Odds and Ends

      Shown are four cards in the Herschel Hoard, which I've obtained over the past few months, but have not posted about. One is a relatively scarce, 2022 Panini Mosiac Red Wave, shown here:

          


          


          The Red Wave card is serial numbered to just 9. This example is #6, which can be seen in the upper left on the card back. If the image appears a bit washed out, it's because this is an encased, graded card. I don't usually buy these, but in this instance, it was the only condition I was able to find it in. The image is cropped to show just the card itself, rather than the case.

            The next three are all versions of the 2023 Panini Prizm Draft Picks set. Though I try to collect any Herschel Walker cards which I don't already have, the variations in some of Panini's sets are so slight, that it seems almost redundant when posting them individually. That being the case, I've grouped the three here. First is a Draft Picks Red:

          


          


        The Red version is serial numbered to 200, shown on the bottom of the card back.

               Next is the Purple Ice version:

                                


          

           These are numbered to 149.

          Finally, here is the Purple Prism card, which is numbered to 75:

               




          


          

           Many people complain about Panini and the fact that they have so many variations, but although they're not my absolute favorite cards to chase, I will pick them up if I have the opportunity.

2007 Press Pass Legends-Legendary Legacy Autographs Platinum #LL-HW

           



          



          Continuing my recent run of autographed Herschel Walker cards, here is a 2007 Legendary Legacy Platinum card, from the Press Pass Legends series.

           The Platinum subset has a checklist of 29 cards and each one is serial numbered to just 25. That serial number is boldly shown on the bottom of the card back. Another empty space filled in at the Herschel Hoard.

2022 Panini Prizm Sensational Signatures Green Scope # SS-HW

                


               


          I've been on a roll lately, regarding autographed cards of Herschel to add to the Hoard. I already have another one lined up to talk about next week, but before I get ahead of myself, this is a 2022 Panini Prizm Sensational Signatures card, in the Green Scope edition.

           I posted a previous version of the card from the Sensational Signatures set. That one was serial numbered to 50, the Green Scope is serial numbered to 25. There are at least five more versions out there, numbered at 35, 15, 10, 5 and 1. The serial number can be seen on the card back at the bottom of the photograph.

            This Green Scope edition has a 60-card checklist. Another sharp looking card of Walker during his Dallas days makes its way into the Herschel Hoard.
