Chasing the 2004 Fleer Greats of The Game Baseball set, Part 1

There I was. At the 2016 National in Atlantic City. My wife and youngest daughter were at the beach and I was walking to the Convention Center. Money to spend. Checklists to whittle down. Nothing could have been finer.

Except maybe to find a few of the cards that I was hunting!

You see…..I’m trying to do the improbable! Notice I did not say “impossible,” although that may be more appropriate and a more correct word to select. I am trying to put together a “regular guy’s” version of a master set for the 2004 Fleer Baseball Greats of the Game product. When I say “regular guy” what do I mean? I mean that I’ll take out all of the 1/1’s and as a matter of fact, I’ll remove everything more rare than “of 10” from my quest. Believe it or not, that removes sixty (60) cards from the set. And when I say “master set,” I mean an example of every card available (for a regular guy!).

With my next addition, I’ll dig into what this set is all about.

Until then…..
