Need 1 Franklin Morales card

[cubman1941]

My son-in-law and grandson went to Fenway in August. They were at batting practice in center field and Franklin Morales tossed my grandson a ball. I have a holder for it but would like to put a card of Morales with it. I only opened one blister pack of 2013 and did not get him. Any help would be appreciated and I will gladly trade if I have one you need.
Thanks.

do you need him to be pictured with the red sox or are you open to cards from his time with the rockies ?

 

[cubman1941]

I would like him to be in a Red Sox uni since my grandson (and his father) are Red Sox fans. Thanks for asking.

his only red sox card is 2012 topps update. i dont have one but i hope this will help your search.

Thanks. I gather then there were no 2013 cards of him as a Red Sox? Maybe my grandson was wrong in who threw the ball to him??
Appreciate it.

sorry , i can't help you either...if a rockies card would suffice , i'd be glad to send you a 2007 bowman draft future's game prospect card for free , but i understand the desire for a card picturing him with the red sox....good luck in your quest - i'm quite sure someone here with plenty of 2012 topps update can round you up one...

I have the 2012 Update Morales. If you happen to have anything I need, great - if not, go ahead and post it as a free card.


Thanks,
Dan

Dan,
I do have a 2011 Topps Lineage 75 Mini 4- Posey if interested. I also looked at your Ripken needs and am going to look at a box I have in an antique shop where I have about 200 Orioles for sale to see if there is a Ripken in there you might need. I know there are some in there. Then I will get back to you.

Sounds good - if you see anything on my trade page you can use, I'm open to expanding the trade.


Thanks,
Dan

Dan,

I have gone through my O's - couple of possibilities-
1997 Pacific Collection - GD 16 (has some dings at top)

also a card front Cal Ripken, Jr. #8
back Licensed by The Tufton Group - name etc. by permission of the Baltimore Orioles

1991 Topps Micro O's set with 5 and 150 Ripken's

1985 TOPPS RUB DOWN – Ripken with 3 other players
1984 TOPPS RUB DOWN – Ripken with 3 other players
(The same Rub down – just different year marking)

1995 Classic pre-paid phone box empty with Ripken on

2011 Topps Lineage Rookies Brandon Belt


You have some great cards. I am a Cubs guy and decided a couple years ago to just concentrate on going with vintage so gave up collecting the current stuff. I am in the process of putting together a list of what I have left to try and sell on another site. I have listed them on the Bench for trade with no takers so will try another route. I don't do EBay.
Let me know if any (or all of these appeal to you) and we can do a deal.

Thanks much.

Jim

Hi Jim,

It sounds like I can use any or all of them. I couldn't find the Tufton card in Beckett OPG, but I know Tufton is Ripken's marketing company. Probably a couple dollar card - here's BVs on the rest:

1997 Pacific Collection - GD 16 $4
1991 Topps Micro O's set with 5 (.40) and 150 (.75) Ripken's (entire team set, $3 or so)
1985 TOPPS RUB DOWN – Ripken with 3 other players $2
1984 TOPPS RUB DOWN – Ripken with 3 other players $2.50
1995 Classic pre-paid phone box empty with Ripken on - no price in the OPG for boxes, just the cards themselves - ???
2011 Topps Lineage Rookies Brandon Belt $3

PLMK what you're interested in from my list. I'll be away from home till Saturday afternoon but will have internet access while I'm away.

Thanks!
Dan

Dan,
I have not bought a price guide for 9 years and really have never worried about that as an old friend said, it is all only cardboard. My trades have been on a gut feeling - I have something someone needs and they have something I need - and it sounded reasonable I went for it. So with that in mind I have pulled the above for you. When you get back and if you can find some any 2013 Cubs to send with the Morales, great. If not post and I will get these out to you. As I said I am in the process of selling what little I have left as my son is not a baseball fan, my son-in-law and grandson are Red Sox fans, my daughter is a Packer fan and my granddaughters are both Brewer fans. I, as an old, old Cub guy, am on my own. I tried selling the stuff in an antique mall I am in but in our little town there are no hard core baseball collectors left.
Thanks.
Jim

Us dinosaurs gotta stick together!

Let me see what I can find for you when I get home on Saturday - I should have some stuff you can use.

Thanks again!

Did some digging and found these for you to go with the Morales:

2013 Topps base: 44, 209, 280, 299, 355, 391, 457, 534, 551, 561, 567, 573, 578, 584, 609, 643
2013 Gypsy Queen base: 223, 335
2013 Topps heritage base: 49, 144, 145, 322
2013 Topps Chasing the Dream CD-6 Rizzo

2013 Topps Chasing History CH-54 Rizzo
2013 Topps Making Their Mark MM-17 Rizzo
2013 Topps Target Red Border 534, 584, 609
2013 Gypsy Queen White Framed 335 Soriano, 341 Barney

PLMK if these would work for the Ripkens. Thanks!

I would be happy with any or all. I think you are trading away too much for what I have to offer. Post if you will and, providing I am not working on a Habitat house, I will get them out in the AM. Other wise it will be in the afternoon. Thanks.

Jim
