…Pail Kids!
My foray into collecting again is nothing if not based on nostalgia. I don’t know if more recent generations will have the same fondness for their youth, but practically every kid that grew up in the 80s loves to reminisce about pop-culture from the “early days.” Whether it’s cable television, MTV, and saturday […]
I have very few card collections given my limited resources and space, but I did decide some time ago to begin collecting on-card Royals autographs. It’s been a blast so far trying to track these things down and this is the latest addition to my collection. To view the cards currently in the collection, take […]

Just a friendly reminder that there’s still time to enter my incredibly easy Pack Lottery Contest relating to an incredibly convoluted product. Check out the link for more details on how to enter and how to get multiple entries (hint: if you’re a twitter follower already, you might as well enter). You didn’t win the […]
Magic, magic, magic. There’s been more Magic talk on this blog lately than on a Doug Henning Memorial site (albeit with far inferior mustaches here), but I have one more post about this glorious product. The collation in our case was nothing short of remarkable when considering it came from the Topps factories. We’re very […]
As a public service to you and yours this NFL Playoff season, we here at Community Gum present to you the 2010 Topps Magic Football SP list. As of yet, Topps has not released this list formally, but based on our case, here is the complete 48 card list of short prints. Full review and […]
I hope everyone out there and a great, safe, action-packed, cardboard-packed, relic-packed, on-card auto-packed, pack-packed holiday season!
The presents are all unwrapped and the candy cane high is finally starting to wind down, so I think it’s about time that I showed off the goods that were waiting for me under the tree. Since this […]
I recently took part in a Bowman Chrome Group Break over at Carl Crawford Cards. I actually didn’t mean to sign up for this break, I was trying to join in a previous one, but it was all full up. Long story short, I was given dibs on the Cubs for this. While I didn’t […]
Main Set When comparing Topps Update to Topps Series 2, it’s clear as cream that improvements have been made. There were no drastically miscut cards to be found this time around (although our Jumbo boxes did encounter the not uncommon phenomenon of bent corners on cards that dwelled near the tops/bottoms of the brick packs), […]
I just realized that it’s been right around 6 months since I officially started collecting specific players instead of sets. I’m also just over a year back into the hobby. Looking back and comparing the two 6-month periods, there’s no doubt the second half was much more fulfilling and exciting as a collector.
Before, I […]
