Back to the mail bag, and I'll jump from sport-to-sport today with a bunch of new 2/14 adds, all courtesy of the most recent TMV mailer.
A relic helps Richard Hamilton to strengthen his 50+ card lead in the basketball portion of the collection. If that's not enough, here's 4 more, in varied degrees of shininess.Off to baseball, for an even briefer stay, as this was 1 of 2 additions to that part of the collection. I didn't recognize the release this was from - Shining Star seems like Panini's version of one of Topps generically named insert sets such as Stars of MLB. It looks to be some sort of Rewards exclusive card.
A plate is pretty much the only other option to add something lower numbered than that /10 of Yermin. That's Derek Norris of the Padres hiding behind the black ink. Alshon Jeffery joins the one-and-done and club in this post. Or the 1/3 and done club.At least Jadeveon got the full card experience.
Jim Kelly gets 3 new entries into the binder. The red entry, out of something called Legends Sports Memorabilia is slightly larger than the standard 2*3 card, meaning it is a little annoying to stack prior to being moved to the binders. You'll be seeing more of those once I get to the Mets/Jays content.
I could just as easily grouped that 4-in-1 sticker of with the Drew Bledsoe portion of the mailer, but since McNair's appearances were less than Bledsoe's, I opted to add him here.See! More Drew!I'm back to a single item for the finale, but if it is a plate, that makes it a nice way to end everything. Although the glory loses a little bit of glory by calling him DeMarcus as opposed to Tank.
But only a bit.
There you have it!
Nice stuff from Dennis as always. I like that Rip Hamilton relic in particular.
ReplyDeleteYou can blame me for the poorly-cut Legends Sports cards. I cut out a lot of the sheets and individual cards myself using a sliding paper-cutter (not a guillotine type) and wasn't all that great at it. You may be able to trim yours to fit into regular pages, though!
