Part 2: Unexpected boxes of Sport Trading Cards (Where do they all come from?)

Reusing the Title image I made in Paint,

I've gone through so many cards and moved stacks from old, worn boxes to newer boxes. I have learned a lot doing research on Sports cards and their value. Gary Vaynerchuk has helped in some aspects but after going through three quarters of my 'newly' acquired collection I am ready for the listing to end.

Some of the cards laid out from a box

When moving the stacks into new boxes I put all the put together packs and tins together in one box

here's a look at the contents!

On the bottom you'll notice is a book! I found this at the very bottom of the box concealed by the sports cards! It still looks pretty good considering.

I found a box containing some cards in what I have referred to as 'Screw cases'. I am hoping the screws are to ensure the cards protection and not to contain anything sinister from escaping!

but now I have a list of all three of these boxes! It's been a tough week cataloguing them all but I can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel!

Here is the list I have compiled from the two brown boxes and the 2nd half of the black box going by Company, Abbreviated year, Player name, and Card number.:

Alas, not every card is pictured due to the sheer amount but I hope the list is clear enough! Thanks for reading and I hope you found the post interesting! Let me know if there are any cards you are interested in taking a closer look at, I'll try my best to find it amongst the pile and take a photo for you!
