Sunday, January 22, 2023Set: 1991-92 Franz Portland Trail Blazers (Rate) Card: #3 Three for the Defense (Buck Williams / Jerome Kersey / Cliff Robinson) “ Regional promo, very nice.

2
“ For some reason I like most of the 2007 set designs. ” -captkirk42
1
“ I've always liked the Bowman card backs . . . at least they tried to do something different yet still useful . . . the fronts are a hit and miss . . . This looks to be a miss . . . ” -georgecf

1
“ It's the "Big Tide" and currently the mayor of Juan Antonio Sotillo Municipality ” -tinyshogun

Friday, January 20, 2023Set: 2003 Topps Retired Signature Edition - Autographs (Rate) “ Certified blurry card! ” -Theron_Nett
2
“ I reckon this image needs replaced. But Jim certainly was a marvel, especially after his No-hitter 1993. True inspiration. ” -Derek McDonough
5
“ Funny, a thread was just posted about using a photo for a card image, and this one here pops up on the RCotD the same day. Come to the CCD side, Luke! The CCD type scanner is your friend! ” -CollectingAfterDeath

1
“ I guess I'd rather have a bad scan than no scan... but this is pretty bad. ” -jackal726
1
“ Not crazy about the front . . . Back is rather pedestrian . . . Card actually looks pretty ugly . . . ” -georgecf
1
“ Words cannot describe how clean this card is! If only the signature didn’t overlap the picture a little bit. ” -curling2019
“ Nice autographed card! Only drawback from autos from this era is the authenticity sticker on the back, feel like it takes away a lot from the card ” -IfbBirdsCards
“ He was truly remarkable. ” -muskie027

Wednesday, January 18, 2023Set: 2016 Kentucky Wildcats (Rate) “ Mascots are always good, even college ones. ” -Billy Kingsley

8
“ A Furry, hmmm, I remember once when the Red Sox came to Pittsburgh the same weekend that the Furry convention was being held at the Convention Center. I of course was fitted out with my Buccos stuff. Upon leaving one of the local establishments, I gotta a hug from a blue bear and the finger from some Red Sox fans. ” -Gunny
19
“ A cat well trained enough to hold and swing a bat seems more domesticated than wild. ” -Tscastle
2
“ By far the least wild cat wildcat I've ever seen ” -TwinKiller
2
“ The back of the card says the cat bats right handed, but the picture on the front indicates he’s never swung a bat in his life. ” -mrackar
3
“ Animal Obedience School? Bad Kitty. Looks pretty mobile for a mascot, so scratching out a base hit should be no problem. Nice card! ” -CollectingAfterDeath

“ I feel vaguely threatened ” -Lennoxmatt
“ It's been a while since I've seen a mascot as the random card of the day. ” -BigBoyOnWheels

” -Billy Kingsley
5
“ That's guy's flexing those long forearms! ” -domentho
1
“ I still have three unopened rack packs of the Topps version of these cards. Fun Fact: IG-88 (middle) had a very small appearance in The Empire Strikes Back, yet this Bounty Hunter has a highly sought-after toy in the larger Kenner action figures. ” -dettigersmlb
2
“ This card could also be called "Some really cool and thoughtful bounty hunter designs, and also Dengar." ” -jackal726
2
“ Love Star Wars! Boba and buddies!! ” -tinyshogun
2
“ Dark Helmet and his crew of spaceballs. ” -CollectingAfterDeath
2
“ Good vintage Star Wars no a modern retro. ” -captkirk42

Monday, January 16, 2023Set: 2017 Topps - Rediscover Topps 1986 Topps Stamped Buybacks Blue (Rate) “ Always thought this was a cool idea.
I think what they did was take the older cards they had left over in the factory and stamp it with the "Rediscover Topps" on the side. Of course even these have parallels lol. ” -jdogg1228
2
“ I like the Buyback concept. It makes a card that would otherwise be a duplicate something new to collect. I hope when Topps gets the NBA license back they do some like this. ” -Billy Kingsley
6
“ I was wondering how long it would be before one of these Rediscover Buybacks popped up! ” -rmpaq5
2
“ The Wizard of Oz! I miss seeing him play!! ” -tinyshogun
1
“ I wonder if it is cheaper for Topps to add a foil stamp to late 80s/early 90s buybacks and insert them into packs as inserts than to print new cards? That said, I do have a dozen or so in my PC. ” -mrackar
1
“ If you buyback the buyback card that Topps bought from you, does that make you the buyback seller buyback buyback buyer? Inquiring minds want to know. ” -hamrlik22
1
“ I get why we track these buy-backs.... but I hate it. ” -jackal726
1
“ nice card, great player, but the manufactured scarcity is beginning to bother me ” -jamestagli
1
“ Buyback aside, this card is an underrated classic. An almost perfect action shot of The Wizard. ” -DocOso
“ I like the 1996 Topps design, but I don't like the stamped buybacks. That said I do have one of these "rediscover Topps" buybacks that I received in a lot of cards. I forget if it was from a trade or a sportlots lot. ” -captkirk42

Sunday, January 15, 2023Set: 1978 Frisz Minnesota Twins (Rate) “ His AL record of 3 pinch hit grand slams (sorry, Home Runs, Bases Filled) still stands after fifty years - but now tied with Ben Broussard since 2007. ” -Hawthorne61
1
“ Nice portrait card. ” -Theron_Nett
2
“ Nice 70s vintage. I thought it was an SSPC card at first. ” -captkirk42
2
“ Not bad for a locally issued team set. Front would really benefit from having a name on the front though ” -IfbBirdsCards
“ Beautiful. ” -TwinKiller

Saturday, January 14, 2023Set: 2014-15 Ultra - Platinum Medallion (Rate) “ Love the Platinum parallels. ” -Billy Kingsley
2
“ I like the back of this card. It is easy to read. I am not a big fan of this parallel edition. ” -Brendan Barrick
“ Good card nice unis ” -parsley24
1
“ The way the scanner lights up the background of the card front, makes it look literally ice cold...and now I'm hankering for an ice cold beer, thanks. ” -CollectingAfterDeath
“ There are several modern sets that use the fade effect in their design. It works perfectly as the sets have faded from my memory. ” -Sportzcommish
1
“ One of Ultra's better designs, with the Platinum version looking very good. Love that Coyote Head logo for Arizona. ” -hamrlik22
“ OK Hockey card. I;m not a fan of the Platinum effect. Does the background in real life look that blue? Or is it more a silver sheen? ” -captkirk42
1
“ nice one,he looks encased in a block of blue ice, probably looks glorious in person ” -jamestagli
1
“ Cool card! I like the medallion touch ” -tinyshogun

Friday, January 13, 2023Set: 2009 Topps - Retro Gray Back (Rate) “ Vintage Stock before it was serial numbered. Not a bad action photo. Go Angels! ” -jdogg1228
3
“ Always liked this set, and the retro feel of these types of cards are pretty neat ” -IfbBirdsCards
2
“ Don't see a ton of sidearmers in the big leagues! ” -tinyshogun
2
“ 'This ball is so heavyyyyyy!' ” -Theron_Nett
2
“ That's making my arm hurt just looking at it! ” -CollectingAfterDeath
“ Nice variant? I am still very old school. I don't consider this a "gray" back but since the normal "base" cards are pure white glossy and not the raw cardboard not thin paper stock I guess they have to call it "retro", but "retro gray"? Still looks white to me. ” -captkirk42
