Poor centering could really hurt the look of the Taylor Gibson card. You can get away with it a little bit on some cards, not this one. I like it.

Will be a nice addition to my Gibson set.

I won't have a full Taylor set but I really, really like the ones I will have.

Well I just finished the last shot of the day and am posting without reading any comments on today's releases.

Physics: Rivera's cutter is coming at us so the pitch should be tailing a bit to the right of the card. You know. Rivera. Righty. Cutter. Unless it's a cutter that ain't cutting. But a cutter that ain't cutting shouldn't be on a Mo Project card.

Cultural History:Maybe I'm sensitive because I'm 5% African but Siff's 'negative' image combined with Mo's extended arm makes Mo look like a lawn jockey.

I just can't get past that just like I couldn't get past Sandy behind barbed wire.

On brighter news, I am finishing up in Bucharest this weekend and have a flight home!

Topps x Baller LAD set sold out in like 10 seconds.
I contemplated on qtty to buy (had 5 in cart), and it went out of stock right after.
This is what happens when Topps decides to go back to the old style of no qtty limits...

Never mind...

Collect them all!

As some of you know, Kurtz is an award-winning writer (2 noms/1 win) who does posts as companions to his regular line of work (writing, directing, what-not).

His posts are free. Collect them all! Just use the snipping tool and you can make your own digital book of glorious wit! Or print them out and burn them to eradicate the horror... the horror of his posts.

PS to that post you clipped (or... a sequel:) Chang does a nice job of blending her signatures into the art. Shore and Efdot wisely choose initials. These (among others) are fine with me. Siff destroys his art with his blatant signature.

I even flipped a Siff Ryan and bought a Shore-signed Trout. I liked the placement of his 'signature' and wanted one signed print.

Kurtz wasn't wrong about the tears. I saw many (non-BO) posts dogging on the artists and the prices after having buyers remorse and seeing prices on ebay tanking. I don't understand how anyone could put that on the artists. They priced their items for the market and people willingly bought in, furiously. I'll probably pick up a few after the project concludes and I'm looking for some extra mementos of P2020.

Those Ermsy hand embellishments are sweet. Too pricy for me, but they look great.

I really like the Siff Mo. Love how the unanimous blended with the pin stripes looks like the championship trophy. The bullpen phone is a nice touch also (in case of emergency, enter sandman). It works nicely with the other Yankee cards as well. Solid effort all around from Siff. And yes I am biased as many know he is my favorite of the artists haha.
