So 2012 Spring Training has started and pictures are starting to come in from various sources. Last year I compiled a 55 card set of custom cards of Royals that were in spring training and it got me very excited for the year. I plan to do the same. In fact, I have re-designed 2012 Topps already and made a logo to put on each card commemorating that it is the spring training set (something I didn’t do last year.) I will spend today compiling cards and start posting at least one per day until opening day most likely. It looks like the Royals have about 58 players in camp so I would like to get about a 50 card set this year as well. I will get as many cards as I can. Opening Day is only 25 days away so many days will have 2-3 cards posted hopefully. I don’t know how much of value I have to say about the players but I might write about many of the cards I post.
A word about the logo: Obviously it is based on the 2012 Royals All-Star Game logo, almost the same in fact. I re-created it and have changed the wording from “ALL-STAR GAME” to “SPRING TRAINING” and replaced the MLB logo with a Royals logo. There are a couple other very small differences but they really aren’t worth mentioning. I think the logo looks good and will work well with this set. It’s time to get excited! Baseball season is here!
