Psych Season 5-8

I have recently starting buying Cryptozoic after I saw their products featured on the blog of Sports Card Collectors.  I won a contest of his a few months ago (awesome Walking Dead auto from Sunkrish Bala who plays Dr. S) and it made me look in to what other products they have.  And boy do they have some awesome products for some of my favorite tv shows and movies (I have other boxes of theirs that I will be showing off soon enough.  I was on DA card world to buy one box....and well that turned into multiple boxes of a random assortment.  First up is Season 5-8 of Psych a show which I like and the price was pretty nice for three guaranteed autographs.


I was lazy and did not take pictures of the base cards or the inserts but I liked the base cards and a big positive for me was that I was able to get the whole base set which is a positive for me.  I received four inserts- one from Psych the Musical, one from Psych Undercover and then two character bios which were my favorite of the three.  I was very happy with my autographs which are here below.  Out of list I would have ranked Anthony Anderson as my top choice for an autograph since I enjoy all of his work (plus I did pull an Anthony Anderson Allen & Ginter autograph last summer of his so maybe time to start a Anthony Anderson PC).  



Overall I was quite happy with this break and I will definitely be grabbing more Cryptozoic hobby boxes in the future.

Hello there and thank you for checking out my first attempt at a Sports Card blog.  First I will introduce myself.  My name is Brad and I am an attorney from central Illinois.  I have been big in to collecting sports cards for as long as I can remember.  My main focus is baseball and hockey but I have cards of all types at this point.  I have recently started getting in to Cryptozoic cards and other non-sport cards which are a blast.  I have started getting in to the sports card online community by following a bunch of blogs and I decided to start my own blog in hopes of it motivating me to start organizing my collection in a more efficient way.

I have just started getting in to PCs so none of mine are very big at the moment (other than my St. Louis Blues and St. Louis Cardinals which are the majority of my collection) but now that I am involved with cards more I hope to build up some of them including Jim Thome, Patrik Berglund and then a couple others.  

I recently made a large purchase online of a few hobby boxes which I will be busting open tonight but will post by box over the next week or so.
To end off my first post I will show off a card that I just got in the mail the other day.  I pulled this out of a hockey loot locker in December as a redemption and promptly sent it in.  It was about a six week turn around that was definitely worth it.  I wish he was in a Ducks uniform but I have always been a big Selanne fan so this was an awesome pull.  It is number 06/25,
