Parkhurst Champs was short on Boss but extended an Orr!

[Bossman22]

Headed to the local sunday flea haunt once again here in St John's with my pal Geoff (Ironman Indy) to survey the wares. Headed around the room to have a gander but returned to the usual vendor (that would be Carter) and decided to open a solitary pack of Parkhurst Champs after seeing Geoff tear into a pack. Bottom right of the box is where I plunged my trawling hand into the murk of base cards and the like. But wait! As I tear open the package and reel in my catch I notice the matte finish of a middle card..signifying an autograph insert! I'm hoping for a Mike Bossy auto (but expecting Tony Twist..no disrespect to the Twist) as he's eluded me time and time again...and well again! Don't feel too bad for me..it wasn't any Dynasty Islander.

Despite it not being Mr Bossy a slow reveal shows a familiar hairstyle that can only belong to.....a consolation prize beyond compare...

Number 4...Bobby Orr!!!:dance:

Thanks! I was certainly floored by this pull. I mentioned how I was trawling for the auto version of Mike Bossy in the Parkhurst Champs but Geoff managed to pull a mini Bossy greenback and generously donated it to my Bossy collection! So all in all it was a pretty good haul at the sunday flea market!
