My son T and I attended the Celebration of the 1986 Mets at Citifield on August 1. I grew up in Flatbush and as a child of the 1980s, the 86 Mets were my formative baseball memory!

To commemorate, I ordered a 5 pack of Topps Now cards from that event.

Randomly got a “Lucky Hit” Black Parallel numbered to 10!

Black and Gold parallels are my favorite so hitting this card was extra sweet!

Happy Mets Mailday!

These are 2 cards that are marked off my top 10 bucket list!

These arrived yesterday! All flagship Topps Black serial numbered between 54-72. The Beltran is his first Mets card!

I’ve been looking for this card since December 2024… This Topps Now card is Soto’s first Mets card after signing with them in December 2024. They made a 1/1 auto with an inscription, and then 10 serial numbered autos without the inscription. Personally until last week I’ve never seen one available in the marketplace. So very glad to win this auction.

My wife and I picked up 2 booster boxes and a trove, from the two LGS where we play, paying MSRP (not scalper price)!

This Best Buddies Enchanted my wife pulled is pretty cool!
