Stickers
 Boston Red Sox and LA Dodgers
LA Dodgers and Cleveland Indians (x2)
I had a Bob Horner in the previous eBay post, but this one commemorates one of the rarest feats in baseball he accomplished in 1986, hitting four home runs in a single game. The next player to do it was Mark Whiten in 1993, and the previous was Mike Schmidt in 1976. He's also one of only two players to do so in a loss for his team, at least according to the record books. The other was in 1896.

Stickers
Oakland A's (x2)
Oakland A's and Houston Astros (x2)
I could see these stickers being good for labeling your boxes or binders if you store your cards by team. I work by set, though, so I'll keep them intact for now. As with the last post, these came from my half-cent box, costing me 21 cents, knocking my average below 1.5 cents per card.
