Flea Market Finds #41: Baseball Card Sets & Football Figurines

[sanjosefuji]

I'll keep this post short and simple. Last weekend, I hit up two flea markets and purchased two sets, two football figurines, and one autograph.

Here's the breakdown...

When: Saturday, July 6th
Where: De Anza Flea Market
What: A Baseball Card Set, an Autograph, and a Football Figurine
How much?: $20

Purchase #1: 1989 Bowman Baseball Factory Set$5

The baseball card gods are definitely watching over me. Early Saturday morning, I left the following message on one of Night Owl's posts:

And less than 12 hours later, I came across one at the flea market. I know that these Bowman's are a pain in the butt to store, but at this price I'm willing to suffer.


Purchase #2: Bill Bergey Autograph$5

If you collect football cards, then you're probably familiar with 1997 Upper Deck Legendsautograph set. I won't go as far as saying I'm building this set... but I'll pick up singles from time to time if they're affordable.

Purchase #3: 2002 Memory Company Figurine$10

I thought that this was a bobble head, but discovered it's a figurine with an oversized head. Oh well... it's still a pretty cool item for my Green Bay Packers shelf.

When: Sunday, July 7th

Where: Capitol Flea Market
What: A Baseball Card Set and a Football Bobble Head
How much?: $7




Purchase #1: 1993 Upper Deck Baseball Set$5

It's actually more like a 1993 Upper Deckstarter set, because it's missing 40 cards. If anyone out there has extras laying around, I need the following:

I had a feeling it wasn't complete when I purchased it. But I made sure it had the one key card before I handed over the five spot:

Purchase #2: Clevan Thomas Bobble Head$2

Yeah... I collect San Jose Sabercatsbobble heads. So what? I've been looking for a Thomas for awhile now to stand next to my Barry Wagner, Mark Grieb, James Roe, and Ben Nelsonbobbles.


Happy Thursday and sayonara!
