Happy Birthday

by jupiterhill - 176 cards (Last updated on Oct 1, 2020)

Originally the concept was called "The Birthday Binder" which I would have one card for each day of the year. Since I moved away from binders, I have created a collection on here and will also use this list. The only criteria is each person depicted must have their birth date listed on the card. They must be real people, but otherwise, any celebrity, athlete, politician, or whoever may be chosen for that specific date. At times I reserve the right to remove or replace the card or the person for that date. I will try to update it at the beginning of each month, and whenever I add or remove cards.

2009 Bowman Draft Picks #12 Peyton Manning Front

81. 2009 Bowman Draft Picks #12 Peyton Manning

Born: 3/24/1976

Reason Chosen: I mean I thought I should include him on here since I remember seeing most of his career.

82. 1993-94 Topps #123 Dale Davis

Born: 3/25/1969

Reason Chosen: Since Missouri has no NBA teams, I rooted for teams on a game by game basis. I rooted for the Pacers a lot around this time. My card has perforated edges, so I might scan it for this list. Not sure what the deal is, maybe it came from Topps magazine and isn't in the database yet.

2009 Donruss Americana #90 James Caan Front

83. 2009 Donruss Americana #90 James Caan

Born: 3/26/1940

Reason Chosen: I love the look of this set, and James Caan is a good person to have represent this set.

2013 Sports Illustrated for Kids #268 Matt Harvey Front

84. 2013 Sports Illustrated for Kids #268 Matt Harvey

Born: 3/27/1989

Reason Chosen: SI For Kids card. I somewhat like Matt Harvey and hope he can become the same good pitcher he once was.

85. 2014 SAGE HIT #106 Derek Carr

Born: 3/28/1991

Reason Chosen: Like to have younger people on the list, and when choosing cards for this set thought he might have a bright future. He still can, so we'll see.

2009 Topps American Heritage - American Presidents #AP10 John Tyler Front

86. 2009 Topps American Heritage - American Presidents #AP10 John Tyler

Reason Chosen: Really like this set and any chance to include non-sports people I will especially Presidents.

87. 2014 Topps #259 Richard Sherman

Born: 3/30/1988

Reason Chosen: Uh, likely a placeholder. I'm not much of a fan of his, so while I know many are I thought I would use it for now until I find someone else to put here.

2012 Upper Deck MLS #74 Justin Braun Front

88. 2012 Upper Deck MLS #74 Justin Braun

I really liked this list! My favorites parts are the write up on the Mike Marshall card. I have a Luke Walker from 1969 that is folded and wrinkled and trimmed because I kept it in my back pocket for good luck when I was a kid. I wouldn't trade that card for anything now. Also the Eddie Kennison write up brought back memories of some of the Pittsburgh Pirates boxes I bought off ebay, now I have very, very, very many Steve Cookes.

Good Job!

Thank you. I really need to scan the Marshall card so it will show up on here. I miss the days where buying a box off ebay was cheap enough to enjoy. Now shipping just about kills any deal.
