Dodger Cardboard & Other Random Finds

Couple of trade packages from reddit as well as a lone 1986 Topps TTM return. Let's see what we got. Starting this thing off with this 2019 Stadium Club Black Parallel Pee Wee Reese.

My great-aunt knew I liked baseball and slid a pack of 1986 Topps into her grocery cart at the store one day. When we returned home, she surprised me with them. To say I was excited would be an understatement. Every week from then on, my great-aunt would buy me a couple of packs and I would save all my money through the week and get packs of my own.
