Remembered Member,
Hello everyone! Got a pretty interesting S&T to post this time. A couple of neat non-hockey card pickups, plus some of my best PC pickups so far this year. I guarantee that at least a few of these bad boys will reappear on my year-end S&T. Pretty pleased with these additions. So without further ado, pls enjoy the show! Comments always welcome!
So these next two pickups are special in their own right. Not hockey cards, which is rare for me, since hockey cards are my main collection.
Labatt NHL Original Six Bottles
These were a special addition to my overall general collection of collectibles. The long of the short is that they were given to me by the pure and simple generosity of a great HI member - cardboardkid, Paul. Very cool and generous guy. Thanks again Paul! Loving these bottles! For those of you who don't know him, he's the Dave Schultz master collector on HI. He's got an ongoing thread in the S&T section showcasing his amazing Schultz pickups/collection.
Taylor Hall Signed Puck with Upper Deck COA
This was another really cool addition to my collectibles. Got it before he won the Hart. Part of my prize for the HI contest not too long ago. Another big thanks to Greg, aka g-force who set this contest up. Couldn't be happier with this piece of memorabilia.
And now onto the hockey card pickups. Virtually all are PC, so not available.
Sharp looking card, and had to add a nice Dubinyk to my collection. Another great looking card from this year's SPA. A HI deal.
Had to add one of these to my collection. Very nice looking card. May very well end up on my year-end top ten S&T. A HI deal.
Added a couple more to my Karlsson YG hoard. One was from eBay, and the other from HI. I really like the PSA 9.
Just a cool random pickup that interested me. Neat little trio GU piece.
A HI deal.
Compliments of the eBay 15% off sale not too long ago. Had to add a nice Ovi rookie to the collection. Got it the night before he won the Cup. Possible year-end top ten pickup.
Might be my favorite Gillies rookie year card. Sweet patch and auto, and great SPA design once again. Year-end top ten? A HI pickup.
One of my favorite cards period! The YG's acetates are among the nicest in the hobby. Such an amazing looking card in-hand. Certain to be a top ten pickup at year's end.
Got this for a very good deal on eBay. Put in an offer on it and voila, I got it. The Bronze from this set are very, very hard to find. Only a hundred made of each player. Haven't had anything Brian Leetch for a very long time, so this is a cool addition. Also cool Leetch is in a Rangers uniform.
Needed to add another nice Laine BGS 9.5 to the collection, so I couldn't pass up his Canvas YG, in a BGS 9.5 slab. Great deal from eBay.
Very pleased with this random HI pickup. IMO, 2003/04 was a great "design-year" for SPA FW auto patches. Great to add a sweet Horton to the PC. I'll always remember how much of a beast he was for Boston in the playoffs the year they won the Cup.
Well that's all folks! Hope you enjoyed the show!
