  • Set Adrift on Memory Bliss

    If you had access to Doc Brown's DeLorean, Doctor Who's Tardis or any other cool time machine and traveled back twenty-five years, you would discover...



    P.M. Dawn's Set Adrift on Memory Bliss is currently climbing the charts and will reach #1 on November 30th.





    Beauty and the Beast will be shown for the first time in its entirety at the El Capitan Theatretomorrow night.




    Two weeks ago, Magic Johnsonshocked the sports world when he announced that he had tested positive for HIV and would retire from basketball immediately.




    Mike Trout is exactly three months, two weeks, and one day old.

    And hundred of thousands of United States troops are starting to return back to The States after serving in The Gulf War.





    Some of them are carrying back specially stamped 1991 Topps baseball cards, which are considered very rare compared to the regular issue released back in The States.

    How rare? Well consider this...



    It's been estimated that Topps produced around four million copies of each card in the flagship set. Yeah... that's right. Four million copies.

    On the other hand, (based on two internet sources, which weren't around in 1991) Topps produced only 6,500 to 7,000 of their specially stamped Desert Shield cards. If you bust out the calculators... that's 1/500th of the production.

    Anyways... getting back to the time travel thingy... a few of those soldiers were fortunate enough to pull this:



    Damn... this card is sexy. Even without that special gold stamp in the upper right-hand corner... Topps did an amazing job with this card which appears to have captured Rickeydiving back into first base.

    Okay... it's time to jump back into our time machine and head back to the present time where...




    You'd discover that Prince Be, one of P.M. Dawn'smembers had passed awaya few months ago at the age of46.




    Beauty and the Beast has gone on to be a classic that has been enjoyed by millions and millions of people all over the world.




    Magic Johnson is still around and is a minority owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers.




    Mike Trout recently won his secondAmerican League MVP Award.




    There are still millions of 1991 Topps baseball cards flooding our hobby.



    And there's one super happy collector who finally gets to cross off the 1991 Topps Desert Shield Rickey Hendersoncard from his wantlist... after dreaming about it for twenty-five years.

    Thank you Jim... aka Mr. GCRL... for this awesome card! It has to go down as one of the coolest one-card PWE packages in my collecting history.

    Happy Monday and sayonara!
