Buzz buys a lot of stuff these days and for a few reasons, really. Sometimes it's just bargain-hunting, sometimes it's just something that strikes me. And other times it's a lot -- a group of things -- and that has happened enough lately I figured I'd try something different as a regularly appearing item. Sometimes my lots will be wins, sometimes they won't be ... but I'll let you decide.

This department will be an occasional series that will take a quick look at a game or gaming release with card elements -- essentially a breakdown of what's in a box, but not the typical kind of a Buzz Break. (Buzz isn't a gamer so this will just be what's in a box vs. gameplay analysis.) Maybe there's a box you'd want to see busted? Send Buzz an email at BlowoutBuzz@blowoutcards.com.

It's always that simple.

YourDozen.com is back with more free cardboard up for grabs to one lucky winner -- this time it's for Sunday spring training action as well as some Majority Rules questions. Those questions are simple -- whatever gets the most votes is the winning answer -- and we've sprinkled in those along with the traditional picks. The end result is still the same -- whomever has the most correct answers once the dust settles wins free cards.

You have until 1 p.m. on Sunday to get your picks in. (Do it now -- one of the tiebreakers is who entered first.) The prize remains a mystery item.

Did you get in on last week's action? Check the leaderboard and contact fish@blowoutcards.com to claim your prize if you're the winner.

How does it work? It's short and simple. Register and you'll get a dozen questions where your answers will be compiled and compared to others. Whomever gets the most correct gets the prize -- or at least a shot at it if there's a tie.

The goal with YourDozen.com? Have a little fun and get free stuff into some of your hands.

Normally when it comes to items I've collected for this Collecting Game-used series what you'd see above is an image of an item in use -- definitive photo-matched proof that the piece I've found was in Player X's hands on X date ... or at least something close to that.

Not this time.

This bat does have a story to it, but it’s all anecdotal and it’s all still a mystery despite it being relatively modern. It’s not a piece that got stickering as it’s from before the time where the Oakland A's even bothered doing MLB Authentication ... not that this came via official team channels. (It didn’t.)

As you can see, this is a Nick Swisher Louisville Slugger and the eBay seller I landed it from last summer had some details -- and that’s what would typically be a starting point -- but I’ve struck out trying to photo-match anything. It happens, but this bat remains the real deal thanks to some trademark modifications made by the player and that model.

Keep reading to see the details.

THIS ONE IS, WELL, SUPER ...
The Item: Superman six-sheet (79-by-10 inch) movie poster (Columbia, 1948)
The Price: Bidding opens next week -- estimates as high as $20,000
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: This massive and iconic piece is a rare one that Heritage has sold a trio of times in recent decades with sales pushing as high as $35,850 back in 2018, which was an anniversary point for this film. "Kirk Alyn donned the cape as both Superman and his mild-mannered alter ego, Clark Kent, battling the sinister Spider Lady (Carol Forman) across 15 action-packed chapters filled with flight, flying bullets, and cliffhanger thrills,” reads the Heritage listing. “This scarce large-format poster -- one of only a few known -- captures the excitement of that landmark cinematic moment. Carefully applied airbrushing, touchup, and replacement have addressed edge and fold wear, creases, fold and crossfold separation, some tears, and a few chips. Owing to these efforts, it now presents quite well."
