These 85 cards were sent by Nick of McKinney, Texas. A regular contributor, Nick has sent more cards to this effort than any other person in the history of the blog, and by a wide margin. A few notable inclusions in this lot were 7 copies of the 1987 Indiana Blue Sox card and a 1993 O-Pee-Chee. For literally decades I owned a single copy of the Indiana Blue Sox card, one I bought in a card shop as a kid. It remained that way when I posted about the card for the first time back in 2012. Then, out of nowhere, a reader sent me 325 copies of it in 2020. I didn't see another one until these 7 arrived. So while it's total number in my collection may seem to suggest it's not all that uncommon of card, those numbers are misleading. The 1993 O-Pee-Chee is only my 10th copy of the card and first one I've added since 2020.
Thanks for the cards Nick!
