Hi everyone,
I've been wanting to make this thread for what feels like a few years now. I'm sure I've tried doing so once or twice but never stuck with it. Sure enough, January 1st is around the corner, which means its the perfect time to lie to myself and believe I'll maintain this thread =)
To keep things brief, my collection habits have changed as my main PC's have dried up due to remaining cards being super rare. Because of that, I pivoted toward something I found more fun, which is searching for jersey numbered cards of players and sets I have interested in. This focus opened my horizons to another world of collecting and exposed me to sets across all sports that I never would have discovered otherwise.
Experience has taught me though that I do need to define what a jersey numbered card is though lol. A "Jersey Numbered" card is one whose FIRST HALF of the serial number matches the number the player is depicted wearing on the card itself. An example would be a Wayne Gretzky card number 99/299.
I'm not going to post all jersey numbered cards I own, but I will start it off with some of my best and favorite. If you're interested in seeing most of the jersey numbered cards I own across all sports, you're more than welcome to visit my Flickr linked below. You may also visit my Instagram which also has up to date posts of my newest pickups. I haven't gotten around to scanning my entire collection, so there's still a good amount of jersey numbered cards that aren't featured in either aforementioned platform. So if you're interested, you can check in from time to time.

As far as the players and sets I focus on, I've become a certifiable looney as there's just too many to list. But I'll just list the main players I try to focus on and a few sets. In general though, to keep things fresh and the wallet stressed, every season I add a player or two that is coming up with the Wings or in the league in general.
Main Players: Zetterberg, Datsyuk, Sedin Twins, Kopitar, Rick Nash, Spezza, Barkov, Aho, Filip Forsberg, Lucas Raymond, Moritz Seider & Quinton Byfield.
Sets: Any Year & Sports Pacific & Panini Titanium. My favorite being the 2000-01 Pacific Titanium Blue Parallel. Any Year OPC Platinum Seismic Gold. Any Year & Sport Donruss Elite Status & Aspirations (even during the Panini Years).
Without further ado, lets get it started. Here are some of my favorite and best.
And Please, Post your own! My goal of this thread is to be a celebration of such cards in the hobby.
