CFL Miscellany

Just some stuff that I either picked up cheaply because of e-pack, alongside an auto I pulled from an e-pack and an auto I traded for there. I'm showing them off in chronological order.

This was the pulled autograph, and a certain keeper. He doesn't hit my PCs (other than being an unsigned rookie with the Bills), but Solomon Elimimian was a defensive beast. Enough so that in 2014, he wasn't just named the league's top defensive player, but the most outstanding player overall. He retired in 2021, and was deservedly inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame.

Taking the hockey design for the CFL release made the bad even worse, since they didn't even bother to get a second photo for the smaller one on the front. With it being used again on the reverse, that's three f the same image per card.

That doesn't mean I don't want Ti-Cats cards from it.

Here are 4/5 Ti-Cats cards that were easy to miss, since they're sporting different uniforms in the photo. But they did get the equivalent of the O-Pee-Chee "now with" treatment, so of course they count on these gold parallel. And a punter card. 

Starting and ending with an autograph. After Brandon Banks left, Hamilton needed someone to reliably snag passes, and he's done quite well in the role. He did have autographs from his time with the Ravens at a reasonable price, but I opted to wait, and received this in a trade on the e-pack site. I can't recall what I gave up for it, but was just happy to add this. 

And if you end up with a card you want, the given cardboard doesn't matter.

There you have it!
