just bought my first Beckett Magazine since…probably 3 or 4 years ago.

Beckett Baseball

I just really haven’t had the need for one, and this one was found at a flea market for 50 cents. I guess it’s a couple months old is why the guy was selling it. Fine with me, it’s the March 2010 issue, new enough for me – I just wanted to flip through the pages for nostalgic purposes, because I remember from around 1990-1995, I couldn’t wait for each months Beckett to come out so I could read it from cover to cover.

Some thoughts from this one:

Still has pretty good articles. I’m just not very into the modern cards and players. I like pre-1996 stuff or at least sets with pre-1996 players. I honestly had no idea who Bryce Harper was until now. Credit to Beckett for putting me in the know. Maybe I should start reading card forums again on a regular basis.

The “Topps Unique” Bat Knob set looks cool, but I don’t think I’ll be buying any.

They still have a “Hot List”…that’s cool…and Andre Dawsons rookie is ranked #10 on the hot list..that’s cool too.

A great buy for just 50 cents. If I were more into modern stuff, maybe I’d buy one more often…and maybe one day I will get into more modern stuff.
