You might be surprised to learn that getting really trashed cards of a more recent vintage can be tough. They don't hold the same appeal as a trashed vintage card. 2 Superstar pitchers will make an appearance amongst all these old cards like Jim Lemon that almost seem to be carefully sanded down and gently twisted to crinkle up into some kind of work of art. Same just doesn't hold for Orel and especially Smoltz where it looks like you have to try and hurt the card to get them to this point (and sorry to who I'm not crediting for these; they came in a trade a while back and I didn't write it down) (JBozovsky was that you?).
I did write down BoRonsy when he sent me some really great newer stuff that totally had bad accidents and were not "antiqued" for my benefit.
