Team Combo cards are done!

After a good amount of work, I can finally say that all of the subset cards in my custom 1992 Topps set are done. I finished the last of the "team combo" cards yesterday, and after an issue with my password, was unable to upload them to Blogger. I resolved it today, and uploaded them, and now you can see all of the team combo cards for every team in 1991. Next up will be the Chicago Cubs team set. After all of the team sets are done, I will probably make a post featuring all of the fronts of the cards in the set in numerical order, and then start making backs to the cards, and posting them one by one. I really think that once I start posting backs of the cards that it will make my stats jump alot. I've had a few hits on searches with keywords like 'Terry Puhl Royals' or '1992 Topps Mike Piazza', so I look forward to hopefully seeing traffic increase and being able to help out bloggers and card collectors who would like to make or print cards like these. Thanks for checking out my blog project.

Award Winners, League Officials, and World Champs

Well, I am finally moved, and finally got a chance to work on a few cards. We still have a ton of boxes to figure out where we are going to put, but after the crazy week we have had, it felt good to just relax and make a few cards. I finished the AL and NL MVP, CY Young, and Rookie of the Year award winner cards, the AL and NL president cards, the Commissioners' card, and the Minnesota Twins World Series Championship card. After doing 2 more season highlight cards to finish out that subset, I will do around 20 more "team star/nucleus/combo/whatever you want to call them" cards, and then back to work on the team sets. I tried as hard as I could to find team photos for all 26 1991 MLB teams, but was unsucessful, so I have given up on making them. I hope you enjoy these '92 Topps cards. Thanks for reading.

And the checklist just got bigger....

A few days ago Paul, one of my readers, suggested that I add any players who were on the Disabled List the entire 1991 season to my set. I don't know why I hadn't thought of that. I had always seen on Todd Worrell's 1993 Topps card that he was on the DL in 1991, but never put it together that he didn't appear in the 1992 Topps set. Paul named off the players that were on the DL in 1991, and I'm glad he did, as I had assumed that most of those players had retired in 1990, when in fact, they had missed the 1991 season due to injury, and had played in 1992. While I was trying to do some research on what teams those players were on in 1991, I discovered that I had missed a few players on the San Francisco Giants. So, I added those players to the checklist, and decided (maybe against better judgement) to add "team combo" cards for the rest of the league (I had already made ones for the Cardinals, Padres, Giants, Angels, and Tigers). I will probably have to edit the back of the last checklist in the set, but that should be pretty simple. After all that, the full 1992 Topps set, including ones I have added will jump to 1339 cards.

I finished a few cards today, and now all of the All-Star cards are done, and every Postseason Highlight card is done except for the Minnesota Twins celebration card. I will probably start on the Award Winner cards next, then the League Presidents/Commissioner, Twins celebrations, and 2 final Season Highlight cards, then start on the team combo cards. I hope that won't take too long, because I really want to get back to work on all of the team sets. Thanks to Paul for helping me find some players that I missed, and thanks to everyone who reads my blog.

Subsets: What I've done so far

After finishing team sets of the Atlanta Braves, Detroit Tigers, and Minnesota Twins, I decided to step away from teams sets for a little while and finish all of the subset card fronts. I am still about 15 cards away from finishing them all, but I have got all of the World Series Highlight cards done, have 2 more Season Highlight cards to do, and 2 more All-Star cards to do. After those, I just have some Award cards, League Presidents and Commissioner cards, and I should be done with all of the subsets. I am in the process of moving, so this might take longer than normal, but I hope to have all of the subsets done by at least mid-April, and then start finishing team sets, starting in the National League, and going from the Chicago Cubs to the San Francisco Giants, and then the AL, going from the Baltimore Orioles, all the way through the Toronto Blue Jays, finishing all of the fronts in the set. Then will come the tough part of making backs, but at least I will have a picture of all of the fronts. Might even do a post showing the fronts of all of the cards in the set. Thanks for your patience, and thanks for checking out my blog.
