Open That Box! Day

Today is Open That Box! Day over on the Non-Sport Update Forums. It's the day where everyone is encouraged to open a box of trading cards and share the results on the forum.

I opened a box of Fleer 1995 Fox Kids Network cards that I bought at a flea market last weekend for $1.00! It's a cool set if you're a fan of mid 90s Saturday morning cartoons. The set features cards from The Tick, Spider-Man, X-Men, Eek!Stravaganza and Bobby's World.

The full set has 150 cards and I got 77 of them plus 31 doubles. I'll have to find my wantlist to see if I need any of these for my set. I know I bought a bunch of these back in the 90s when they first came out, mainly for The Tick cards. I sure wish they made sketch cards back then, that would have been cool!

Pretty cool, huh?

I've been buying Non-Sport Update (NSU) magazine since it was first published in 1990. I love this magazine! Here's a description from their Facebook page --

Non-Sport Update magazine offers features, departments, pricing, and more for collectors of non-sport and entertainment trading cards (cards such as Star Wars, Stargate, Twilight, LOST, Elvis, Bench Warmer, and more). In addition to the articles, each issue includes our "Take Along" Price Guide (with pricing for cards from the late 1800s to today) and sample promotional trading cards. Our articles are written by collectors and hobby experts.
