6 Years of Mischief

 

My little troublemaker turns 6 today, so as with the past few years, I'm highlighting the newest cards in her 7/12 slider box.

As before, please don't send me cards of people that qualify for the collection.

With the opening photo of Mischief featuring her alongside her beloved outside toy "Ol' Flatty", it is only suitable to show what a soccer ball should look like. This is also now the only soccer card in the collection so far.

What team made the most appearances this time around? It is the Hiroshima Carp. Brad Eldred does have a second appearance in the collection, but this one does allow for the team logo to make a front of the card appearance.

Lots more baseball this time. Only Hammer makes a second appearance in the collection. The Lin is a 'Reptilian Refractor', perfect for a Diamondbacks card. Logan Porter's is a green border parallel, even if the text on the back claims it is a white border one. Sipp is the first of two numbered cards in this, with there being 2014 more out there if I want to complete his run.

The only hit this time. At least I can read the initials. Even if I could mistake the C for L. I guess this is also a zero-year card, as he'd play zero games with the Red Sox in the majors. His only MLB appearances would be with the Cubs.

There's no basketball entries this time - not even a single SG-A entry. But there were a couple hockey ones, including Mischief's first overseas hockey card.

All of the football entries were parallels. Including a refractor-y Bills card that counts as the other numbered one. Also, my first CFL cards are part of this grouping.

Finally, the everything else portion. Benny Parsons is the first person from the auto-racing world in the collection. Given that I've actually heard of him, that's probably enough to qualify him as a legend. Kai Greene is also the first bodybuilder there as well, even if I can't imagine there being too many cards from that sport. George Eastman is not the first inventor in the collection though, thanks to the presence of another George, in that case Washington Carver.

Also, does that final line really qualify as a Highlight? 

I can't end like that, so here's another picture of Mischief, this time having an adorable nose-touching session with one of her pals, Leo.

There you have it!
