Month in Review - October 2011

As I mentioned in last month's post, I am trying to put together a compilation of my favorite card blog posts from the last month.  Here's the post for October.  It's only a few days late.  :-)  My son's 2nd birthday was this week, so there was some hubbub around that which kept me from posting earlier.

Without further ado, October 2011!

Post of the Month
Napkin Doon's New Nemesis -- As Lisa Simpson says, "Everybody needs a nemesis.  Sherlock Holmes had his Dr. Moriarty, Mountain Dew has its Mellow Yellow, even Maggie has that baby with the one eyebrow."  It looks like Napkin has found his.

Runner-Up
Create Your Own Moustachas Card -- Dayf and Eric teamed up for this one.  :-)

Other Greatness
Reading Between the Sheets -- Night Owl examines the color combinations and printed page layouts of the 1975 Topps set. 

The Marshall Fogel Collection -- Link to a video on NBC of a collector who is way past "hobby" territory. 

Steve Yeager -- Cardboard Gods isn't so much a trading card blog, as it is an autobiography with a trading card framework.  He's got a young kid, so I can relate to some of what he's talking about as he discusses parenting here.  He's got a really unique voice which I really like.

Fun with Cards -- Original Baseball Card Rap illustrated with card

The Best Liquorfractor -- What a great pull!! :-)

The Hierarchy -- Another Night Owl post -- how he organizes his cards by brand.  This looks like his "Brand Power Rankings" to me. 

The Danny Woodhead Collection -- DW Supercollector
