A "Banner" Mail Day

[Ironman Indy]

Today I found some very nice treats in my mailbox

I received a thank you gift from pmc336699 (Pat) for making all the custom Gabbys in his banner sig

And believe me a gift is an understatement

Generous? You be the judge...

First I want to show this card I got the other day that I tacked on to the end of my last mail thread

2001 Topps Reserve Logo Relic

from 27Leafs27 (Dan) in a trade we did for an Auto he needed

Thanks again Dan!

Second a card I purchased from HI member jc2newt

Thanks for the deal - card is awesome!

And now what Pat felt was a small thank you for making some custom cards

2001 Atomic Red

2003 PS In Crease Security

2001 Topps Star of the Game

2002 Pac Heads Up Inside the Numbers

2002 Topps Heritage Chrome Parallel /667

2002 Topps Hometown Heroes

I really like this card and have been meaning to track one down for awhile - now I don't have to


And now a card I had to look twice to be sure it was what it was

1982 Francis RC

This is actually nicer than the ones I have - what a nice gesture!


And now the 1st star - a card I have been meaning to pull the trigger on for awhile but couldn't afford the price...

2002 UD Memorable Seasons

This is one of the Top 20 Burkes you can get - and I can't believe Pat sent this to me for nothing!!

A very nice Monday Mail day!!

Thanks for the look and Pat you rock!!!

Great stuff Geoff. Very cool gesture by Pat, BTW I wouldn't say it was for nothing, people appreciate when others help them out with banners and such stuff.

 

[pmc336699]

You're very welcome!

Glad to hear they arrived safely, Geoff. It sure took long enough! It's cool to know that you were actually still looking for some of them. They have a better home now in your collection.

I really do appreciate the custom Gabbys. Some day I hope to print them, and get them signed. Until then they make a nice banner. Thanks again!

That's awesome....Way to go Pat!

I'm still asking....who is this Burke Guy????

Great mail Geoff

Geoff, nice looking mail haul there bud, kudos to Pat for the nice Burke's and Francis' cards.
I have to add a thank you here myself to my good buddy Jon (X-Head) for hooking me up with the Burke Relic in the first place, luckily I have another unique patch from that set. Nice landing a Memorable Seasons , they are going high these days.
BTW Geoff I got your package today, thanks a bunch for the extra's, needed the ASP and those customs rock.

Congrats and thanks.
Dan.

Geoff,

Excellent haul of goodies for the PC. That patch of Burkie is sweet. I love Francis' auto as well. Good on Pat for the hookup.

I have to say though, good on you as well for all the amazing work you do for everyone and their signatures, you are a truly classy guy, one of the nicest I have met to date in this hobby.

Geoff,

Congrats on the very nice additions and kudos to Pat for the "pay-back"

Awesome to hear another example of HI's Community Spirit

Thanks for all the comments, sure was a mail day I won't forget!

Gotta love H.I.

And Tuesday brought another treat in the mail - not enough for another mail post so I'll just add it in here

to go with my Quad I got last week

Interesting how each card has a black, white, green & brick red swatch - I like it!

Bit bittersweet as my man Burke retired officially today but I knew it was coming - still after 20 years of watching him play - it will be different for sure

Thanks again everyone for the look and kind words
Geoff
