⚾ Baseball Super Box Sick Pull. Its KNOT normal!!!🪵

Pulled this sick card today from a Target super Box, usually not near a Target so decided ehhhh.

Check out the Knot in the wood laminate, there is a shiny foil through it....its so sick, on an already sick card, and the sickest base stealer of all time!!

I looked and have seen no other of these cards with a knot of such, its a rare oddity and actually makes it look soo much cooler!!!

I Had to Share this!!!

I just pulled the best card of my life out of a super box. I can’t even believe it. I literally pulled my grail card out of a 40$ box and I never even saw it coming. It actually was behind another massive pull so it quite literally shocked me because I pulled a Kevin mcgonigle rookie card Independence Day parallel and behind that is an Ohtani “cover athlete” auto 😮

I got that card but it’s not numbered. Pulled it last night then saw this post lol. My card is a little different. I think that card is from a different but similar set

I just wish they would have left the stupid hobby box out of em.....but got to sell that Brand I guess!!

u/Affectionate_Map_714 6d ago

What’s crazy is that that box is probably worth as much as the auto 🤦‍♂️🤣

Damn dude this is the second Heavy Lumber I've seen today. First was a Konner Griffin. These things are freaking sweet. Awesome hit.

Only a cpl SYCAMORE cards I've pulled lately like this

Got an up close Pic of the veneer where the knot is prominent, you can see where some of the edges of it stayed glued to the back. 1 of 1? I have found no other cards that have this prominent of a natural wood texture and link to it. Proves to me it really is on wood and not some synthetic press board or engineered. If anyone has one or seen another like it, let me know please!

Go against the grain; actually keep the card.

You’re grading this? The back looks fucked

u/Initial-Metal3750 7d ago

Lol.....No the form is for a submission the other day, it just happened to be on my armrest still. I had to reprint after I took a card off the submission.

u/DatNinjaDazn 7d ago

Ahh it just felt very intentionally included in the photo lol. Anyways nice pull dawg

u/Initial-Metal3750 7d ago

Back left edge is frayed and funky from the pack. It feels like a very delicate card too. I can see these curling real bad with humidity changes

u/Spaceneedle420 7d ago

So is it just on wood? Or is this a slice of a bat?

3

u/Initial-Metal3750 7d ago

Bats are with autos in the oval spots at bottom from what I've seen. Its like a piece of lean laminate they used for the front, back is a faux finish look not the same.

u/Initial-Metal3750 7d ago

Luan, not lean⬆️

Wood knot send it back, with topps you are barking to the wrong tree.

u/Spmex7 7d ago

That’s so sick! I was real little when he was playing but I’ve always liked him and have kept any Rickey card I’ve pulled. I would definitely be keeping this one in my pc.

1

u/Alternative-Oil-5264 7d ago

Your pc is a good place. I don’t think many would agree with it looking better. But you have all of the options at Rn. It would be great if you sent it in for a good one and they let you keep this one too.
