch of comments lined up for all of the cards…until Cubbie Bear popped up. A van with no windows?! Hahaha! And then the Cubbie Bear voice! I’m dying.
    That last set is so great too. I saw that Hawkins not to long ago and love it!
