March 2018 Ebay Wins

With all my time away from home recently, I had let my new acquisitions pile up, unscanned. As far as Ebay stuff is concerned, I finally got around to logging them in my want lists and digitizing them for future posts through May.

March was a lighter month for me. Work was getting really busy […]

Kerry Wood By the Numbers

Royals On-Card Addition: Mike Aviles

Sometimes thigns happen in little lovely Royals bursts. Just the other day, I was showing off my sweet new Carlos Febles auto and now I’ve got a brand new addition to my very irregularly growing Royals on-card auto collection!
