As a blogger named beardy, I absolutely LOVE that Topps included 2008 Full Beard & Mustache champion Burke Kenny in this year's Allen & Ginter's set. I love it so much in fact, that I am going to try and attempt to collect EVERY Kenny variation in this year's release. Believe it or not, through 4 boxes of Ginter, I wasn't even lucky enough to pull his base card. So I truly will be starting from scratch. Too bad Topps didn't use a picture like the one above for his card. It would have looked a little better than just a dude with a huge beard in his sweats, and would really showcases what all that facial hair can do.Here's the rundown of Kenny cards I am searching for:
1. #61 Base card: ALREADY EN-ROUTE FROM Ryan's Memorabilia, BUT MORE COPIES NEEDED
2. #61 Mini card
3. #61 Mini A&G back
4. #61 Mini black framed
5. Mini no number back: WON ON EBAY LAST NIGHT!
6. #61 Mini Bazooka back: TRADE IN THE WORKS WITH RYAN OF Card Cache
7. #AGR-BK Burke Kenny beard hair relic
8. #AGA-BK Burke Kenny autograph: WON ON EBAY 5 MINUTES AGO!
If you were fortunate enough to pull any of the cards listed or shown above, please contact me about a trade. I am dead serious about trying to complete The Burke Kenny Octo-fecta. If I were really crazy, I'd add the red ink auto to this list. It would be nice to own, but I'm not made of money, and it's not like he's a Hall of Famer or anything.... at least not a baseball Hall of Famer.
Seriously, drop me an email or leave a comment if you have any of these cards for trade. I mean it!
Oh, and one more thing, make sure your sound is turned up, and CLICK THE LINK!

ReplyDeleteDon't forget the silk card.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about that already, Holy Hitter. If I go there, I may as well chase at least one of the printing plates too. This could get rather pricey...
ReplyDeleteI have the regular mini if you need it beardy.

ReplyDeleteI was gonna take a shot at this auction and then trade it to you, but thought you'd value it much more than I would, here's a red ink Burke Kenny auction, just in case you aren't already watching it:
