    2 Boxes of SP Authentic

    Stopped by the LCS after work to grab a couple boxes of the new SPA. Here are the main hits. Really like the SOTT design this year. I also hit a multi-colour Tom Wilson veteran patch auto /100 in a group break in which I had the Capitals. So overall not a bad release day.
