O say, can you see
By the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed
At the twilight's last gleaming
Whose broad stripes and bright stars
Through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched
Were so gallantly streaming
And the rockets' red glare
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night
That our flag was still there
O say does that star-spangled
Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free
And the home of the brave
(All cards brought to you courtesy of my "anthemic" mini-collection.)
Happy 238th birthday, America!
Have a safe and happy Independence Day, everyone!

Nicely done!
I take off my cap to this post. Very nice.
Excellent.
Love the grand finale. I've always dug that card. Can still remember how excited I was (11 years old) to see my first full season as a fan resume with Fernando on the hill for the NL Stars.
Also, gotta mention that Thornton card, with him posing in the studio in anthemic fashion. That's the great thing about mini collections, there are always going to be oddball additions.
Awesome, awesome, awesome post! Hope you had a great Fourth, buddy!
Great mini collection! I'm impressed by how many you have. I've only come up with 4 so far as I've started sorting through my cards for my mini collections.
Happy 4th of July.
I think I only have the Ripken Jr. card. Those are rare cards to get.
Here we're going for 900 years ;)
