This may be the most rewarding show and tell I have ever had. Little back story. In 2006 I sold some high end cards with the intent of acquiring my first Luongo 1/1. I scared together $800 and made the purchase. A few months later I got an offer to sell the card for $1400 and couldn't resist. My thought... "I can't own every 1/1 and I could use the cash to acquire loads of high end Luongo's I needed. I did that, and at the time I didn't regret it. Fast forward a few years and I had the chance to get the card back. I failed.

About 3 years ago I started adding 1/1's when I could and always thought about getting that first one back. Again, had a chance a few months ago and missed it again. This time, I was pissed.

Until today. Here it is, my first ever 1/1 back in my possession and to be locked away and never sold again!!! I am so pumped to get this card and because of the sentimental value may be the centre piece to my collection

One of the most satisfying days of my collecting journey. And brings me to a total of 63 1/1's
