Morneau Autographed Baseballs

I originally titled this post “Moreau Autographed Balls” but I had a feeling if I left the title as such, I would attract a whole different audience this time. So I changed it slightly. Anyway…
I figured I would break from the baseball card form and go with something different. Now that I finally managed to pick [...]

Morneau Sterling Fold-Out

Patience is certainly a virtue. Yes, in this hobby it is sometimes VERY difficult to be a patient collector but there are times when it pays off. Last year when Topps announced that Justin Morneau would be included in the Topps Sterling product, I was really geeked up about it. The Sterling cards I knew [...]

A Morneau Premier Double Feature

Now that I got my Bat Around assignment completed, I figured it was time to get back to the main point of this blog, and that is my Morneau collecting.
A few months back I manged to pick up this card (right) from the 2008 Upper Deck Premier product. This is Morneau’s autographed base card variant [...]

Morneau Triple Auto – I’m weak!!

About a month or so ago I wrote a post on here talking about one of the hardest items for a player collector to have to deal with….the multi player card. In the post I said that for me, it ultimately it comes down to who else is on the card. This was one of [...]

Morneau – Stadium Club Style!

A couple weeks ago in my review of 2008 Stadium Club Baseball, I said that singles from this year’s product should be very affordable after awhile and I appear to be correct since I picked up two Morneau cards from the product for pretty darn cheap.
The first card is the “1st Day Issue” variation of [...]

Finally!! A new Morneau card!

I don’t know if it is because I’ve become a pickier collector or if there just hasn’t been any good Morneau cards out on ebay lately, but I haven’t had a new Morneau card in what feels like ages. On Monday I finally got a new one and I’m pretty happy with it.
I picked up [...]

Morneau in BLACK!

Finally the postal carrier had something for me in the mailbox that wasn’t a bill or an application for some credit card that I don’t need. Today brought two recent ebay scores to add to my Morneau collection and both are from 2007 Upper Deck Black product. Most collectors know of the problems with chipping [...]

2006 By the Letter Project

In the 2006 edition of SP Authentic, Upper Deck debuted their “By the Letter” sets. Each player has various cards that when collected will spell out their last name. So I chose to try to complete the set for Justin Morneau and with the card I received yesterday, I am this far along:

Obviously, I still [...]

Morneau in silk…

You know, after I wrote that title, I wondered if I should change it, but I decided to let it go. Tonight I thought I’d spotlight a couple new additions to my collection. Last year (at least I think it was last year), Topps had the grand idea of including “silk” inserts into select card [...]

Today’s New Additions

I guess I’ll kick things off on here with a couple cards I got in the mail today.
The first one I got was this 2002 Bowman – Signs of the Future autographed card. When I came across this one on ebay, I didn’t even know it existed. I knew Morneau had an autographed card in [...]
