My son and I were able to go through the box tonight after he got home from baseball workouts. He Was able to find another Perfect Game auto, I grabbed a couple vintage cards for the PC, a Joao for my daughter, Nick Boyle (plays at our local golf course, and a couple Reynolds for my buddy who’s a huge pirates fan. We have it loaded back up with the cards we grabbed from our last show and ready to get on its way. Will try and get it out tomorrow before thanksgiving but if not, will send it out Friday.

Throw me back on the list wherever. I've got a whole bunch of nice 90s inserts and pre-war non-sports that need a new home.

Box went out this afternoon. Was all set to send it on Friday and label printed but didn’t have a new Large flat rate and didn’t want to reuse the one it came in, so I grabbed one today and shipped it out!

Box has arrived! My kids were pumped to find Pokémon. I still have several boxes to go through and won’t finish until tomorrow night most likely as I’m headed to work now. Hope to have the box out to the next location on Thursday or Friday.

Thanks for the awareness around that, duwal. It's an important part of Box participation and helps keep everyone engaged. If anything changes and you come up with a way to take and post pictures, please let us know.

Sorry for my delay in posting pictures.
1st Picture My kids loved picking out new Pokémon for their collection and to give several to our friend who lives across the street. 2nd Picture Pulled soccer and racing commons for my nephew. Braves cards will go to a few guys in my youth group. 3rd picture Vanderbilt guys on the top row that I collect. Set building and cards I liked in the second row. Huge basketball fan as a kid in the 90s so couldn’t pass on those. 4th picture Favorite part of the box. Loved the tobacco mini cards and the butterflies. Got to invite my wife into the fun and picked out our favorites. We plan to frame these. Look forward to participating again in the future. Thanks as always to everyone who keeps this rolling!

AWESOME stuff, busyb3!~ Love the oddball finds you and the missus chose and I love the framing idea. And I'm glad to hear that the youths in your life were able to partake and receive some fun stuff, too. Thanks for posting pics and sharing some stories with us.
And, yes, WHO'S NEXT?! |

Bump bump bump bump bump! It's Christmas week! Happy holidays to all who celebrate and a hearty bah humbug for those who enjoy that sorta thing, too.
Anyone have any interest in the Box? I wouldn't ask busyb3 to deal with the post office during these seasonal times but if anyone has interest and is able to share what they choose with us, please feel free to make yourself the queue! Regardless, I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys opening some packs or sorting through their collection. |

Mmbtvs did such a great thing with this box. I spent years keeping this box up and going, thank you so much to @mmbtvs for allowing me to do that. Unfortunately I do not have cards for this box anymore. I still love seeing it go, but am getting out of the hobby so will not enjoy it as much. Someone please take this box and keep it going! I enjoy seeing others enjoy what I can’t!

Hey hey it's 2026. What does that mean?? Well, we're a large handful of weeks away from pitchers and catchers reporting, for one thing. For another, it's a great year for Box!
You've read what dashcol wrote! The Box kept them going! Don't you want to keep going??! Don't you want to post and share what you selected from the Box and why? Of course you do. Now all you need to do is let us know. Who's up?! |

I can take it if no one else jumps on it! I will probably not take much as I am only keeping cards for the safe, but….i have a couple cards that would look nice in the box!

Half the fun is seeing someone take what you put into it. I will also clean it up and throw out any non star base like I always do. I actually just found the box I used to throw base in the last time I had it. I had to question where did I get a box of basketball and football random base cards? I don’t clect those, so where did they come from? Then it dawned on me, the box! Luckily I found it before the trash company came!
