    A month of new Osgoods (scan heavy)

    I've been away for a few years, and after tracking a bunch of cards I'd missed in that time, I've finally managed to get to within 70 cards of having every Osgood non-1/1 and non-card show (granted, I'll still grab those too!). Without any further ado, let's look at the pics of the cards I've...

    Did my first group break -- 2011-12 Artifacts

    Figured I'd try my first "Group Break".. Could get two randomized teams out of 28 for less than the price of a single box, and needed some trade bait for my missing Osgoods, so thought it would be fun. Ended up with Toronto and Vancouver.. Sweet! Nothing outstanding, but nice cards just the...

    This beauty is the Pinnacle of my 1997-98 cards

    I've been searching for this card for the better part of 12 years -- it definitely counts as a "white whale" for me. After TurcoCollector35 pointed it out to me here, I badgered and cajoled PenaltyMan until he was kind enough to give in and give it up. With all the crazed Beezer collectors out...

    He Shoots, He Saves redemption and some 1/1 fightin' goodness!

    Two cards came in today; both I have been anxiously waiting for. First off, is my Between the Pipes "He Shoots, He Saves" redemption card that I sent away for. This is the first time I've sent away for a HSHS redemption, and while I was HOPING it would net me the Osgood/Vernon/Hasek card (I...

    1 box of Between the Pipes

    Picked up a box of BTP for my (belated) birthday -- first box I've busted in 5 years (haven't even done a PACK in 3 years!). LOVE this product..
