182 Packs Giveaway, Part VIII

When I claimed the Cardinals - and Mark McGwire and Todd Stottlemyre - in the pack-per-day giveaway held at TribeCards, I had no idea just how many cards I'd wind up with, and how many different players. So that I can tag all of the sets and Cardinal players, I've broken this up into a series of who knows how many posts. Thanks for all the cards, David.

This is the last of the giveaway. But, I saved the most interesting for last, 1986 Donruss All-Stars. These cards are giant, about 1.5x as large as regular cards in each dimension. Much like Nachos Grande, I didn't even know about these cards before this break.

#8 Ozzie Smith
#23 Jack Clark

The cardinals had a good year in the All-Star balloting, which caused me to get 4 giant cards. Ozzie looks like he might be ready to go swing left-handed without an earflap on his helmet. As a kid, I distinctly remember my Dad telling me Ozzie would have been one of the only guys on the team old enough to be grandfathered into not wearing a flap.

I love the look of these cards, but I could never bring myself to perforate and actually stand them up. I'm such a tortured soul. It would appear from the 18-card checklist that only the starting lineups got pop-ups, so again I'm quite luckily to get 2 Cardinals.

Puzzle Pieces 61, 62, and 62

Finally, it's not glamorous, but not everyone can be, right? Part of the Hank Aaron puzzle, which I think may have only been in this product. Since I have 3 of 63 pieces, I'd happily send this along to anyone trying to complete the puzzle.

Well that's it for the 182 Packs Giveaway. It took a whole lot of sorting, scanning, and cropping, but I got them all up here. And of course, I want to say thanks to David at TribeCards once more.
