Hi.
Did some horse trading at the Flea Market Sunday got some nice traders.
Took some down to the local Money Pit, Okanagan Sportscards & Comics, He had a box of 97/98 Bee Hive. So I traded for that, thinking I was gonna get a Gold from my wantlist. Didn't get any that I needed. Got a couple that were better then what I had.

Pulled this.....

Not for trade at this time. I will bring it to the market and get full book or close to it.
I know a guy who wants one...... lol. Will just see how bad.

I have pulled about 5 of these over the years and this is the nicest.
No lines, No chipping, just a nice looking card.

So since I haven't done a show and tell for a long time I thought I would.

Thanks for the looks and comments.

Have a great day.
John

Killer pull, one of my favourite cards!! Really smooth signature on that one too. Don't know how many they had him sign, but some of them seem like maybe his hand was getting a little tired.
 
I have opened a tonne of that stuff over the years looking for one. I think at one point, I had 5 of every player and still no Rocket.

Ah well.


Congrats on the pull.
 
Hi.
Like I said out of all the ones I have pulled this one is by far the best I have seen.
I cut a comic bag so when I put it in the sleeve it doesn't damage it. Kinda like a big penny sleeve.
The scan shows ruff edges on the bottom of the card. That is the comic bag.

I will put it in my show case at the Flea Market and see what the collectors have to say about it.

At this time it is NOT for sale or trade.

The auto is just mint that's great for you. For myself I don't know how I could get rid of it.


Thanks for the great comments people.

Have a great day.
John
