1992 Topps card #951 Jeff Shaw

Jeff Shaw pitched in the Majors from 1990 to 2001. He pitched his first 3 years with the Cleveland Indians. He spent 1993 and 1994 with the Montreal Expos. He split 1995 with the Expos and Chicago White Sox, before leaving for the Cincinnati Reds. He spent 1996 and 1997 with them, before being traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers during the 1998 season. He spent the rest of his career with them before retiring after the 2001 season. His baseball life doesn't end there, as his son Travis now plays for the Blue Jays.

Jeff got his first Topps card in the 1994 Topps set. He appeared in the 1998 through 2002 Topps sets, and that was it for him. Jeff is missing cards from the 1990 Topps Traded, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1993 Topps Traded, 1995, 1995 Topps Traded, 1996, 1996 Topps Traded, 1997, 1997 Topps Traded, and 1998 Topps Traded sets. Besides the 1992 Topps custom, I have also made Jeff's 1993 Topps card.

That about does it for today. Thanks for checking out my latest post.

1992 Topps #950 Rick Dempsey

Been awhile since I've posted here, but I'm still plugging away. Here's the latest 1992 Topps custom.

Rick Dempsey was one of just a handful of people to play in the Majors in 4 different decades. He came up in 1969 with the Minnesota Twins. He played with them through the 1972 season. He played with the New York Yankees from 1973 to June 1976 when he was traded to the Baltimore Orioles, the team he is most famous for playing with. He was with them for a decade, staying with them through the 1986 season, and winning World Series MVP in 1983 during their World Championship season. He was with the Cleveland Indians for the 1987 season, spent 1988 through 1990 with the Los Angeles Dodgers, serving as the backup catcher in 1988, when they won the World Series. After spending the 1991 season with the Milwaukee Brewers, he returned to the Orioles for the 1992 season, his last. After playing, he got into coaching, serving with the Dodgers for the 1999 and 2000 seasons, and with the Baltimore Orioles from 2005 to 2006.

Rick got his first Topps card in the 1972 set. He was left off of the 1973 set, but then appeared in the 1974 through 1987 Topps sets. He got a 1987 Topps Traded card, was missing from the 1988 set, and then got into his last 3 Topps series in the 1989, 1990, and 1991 Topps sets. He is missing cards from the 1969, 1970, 1971, 1973, 1973 Traded, 1988, 1988 Traded, 1991 Traded, 1992 Traded, and 1993 Topps sets from his playing career, and the 1999 Traded, 2000, 2001, 2005 Traded, 2006, and 2007 Topps sets from his coaching career.
There are still a ton of Dempsey cards to be made, but I have finished his 1993 Topps playing sunset card, and his 2000 and 2001 Topps coach cards.
