Hey all,

First some recent Mo/Stars Mail:

Forgot how small some of the swatches were on early ultimate cards

Really enjoy these two Modano's I think they are both from the alternate "A" on his jersey. Big thanks to Smashy 77 (Annie) for the scripted swatches.

Picked up the Larsen at MLS trade night and the Kipper at the Bossa show:

Spent most of my time at the show hanging out at Gomaz's (Jeremy) table...check out his post for some awesome FW auto patches. I manged to get these sweet cards from him:

and back:

Lastly, Jeremy was kind enough to point me in the direction of this card..acquired from a private collector (Jim I believe?)

Super happy to have worked out a deal on this card and thanks again to the seller!

Well, thanks for sitting through this and hope you enjoyed it.

Very nice cards! I've had my eye on that noble numbers of Jeremy's for a bit... I just couldn't justify buying it with that guy on the back of the card. haha. wned: Never liked him and never will.
Anyway, congrats on some sweet pick ups!

Beautiful pickup for sure ... I'm obviously talking about Willa Ford. But the cards are nice as well.

Very nice pickups. Lots of sweet patches!

Great pickups Justin. That Modano 5/5 is just killer. Glad you were able to get it.

Thanks everyone!

I know what you mean Lu, he will always be an Oiler to me!

It's not so much that he was an oiler... it's more that he really REALLY sucked when he was with the Stars. I remember seeing him live in a game in buffalo in 05-06... and he was the most useless player on the ice. Could barely skate... was moving like a snail...no effort on any shift. It was actually quite disgusting. Maybe he was having a bad day/game.. but yuck. haha. Sorry for the rant... Still sweet sweet card. somewhat jealous here! haha.

Was that after his big leg injury? I can't remember....
