Random Card of the Day |
Monday, December 4, 2023Set: 1915 Gallaher The Great War Series (Rate) Card: #118 Sikh's Special Weapon “ So that's why they wear turbans, to prevent the "sharp outside edges" of the "Chakkar" from "inflicting a terrible wound" on their head. Also, I can't believe a full 100+ card set was made out of cards like this... ” -jdogg1228
2
“ This guy is a triple threat of fanciness. Fancy headwear, fancy medals and a fancy beard, and that's a very nifty coat too. I'll take a poster-sized version of this card. ” -ray fosse's ghost
7
“ Weapon's have changed a lot in 100 years although I don't think I'd like to face this one either. ” -scottwalker29
3

Sunday, December 3, 2023Set: 2019 Panini Unparalleled - Flight (Rate) “ Godawful background. How anyone could want this confounds me. ” -hiflew
8
“ The jaguar print goes well with the team in this case, but for any other team it looks hideous and hurts my eyes. Also, it seems like every Panini card uses the same photo for the front and the back which is extremely lazy. Why not put more effort into the quality of the cards instead of making thousands of random parallels(although I will say it's usually the difficulty of identifying parallels rather than the quantity of them that annoys me)? ” -jdogg1228
10
“ An unparalleled parallel!! Surely not? ” -scottwalker29
8
“ I don't understand the background. It looks like someone's really interesting looking bedsheet hanging out on the line to dry while there's Josh right out there playing intense-looking football player. It's certainly unparalleled. ” -ray fosse's ghost
3
“ Not the greatest design but they are shiny and do scan well.
I have three cards from this parallel set. Wait a minute! Oxymoron of the day: an Unparalled parallel.
” -freakizon
“ Eww ” -TwinKiller

“ Turn this crazy bird around, should not have got on this FLIGHT tonight. ” -BuccaneersDen
1
“ I thought those were supposed to be jaguar spots in the background, but....I really have no idea what the hell those are supposed to be. Did someone use their beach towel for the background? ” -Theron_Nett
“ Never trust a guy with two first names. ” -philliesphan
1
“ I hope that Josh has a good flight. ” -Brendan Barrick
“ That background is absolutely killing my eyes ” -SuperJTB2015

“ Don't [mess] with a centaur that won't hesitate to use an antler broken from its own head to beat you down with! ” -Theron_Nett

“ Because I was bored and had nothing better to do, I decided to translate the back. Let's just say something was wrong with the translator. "14 years since he made his first save on June 12, 1986, I have created a waiting record of 200 saves. 200 save domestic first ever for Fromagu: 130 years of history in the major leagues 23 people, Sasaki (Yokohama) influx from Japan. Again! Kim Yong-Soo, who posted 17 wins(77 and), said: "'100 wins- 200 years I also held the spirit of Eve."'There is also a fire in the major leagues there and 4 people from Japan, there is not a single person in Japan."
Apparently this pitcher "held the spirit of eve." and there was a fire in the major leagues that left 4 people from Japan, but then even they mysteriously disappeared. Whatever all that means lol. If you read all of that, congrats. ” -jdogg1228

8
“ I wish I could see an example of those famous 50s hot rod shoes mentioned on the back, but all I found were 50s-themed hot rod heels. ” -myrke
6
“ The shoes probably lasted longer than the players. ” -hamrlik22
6
“ Can't tell if this is a baseball card or an advertisement for shoes. Hmmm... ” -Theron_Nett

“ Nothing beats taking a holiday after punching cattle all season long. Their fists must be really sore! ” -Theron_Nett
6
“ Almost looks like a magenta printing plate. ” -hiflew
2
“ Fascinating! It's copyrighted "Wm Boyd" - not Topps - because after his movie series ended in 1948, William Boyd bought the rights to them all. He then got them onto TV, where they began a second life. He made a fortune off the character and the merch. ” -Hawthorne61
3
“ Nothing says Big Celebration more than 3 guys sitting on stationary horses! ” -Tscastle
