Nothin' But The Hits!

My third and final post of local card show goodies will be of the autos and relics from the $2 bin. I'm just going to go in the order the images upload.
A nice combination platter starts the buffet of hits. A relic and a silver signature auto. Gilbert Brulé is probably the only hockey player who has a google autocomplete with Bono as one of the options, so that makes this a little more interesting that most.
It may be a Vault buyback, but Draper's a nice auto to get for someone who collected in the 90s.
Although this is a plain white relic, it does also include a great photo of Lehtonen's Kill Bill paint job. Despite being a bland swatch, these particular parallels are limited to 29 copies. And this acts as a preview for the 2010 Between the Pipes breaks that I'll post this week.
While I'm not a Logan Couture super-collector, I couldn't pass on this great swatch for $2. Looking at the photo, this is obviously from the bottom of the sleeve.
Anybody want to swap this for a Cam Neely?
A glove relic? Please and thank you! $2 is more than acceptable for my first hockey glove piece and to give a spectacularly named team like the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles a place in my collection.
This will end with a Hall of Fame addition. There may be no bleu on this card, but I can't complain about the rouge et blanc.

There you have it!

  1. Barry Pederson for Cam Neely. Seems fair.

  4. I know Brule was a bust, but that sig swatch is sweet! And I like the Kill Bill mask on Kari. Nice finds!
