i was pretty happy when i found the bill russell shreveport swamprats card, and i was even more excited when i found his 1999 grandstand rancho cucamonga quakes/surfers card
that was because i didn't even know that it existed until a year or so ago. it didn't show up on the list i was using to catalog my russell cards. anyway, it's mine now and it helped me pretty much complete my post-dodger collection of the shortstop of the team of my youth.i'm including russell's albuquerque dukes cards in this pursuit mainly because i don't really collect dodger minor league issues as part of my dodger collection. here's russell's 1992 fleer procards card
and his 1992 skybox card
barring any other unknown cards, i think all i have left to chase are the various parallels of the 2001 topps devil rays team card - other than that my bill russell post-dodger want list is complete!
That's a pretty sweet accomplishment! Congratulations!
