On the Road With the Wallet Card

Went on a little road trip with the family yesterday and brought Little Mack along. The destination? The Wizard of Oz Museum in Wamego, Kansas.

Here he is with Tinman.


Here he is with the Scarecrow.



Here he is with the Cowardly Lion.


Here he is with the Wicked Witch.


Lastly, here he is with the cast of Seinfeld.


Little Mack does not like my wallet. He has got a nice crease running along top edge and another one running down the right edge.

Wallet Card Wishing My Oldest Card a Bon Voyage


Here is my first wallet card photo. Steve Macko has only been in there for a couple days and he is already hating my wallet. Steve made an appearance to send off my oldest card to get signed. What card is that?

It is this beauty


As soon as that envelope left my hand and dropped down the shoot, I started having second thoughts. What if it is too cold and a stamp falls off? What if it ends up at a neighbors house and they keep it? What if, what if? My wife paid a handsome sum for that card and she will probably kill me if it does not make it home.

The wait begins.

My Wallet Card


Here is the card that I picked out for the wallet card game. It's a 1981 Donruss Steve Macko. I picked this card out for a couple of reasons. For starters, I have four of these cards. Plus, it is from my favorite set to get signed. But, what sets this card apart from all the rest is that I will never get this card signed. It is my white whale and the reason I have never gone all in on getting the '81 Donruss set completely signed.

Steve's career ended after the 1980 season after being diagnosed with testicular cancer. He died in November, 1981. I have no clue if there are any of these cards signed by him. But, if there are, I am sure they would fetch a pretty penny.

With the flimsy '81 Donruss card stock and the tight confines of my twelve year old wallet, I do not think this card is going to fare too well. Only time will tell.
