2011 Press Pass Legends #PP-1

Type: Insert Card

Acquired: Bought Online

I loved this card when I first saw it online. Two Auburn greats on one card? Yes, please! I was enthralled by the electrifying play of Cam Newton early in his career. Unfortunately that level of play did not last very long. He is still an NFL quarterback, but I don't believe he will ever reach those highs he had early in his career. I still dig this card due to the collegiate ties and no one can deny the type of player both of these amazing athletes were back when they were in school.

2005 Topps Pristine #21

Type: Base Card

Acquired: Bought Online

This is another card from that early 2000's spending spree I was on. It is a very nice looking card. The chrome and the graphics on the front almost make me miss the fact that it has a pretty bland, white background. The retro looking backs are a nice touch and it has an overall nice design.

2005 Studio Portraits #SP-16

Type: Limited Numbered Set

Acquired: Bought Online

I bought this card when I was on a Bo Jackson online purchasing kick. I was buying every card I could find that was not already part of my collection and this was on of those cards. I think I paid around $5 for it. With only 40 of these cards produced, I think I got pretty lucky with that price. I have seen online that there are several color variations of this card and the one I received was the "Sepia" variant. It is a beautiful looking card and I am glad I was able to snag it for a decent price and add it to my collection.

1987 Topps Tiffany #170

Type: Base Card

Acquired: Bought Online

I never really knew about the Topps Tiffany sets until the late 90s. I never saw them anywhere for sale at shops or shows. Maybe I did, but just thought they were the typical base cards? Honestly, they are hard to spot unless you flip over the cards and see the whiter, brighter back sides. Unless you do that, you are likely to miss them. I bought this card online and it is now part of my 1987 Bo Jackson "Future Stars" collection of variants.
