I had no idea what direction to go with today's post. Do I talk about Twitter and how helpful that has been towards my collection? Do I talk about the friendships I have made in the hobby? Discussion on trades and their impact in my collecting process this year with my financial situation? Do I turn this to a Finished Cup post? Or do I simply just say Wow and go from there.
I went with the latter.
Wow was the only reaction I could have when I got a PWE in the mail from Twitter pal, @mcfarm21.
*risks taking a gulp trying not to choke when looking at the cards again*
Rick saw my Cards Over Coffee Unfinished Cup post of 1995 Topps Air Raid and looked in his collection to see if he had my missing piece.
Which he did. I wasn't surprised though as he has a lot of great 90's inserts.
The back of the card. What are the odds the last card I needed was the last card in the set? I didn't even think about that until this post.
This is why I said this post could have become a Finished Cup post. But, I couldn't do that. He had snuck another surprise in there with this card.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
Rick has known for a while I have wanted this card from him for my Hall Of Famer/90's autograph collection and he just snuck that in there.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
Can't believe he did that!
Thanks again Rick for this mail day. Finishing off a set and a huge autograph need on my Hall Of Fame list is HUGE and I am overly happy and appreciative for it.
