First big Luongo S&T in a long while (SCAN HEAVY)

[Luongo Collector]

Finally getting time to be able to jump back in the hobby. Been a rough year for me and the little one. Lost my wife in April to a 3 year battle of cancer (32 years old). Finally getting life back on track and both of us are doing fine. Jorja even loves opening all the wax I buy and showing me the "good ones", so once again the hobby that brings us all the joy is continuing to do it for me and Jorja.

Anyway.... been picking up a lot more Luongo's lately. Was up to about 98% from 97-98 to 05-06, and when he got traded to Van I wasn't too concerned with chasing to completion. Since his return to Florida I have been picking up the nicer ones. For anyone that wants to see the 97-06 collection go to www.freewebs.com/chrisprior35. I am in the process of making a new site but the time is insane. Enjoy the new additions!!! Will do another S&T with the rest I have from 07 onward this week sometime.

First, a few 1/1's

Thanks for the look!!!

Great stuff Chris, loving the patchy goodness on those especially the Purple Artifacts, the All Star Skills and the Banner Year

Nice to see you jumping back into the hobby

All the best

I'm so glad you and Jorja are doing well. Something tells me she has a Bobby Lou Jersey ?

Fantastic Lou swag and great to see you back in the game

Congrats

I'm going to go through this post a few more times to enjoy these Lu cards some more Wow. Well done ! Nice website, too. I'll be checking this out as well.

Wow, what a collection! So many eye appealing and awesome looking cards. My favorite is the 1/1 shield card. Great show!

Hey man, really awesome Luongo collection! And glad to hear you are doing well after a tough year

All I can say is, happy Luongo is signing again! Too bad it's all Panthers and no Canucks

Hahah, can't win em all

Good luck!

Nice to see you back Chris. Real sorry about your wife, glad to hear you and Jorja are doing well. You have some incredible cards there. I never realized how great the Panthers game used pieces can be, they certainly rival the Black Hawks for coolness. The next time I head home I will message you and we can grab a coffee.

Sick cards wow!

Ridiculous cards, it's hard to pick a favorite.

If you need a hand with more US sellers who won't ship to you, let me know. Always happy to help.

Thanks for the replies. Still trying to figure out the next S&T. May do a show of all non GU/Auto from 97-98 to 05-06. Have those in a binder and only missing a handful of those!

Or may do a show with all the sickest patches. Or why choose, right??

 

[canucksfan77]

I recognize some of those.

Glad to see someone else collecting the best goalie of all time
