Crazy Lindros Stick Coincidence

[joel88]

It's always cool to know where a Jersey/Emblem/Number swatch on cool card comes from especially with the unique swatches. I really like the BAP / ITG All Star memorabilia cards because you even know the game the jersey was worn in.

For example this 02-03 BAP Memorabilia Emblem is clearly the "2" in the "2000 NHL" Emblem on the 2000 All Star Jersey.

Now a few months ago I landed this beauty from the incredibly hard to find 97-98 Lindros Collection. It is the Stick card with 3CLR and an "EL" on it. I had no idea where the piece was from but it is "EL" for Eric Lindros so it was that much nicer.

Fast forward to last night and I'm re-hanging one of my Lindros posters when I notice out of the corner of my eye the Bauer "Mirco-Feel" logo on the stick in the poster. I quickly grabed the card to confirm that it is indeed the "EL" from "Feel" not Eric Lindros, but it is still pretty cool to know where exactly the stick pieces comes from.

This is the poster. I need to get a better image as it's almost impossible to see in this picture but it's there.

Very cool. It's neat to photmatch card pieces for sure. Chris (vegaspuck) used to photomatch gamers (jerseys and sticks) fairly well too.

I've also seen guys photomatch gamers which is pretty cool.

I just find with Stick pieces that there are so many different sticks that get used that it's hard to pinpoint exactly which model/style it comes from.

I have more nice stick pieces.
Even this one with part of the "Made in / Fabrique Au Canada" wording is still almost impossible to tell which stick it came from.
