Ken Griffey Jr. 1989 Mother's Cookies RC #4 in PSA Gem Mint 10
Photo: Ken Griffey, Jr. 1989 Mother's Cookies #4 in PSA Gem Mint 10
Not too much to say about this one, except that it's a great picture, and is one of four cards of Griffey produced by Mother's Cookies in 1989. I've got this one, #4, and his #3 will be here shortly. Still on the lookout for a decently-priced 1 and 2. This one is supposedly the hardest to get and of the greatest value of the four. I got it for $30.75, including shipping, and PSA currently values it at $45, for a profit of $14.25---not too bad for a recent card. I've got #s 1 and 2 on my radar, but I'm waiting for their prices to come down. These are a bit more rare, so they won't be up for bid on eBay regularly.

Yanks Lose ALCS, 3 Games to 2
Photos: Jose Altuve's Gem Mint 10 rookie card, from my collection.
Yanks lose 4-0 and go home as the Houston Astros move on to the World Series. So despite Judge's 50+ homers, a high-powered offense, and getting past the heavily-favored Indians, the Yanks go home. What. A Damn. Shame.
