Herschel Hoard Seek of the Week 11/26/17

     2004 Playoff Honors Alma Mater Materials  #AM-35  Herschel Walker/ Shaun Alexander
     This week's "seek", is a 2004 Playoff Honors Alma Mater Materials AM-35.  It's a dual jersey swatch memorabilia card, featuring both Herschel, and Shaun Alexander, who went to Alabama.

     The single player card of this issue, featuring just Herschel, and a swatch from a Georgia jersey, is #AM-22.  That card is already in the Hoard.     The above image is courtesy of COMC.

Herschel Hoard Seek of the Week 11/19/17

                                       1994  Upper  Deck   Electric Gold  #262

                                       



       Every Sunday I will be listing a "Seek of the Week" card.  That is a Herschel Walker card that is not currently in the Herschel Hoard, and one that I have been chasing.

        Today's card is a 1994 Upper Deck Electric Gold #262 of Walker.  I have this card also listed in my top ten most wanted list at the top right of this blog.

         I have the base card, and the Electric Silver,  but so far the Gold version has eluded me.  The only difference is the coloring of the word electric at the bottom of the card front.  This version, as you would expect is gold colored.

          This card image is courtesy of www.comc.com.    That's check out my cards. com.  A wonderful site, from which I have bought many cards.  I thank them and heartily recommend the site for collectors.

1997 Score Reserve Collection #255




     Not in my top ten most wanted listed, but not far off.   It took a long time for this card to become available to me, and I'm pleased to add it to the Herschel Hoard.

      There are 6 cards in the 1997 Score set, which have the same image of Walker on the front.  The base card, hobby reserve, artist's proof, showcase, team collection and this card, which is just called reserve.

       They don't show up too often, and are usually pricey when they do.  As I've said previously, any time I can obtain a Walker card from his active playing days, which I don't already have, it's a great find.
