3 Card Mail Day - all Ryan O'Reilly

[rvelligan]

So the first card is an eBay auction, which I won. This makes it #66 for my O'Reilly 1/1's.





This makes a rainbow!!!!















**** This isn't the best card of my mail today ****








So, we all know Ryan was traded during the NHL Draft. About 3 weeks before the season ended, I sent 2 cards TTM to get signed. Well, after the trade, I figured they were gone for good. Imagine my face upon opening the envelope in my handwriting this afternoon and finding the 2 best non-base cards I could get signed.

2012-13 Sereal KHL Rookie /299



2014-15 UD Canvas (My Favorite Card ever produced of his - 1 have 8 of them)





Thanks for looking and waiting for his first Buffao cards to be made.

Love the BD Rainbow, that is one of my favorites when put together. Congrats on the TTM returns, the Canvas looks great signed

Yup, great rainbow and nice to see a KHL card! Congrats on the TTM return - signatures look great

Nice rainbow! And I love the look of the Canvas card with the hard signed TTM auto.

Just curious on your connection with the player? What is your motivation to collect O'Reilly? Always interesting to hear why people collect certain players.

I bought an Eichel one for myself...but with the way me and jerseys go, a ROR one could very well be in my future

Almost got both, tax + shipping killed me though.

I am a Blackhawks and Avalanche fan. Weird combo, but it works for me. The Hawks were heating up hobby wise and Matt Duchene was my desired collecting choice, however his cards were high priced and Ryan caught my interest, especially after having a great opening month to his rookie season. My collection started and as of today, I own 4 game worn jerseys, 2 practice jerseys, 1 game used goal puck and my card collection is missing 17 cards to have a copy of each card. It's been fun and I am looking forward continuing with the Sabres collection. Thanks for asking.

What's a decent price to pay for a better than boring Cup RC? I've been thinking of getting one

If you can get a 3 color or better for $50-$65, that's a great price.

I've got a couple extra 4 colors. PM me and I'll send you scans when I'm not falling asleep.
