I have always been amazed at the amount of designs baseball card companies have to come up with, to keep producing new and different sets that are aesthetically pleasing. Here is an example of someone who ran out of ideas. Not Rusty Tillman, who was a good Mets outfield prospect at the time, but TCMA, who made so many different minor league and oddball sets that the well was bound to run dry sooner or later.

This is a list of the cards of this player that I had in my Mets collection before I transferred the ownership of said collection to another diligent and capable Mets fan. The cards that are listed in light gray print and struck through are cards that were sold for charity prior to my divestiture.  The cards listed in white text are the ones that still remained until that final deal.  Items listed in green I kept out of the deal, just so I'd have something to display in my office and den.  At the bottom and listed in orange text are cards that I picked up after the dealing was done, in order to maintain a certain continuity at this site; that is, so I'd have a card to show you at the top of the page, and maybe in the autographs and game-used areas.  If an orange card is struck through, it has also departed the collection.  I’m still accepting donations, should you feel so moved.  Contact me by following this link: NYMHall.
