After a week of several important additions, I realized it has been a long while since I posted any new pieces to my PC. One card in particular I have been waiting a very long time to share so I may as well start with that one.


In 16-17 when it became clear that UpperDeck had acquired and was using an old orange and black all-star jsy for Yzerman i got pretty excited. :bliss: Growing up to those jsy's and seeing all the greats in them year after year they became my fav non :wings: jsy. So I did a little digging :stare: and suspected that the jsy UD was using was from the 1984 all star game which was Yzerman's Rookie year. 16-17 Premier confirmed that it was a jsy from that year and game. I knew I had to have an auto patch of Yzerman with some of that history. like I love old jsy's that have been used for cards, and to pin point when and where a piece of patch is from is one of the reasons i collect most patch cards.
Was really hoping that the Cup would have produced a Limited Logo Yzerman with patches from that jersey but they didn't (pretty disappointing)
However having this in hand a week after Premier was released lessened that disappointment :dance::dance::dance::beer:

Next up I felt like ripping some wax and a couple weeks ago so grabbed a couple boxes of SPA:



Jsy #'d inscription:dance::beer: don't really care that he has switched to #17

Next up this kid is pretty good.

And well never pulled an acetate RC before

Not bad i thought for a couple boxes.


Next was a couple eBay wins for two projects i'm putting together. First is a couple 02-03 Super Rookie tributes. love this set design and love getting these of the players i like. the Kunitz is the first three color i have seen and the Yzerman and Ovie are upgrades i got awhile ago.

And second is an addition to my 09-10 Premier Signings Triples set that i have been working on for years. not to many pop up any more so it's pretty slow going these days.
Happy to have added this one.

Next up is a major PC addition, when i got back into collecting a few years ago i really wanted to focus on hard signed triple and quad auto's of top ten players and one big one that i wanted was of Lemieux, Jagr, Francis. As far as i knew one did not exist, until my hunting online showed me a pic of a SP Authentic three's of them, was not even sure if it was actually produced, until last week when the first one i had seen was listed on eBay. I made sure to win it, even though the scan cut off a couple sides of the card so i didn't really know what condition the corners or edges where in.
Glad i took the chance, beauty of a card!:yess::yess::sniper:

it looks pretty good next to the oilers one from this set, wish UD had also made a Wings Three that year of Yzerman, Fedorov, Shanny.


And finally the last addition, which I feel my fav of the post is the one above but this card combines to make something pretty wicked so extra marks there.

When i got my Yzerman Monumental auto patch i had really wanted to get the second half of the winged wheel, but never saw it until it fell into a friends PC from which i'm pretty sure it will never leave. So when i saw this pop up I felt it was a suitable substitute :laugh::laugh::D

Dude.......

These pickups are just nuts. Congrats on the Stevie Y Campbell jersey patch. Matching memorabilia swatches from specific moments in time is always pretty satisfying. So unreal.

Those tribute cards from Premier are also nice. Loved those cards, not to mention those sweet triple autos you snagged, including the one from OPC Premier. That set is so nice.

But man that winged wheel logo though. That's internet crashing stuff right there. Huge props to you for landing the 2nd half!

:beer:
 
Wow!! :whatthehell: That’s a show for the ages. Pinpointing when & where a patch is from is special, something I wish I could do more often, and that winged wheel logo is a sight to behold. You’ve certainly picked up some premium cards, thanks for sharing them.
 
Awesome show and tell there Sean!

Those two Monumental’s together like that looks amazing. It’s pretty hard to top two PC Cards like that!

I'd have to agree.

Although all of the :caps: Gr8 items ain't half bad either. :cheer:

hahaha thx buddy, the Rookie Yzerman jsy patch knowing where it is from really bumps it up the pc fav ladder so to speak. really wish card companies indicated where all the patches are from or what year.

Thx man, i am very fortunate to have been able to land those.:yes:

I love the Yzerman All-Stars auto patch :)

Very nice Yzerman. Cool connection to the jersey as well!

Wow. Wow. Wow. I wish I could be more creative with words..... Wow!

Thx guys!!! :thanks:

YIKES!!!

Those are nice...congrats!!! :beer:

Thx Curt!
 
awesome, awesome!! I want to get one of those Premier All-Star GU patch/autos - but have not been in the ballpark yet on bidding. Such a cool card. Not that the Monumental patches are anything to ignore! Yowza. Great stuff Sean.
 
Wow. This was awesome to see. That acetate YG is sweet.


Those booklets together are awesome!

Thank you :beer:
Wowowowowoow. I was contemplating scanning up my Yzerman PC, but I think maybe I'll just look at yours again, lol.

Dude scan em up and post it, totally want to see your Yzerman's!

Sensational! Great S&T! Message me if the Jost is available, thanks.

Thank you, but i'll probably be holding on to it. it may not be his jsy # anymore but it was his rookie jsy #, the one he wore the first time in the nhl so pretty special to me.

Wow what a show and tell for sure. Congrats

Thx! :)

Beauty cards! I'd have to go with Brian and say all of the :caps: representation are my favorites though!

Thanks man. figured i'd get a couple comments for you Caps fans ;)
