Proposes a listing of all Expos player cards carrying a "Now with" or "Traded to" mention and listed under their new teams

A list of athletes who collect cards. This list is populated as I hear about them, so I realize there are many many more to be added. If you know of any to add please let me know.

The seriousness of these collectors vary: Some athletes only have a few of their own RC cards while some are serious enough to have become dealers.

A list of pro athletes I've randomly run into in public, i.e. not at a signing, planned appearance, or sporting event they were participating in. Listed chronologically in the order I ran into them.

Football cards that have actual "game-worn" material. For this list, the material can't be "player/event worn." The card must identify the material as "game-worn" or used in an actual NFL game.

My collecting goal is 1 card per unique player/team combination. This list documents new additions to that collection.

The dates listed on the entries reflect the date I added the card to my TCDB collection, not the date I acquired it.

To make the list manageable, split into chunks of 300 cards.

Updated 09 Feb 2024: I think I finally have this list in the order I want it. Until the next update that adds more cards.

As my last name is Andersen I like to collect cards of players with the same or similar last name. Ditto with guys named Kirk (or Curt) my first name. This is an ongoing list of cards in my collection that features people with the same (or similar) last name as me ANDERSEN (I also have a Kirk name list). The names Andersen, Anderson and close variants, even the close "Ander(s)" are included.

Setting up a list like this takes quite a bit of time and work, particularly reordering the cards after you have added a few to an already long list I knew that going in whenever I first made this list a few years back. I never got around to actively trying to get it fully updated.until recently.

All sports welcome.

I'm a Reds fan. When Shogo Akiyama became the first Japanese player to play as a Red, I was quite surprised to learn that the Reds were the last team to have a Japanese player suit up and play for them. I decided it would be interesting to learn who the other "firsts" were. As it turns out, most teams were late to the party. (The first was Masanori Murakami playing for 1 year in the mid-1960s and the second was Hideo Nomo in 1995 for the Dodgers with Shogo coming along in 2020).

I debated the inclusion of firsts after a team changed names. Obviously, the first Nat seemed to be worth separating from the first Expo, but was first Ray versus the first Devil Ray worth noting? In the end, I decided to include them, just as an excuse to grow the list a little bit and document team name changes over time.

Also, here's a quick list of team names which never had a Japanese player suit up for them (post-1964): Milwaukee Braves, Kansas City Athletics, Washington Senators, Seattle Pilots, Florida Marlins, and the Cleveland Guardians* (*still in existence, so could leave the list).

The retired numbers are currently on top of Citi Field's stands, facing the field behind home plate and along the third base side.

A list of players, as Detroit Tigers or Minor League Affiliates on card, where I have 100 or more different cards. Updated February 4, 2024.

These missing cards would complete a team set once acquired. List is in chronological order...hopefully.

Rookie cards for each of the top-50 players in WAR in Orioles history.

* denotes Hall of Fame Inductee
** denotes still accumulating WAR for the team

Since they are being retired, I made a list off all of the cards with this uniform.

A list of pitchers who Cal Ripken hit a home run off of during the 1982 season. I tried to use 1982 Topps cards when available. If a pitcher was hit off of more than once, I used a different card for each HR as you can only list a card once in the list.

My favorite QBs, depicted on the last regular issue card of their career.

Not sure how long this list will get or if I will actually try to continue with it. Anyway it is a list of cards I got that are not normally the type of thing I would add to my PC but for some reason I got it. There may be Non-Sport cards here with subjects I don't normally do. The cards or in a few cases the complete sets on this list I added to my PC for some reason or another.

The final NFL Draft pick is called "Mr. Irrelevant"

Paul Salata founded "Mr. Irrelevant" and "Irrelevant Week" in 1976. During the summer after the draft, the new Mr. Irrelevant and his family are invited to spend a week in Newport Beach, California, where they enjoy a golf tournament, a regatta, a roast giving advice to the new draftee, and a ceremony awarding him the Lowsman Trophy. The trophy mimics the Heisman, but depicts a player fumbling a football.

Cards I am looking for to complete certain player collections, or portions of certain player collections. Trading is turned off but if you have any of these that you're willing to part with in a small PWE deal, please reach out and I'll see if I can find something on your wantlist.

While my entire wantlist is large (I haven't even tried cataloging my Reds collection yet), I find it easier to focus on taking these collections in chunks at a time. For example, it's much easier and practical for me to dedicate my search to four or five specific Shawn Green or Buster Posey cards rather than add the thousands of missing ones to my wantlist. If I find something outside of this list I'll still pick it up, but these are the ones I'd really like to grab.

This collection started out as checklist cards with Ted's name included. They didn't seem worth including in my main collection, but they were easy enough to acquire for the most part. I then expanded it to include cards that may include Ted or his car in the picture, but not clearly visible enough to pick out for sure.

Cards where I'm like...
