Hey Aaron! Still slowly catching up, but that solitaire caught my eye immediately and is gorgeous!!!! Huge congrats on that beauty! Cheers, my friend! Paul

You know the most common email I get? Flickr notifying me that you added something haha! Great show as always.

Haha, thank you very much! I'll take that as a compliment Your Giacomin cards are top notch!!

I’m a bit behind on all of your new additions. I am so happy you have that HI-Lites card in your PC.

I also am a fan of that Rookie Breakouts signed card. Looks stunning.

Thanks, Scott! The HI-Lites card was one I wanted since I heard it was being made. Big shoutout to Dr. Brian Price on that card. Found it in a Facebook group (thanks to primetimepawich here on HI!) and was lucky to get it on the cheap. Always nice when that happens, especially for a 1/1!

Hey, thanks so much, Paul! I appreciate your kind words on my collection. Keep up the great work on yours!



Updated the collection tonight with a team-issued card that I had not seen before! Always nice when you can find out about things I still need for the collection and pick them up at the same time. Had to win a crazy bidding war, too. That part was surprising.

2011-2012 Buffalo Sabres Team Issued Oversized Photo Card #1 Jhonas Enroth

These Team-Issued Photo Cards were first handled out by Buffalo Sabres players at the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center on October 3, 2011 in Landstuhl, Germany.

This trip took place during the Buffalo Sabres' 2011 NHL Premiere Series in Europe to begin the 2011-12 regular season. Jhonas Enroth can be seen on the left-hand side with some of these photo cards of himself that he was giving out to fans that day.

Ahem

Love the newly-added team issue. The way cards are documented nowadays, you definitely don't expect modern issues to be under the radar. Team issues from the '80s? Now that's another story

Fixed it ! Thank you so much for the help!

I agree, team issued stuff can be super tough to track down. I can only imagine how hard they are from the 80's, etc. A whole other level!

The card with the photo, is absolutely amazing!!! What an incredible story!!! What an even more incredible card .. considering Enroth handed them out personally... you never cease to amaze Aaron!!! Cheers!! Paul!!

Holy crap... Aaron... I just got from Enroth’s tooth fairy ...his baby tooth... as this is probably the only thing your missing ... lol! Buddy I absolutely love seeing this collection progress!!! Cheers!! Paul!!

 

[creasecollector]

Thanks, everyone!

Updated the collection today with 3 more autographed cards! I've been on a bit of a roll with these in the later half of 2020 and into 2021. My goal is to acquire 1 signed version of every Enroth base and/or Insert card (plus rookies, when I see them). A surprisingly tough, challenging task that has been a fun 'collection within a collection' project so far.

Enjoy!

 

[Cardboardkid]

Wow!!!! I always love seeing your additions, and Aaron you never disappoint!!!! When a PC collector gets so many of his player’s cards ... and there’s only so many... buddy..your nailing it!!!! Amazing collection!!!! Cheers!!!!! Paul!!!

Snagged another Autographed base card today:

2015-16 O-Pee-Chee Base

You guys are the best. Thank you! :beer:

For those who haven't seen my recent thread, I updated the collection with arguably my biggest 'White Whale' for my Jhonas Enroth PC...

2009-2010 Upper Deck Fleer Ultra Ice Medallion Rookie #/25

I've been searching for this card for about 10 years, and it was rumoured at one point to not even exist. I managed to pickup 21 of the 25 Enroth Ice Medallions (yes, that's not a typo) to almost complete the full print run in one shot.

You can read more about this surprising and unlikely story on my blog, as I explain how rare these cards really are and potentially why these cards weren't seen for over a decade:

"21 'White Whales' Added In A Single Day?!"


I hope you all enjoy! :thumbsup:

Your collection deserves all the praise and then some. But, let me understand this; you have 21/25 of THE 25 of the Ice Medallion RCs???????

Ultra never got any love but should have. Great photos, plus the inserts were great. I LOVED opening 92/93 Ultra when I was a kid and hoping to get a Roenick subset!

 

[fourcolorswatch]

great collection man, always love watching it grow!

 

[Cardboardkid]

I have to also ask... you have 21 of the 25 ever produced... ?!? Holy crap Aaron you truly are the king of cards!!!! Huge huge congrats in that!!!! Cheers my friend, Paul!!!!

Back at it with another Game-Worn update! :dance:

The new piece to my Jhonas Enroth PC is a Game-Worn Buffalo Sabres Jersey.

What makes this piece special is that is was used in both the 2012-13 season, along with the 2013-14 season, too. This jersey was also worn during Enroth's 3rd Career NHL Shutout.

As you can see by the photo above, this Jersey was Tagged twice by the Sabres for the two seasons it was used in. I'm no expert, but I think it's quite 'rare' for a Modern jersey to be used in two different seasons, which I thought was very cool.

This jersey was worn by Enroth in the following games:

March 12th, 2013 vs New York Rangers (3-1 Win)
March 30th, 2013 vs Washington (Split, No Decision for Enroth)
April 13th, 2013 vs Philadelphia Flyers (3-0 Win, 3rd Career Shutout)
April 14th, 2013 vs Tampa Bay Lightning (3-1 Win)
April 19th, 2013 vs New York Rangers (8-4 Loss)
April 22nd, 2013 vs Winnipeg Jets (2-1 Loss)

September 21st, 2013 vs Toronto Maple Leafs (Preseason, 3-2 Shootout [15 Rounds] Loss)
September 25, 2013 vs Columbus Blue Jackets (Preseason, 4-1 Loss)

October 8th, 2013 vs Tampa Bay Lightning (Split Game, No Decision for Enroth)
November 2nd, 2013 vs Anaheim Ducks (6-3 Loss)

Now... onto the Photo-matches!
