Ok guys, a little more than a month ago I started my Joe Carter collection. It was about time. Right now I have 11 GU cards and a refractor.

Joe is one of my favorite players of all time, and the Topps Tribute card is one of my favorites cards (I have one too).
If you have a Joe Carter have or wantlist, let me know if you are looking to do some trading. I am sure I have some Carters you could use.
Yeah, I'll get back to you about what we may need.
Sweet stuff so far. I'll always remember the "homerun" in the world series.

Love the autographed game-used batting gloves and the image of Carter in the card below. Truly one of his defining moments.

Justin
Thanks guys, you know I will. Could be a couple of weeks though.
Ok guys, last update for 2010! These 2 came in today. Some interesting ones, first:
This is a 2002 Danbury Mint 22 Karat Gold Card. The design looks a little like a 2001 Topps and 2006 Fleer Tradition.
This may look like a regular 89 Topps but tall. Actually this is a "talking" card. It's actually about 3x5 and you would put the card in a SportsTalk player. Sort of a rare collectible. It even has its own wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseball_Talk
Very nice collection!
Joe Carter falls into the "not quite" category of my supplement to my HOF collection called "Not Yet/Not Quite". Joe was a really good player who may have put up HOF numbers if he played longer, but was a player every team would want to have! To me, he is the everyday player version of Dave Stewart.
Cool looking gold card!
These came last week:
2002 Topps Reprint Archives GU Bat
2004 Donruss Leather & Lumber GU Batting Glove 09/50
2002 UD Classic World Series Matchups GU Jersey
Some cards came in today:
The others were doubles. Some of the main cards I want to highlight are the 95 Leaf Statistical Standouts /5000, 96 Leaf Limited Limited Gold and 93 UD SP Platinum Power Die-Cut. I already had this GU card creased in a couple areas so it's nice to have a nice one now.
Cool stuff.
Today's update:
2003 Fleer Rookies & Greats The Naturals Auto/GU Bat
Couple more should be coming soon.
Nice add, great looking card
Today's addition:
2009 UD SP Legendary Cuts Legendary Memorabilia 038/125
Not just Carter was in the mail:
Carter/Tony Gwynn/Brian Lawrence 2005 Playoff Absolute Memorabilia Team Trios Pants/Bat/Jersey
Only my 2nd of him as a Padre I think...next update in a week......or 4
Cool triple
Very nice!! I used to have one of those talking cards, but it was a nascar one (in the shape of a car). I might still have it??
very nice adds to the collection! Congrats and keep em coming!
Justin
Thank you. For today's update:
2009 UD SP Legendary Cuts Legendary Memorabilia 30/50
Nice looking card!
Today's long due update:
Joe Carter signed SI from April 1987
was beginning to wonder if there was gonna be an update! This is a pretty impressive update! Congrats!
Justin
Thanks, I'll appreciate something Blue Jays associated just a little more... And don't you worry, there will be another update this week.
In for today:
2009 UD SP Legendary Cuts Legendary Memorabilia GU 061/100
Yet another one from 09 Legendary Cuts:
2009 UD SP Legendary Cuts Legendary Memorabilia GU 033/100
And it's not a white swatch this time!
A very nice update for today:
Carter/Carlos Delgado/Jeff Kent/John Olerud/Jose Cruz Jr./Orlando Hudson 2005 Playoff Absolute Memorabilia Team Six GU 010/100
Kent's is the only piece that's a jersey. A really sweet card here. I've never had a card featuring this many players and the best thing is it's a team I like. I would like one with older Jays but hey I can't complain.
thats a pretty sweet card! I really like the idea of putting members of the same team on it! very cool!
Justin
Today's update:
2006 UD SP Legendary Cuts GU
This arrived back on Friday:
2005 UD Classics Classic Materials GU
I think that may be from a Padres jersey.
Nice adds lately
It's been months but here's a new add:
2004 UD Legends Timeless Teams Autograph
I had to do google this set a little because I thought it was a little unusual this card had no bids but everything checked out. I think this is only my 3rd cert of him and the cheapest I acquired.
