Pettitte Mailday
While I collect mostly Jeter and Kouzmanoff, there are a few players who still hold a nice little soft spot in my heart and know exactly how to dig into my wallet.
So one day last week I decided to look for some Andy Pettitte cards on eBay.
I am thrilled with my gains. My boyfriend just rolls his eyes at me.
Here are the results:
A nice litte red (brown? maroon?) jersey to go with the Astros.
This is my favorite. It’s how I always picture him when I think about him — in pinstripes. Plus, I like the stripe in the card, even if it is on the edge.
This is a good looking card as well I do enjoy the Allen & Ginter designs with the mini cards inside the cellophane thingy.
The other three cards I won in a Pettitte jersey lot. This last card I got in a 21-card lot of Pettitte cards. This was the only spicey (game-used) card in the mix. The other cards, I put in my binder to add to my humble card collection.

Ahhhhhh, so you’re the one bidding against me on Pettitte auctions! Nice looking acquisitions!
I think that Astro’s color is supposed to be brick red, as in the new stadium is build of bricks.
I like the Turkey Red card. I never saw one of those.
