Winning

*afternoon cup of coffee is ready, it's time for some Cards Over Coffee*

I experienced a couple of wins recently.

For one, I won because I got to see the return of Jaybarkerfans Junk blog run by my longtime friend Wes make its return after 2828 days away or close to seven years away in other terms. Glad to see you back Wes and if you haven't checked out his blog yet, please do so. One of the best guys in this hobby!

 Now onto my other win. It has been awhile since I have won any from of contest, so when I saw a contest for a cool Griffey card being hosted by Nick Starn Art (@nickstartnart) on X I entered with fingers and eyes crossed hoping to win.

By now you already know, I was the winner of the Starn Art Character Illustrations print limited to 10 copies.

Not only is the art print card cool, but check out how he shipped it.

Box with emblem. You would think there is a fancy watch hidden within.

Tissue paper protected.

 

The card was inside of a wrapper. Like a sealed wrapper I had to open.

Inside....

It's a beaut Clark!

This will be a fun piece for my Griffey collection and can be a talked about one on how it was packaged to me. If only others took so this amount of time for their card shipping.

Thanks to Nick Start Art for the cool Griffey!

Wes back. New Griffey. Basketball starting to rev up. Half way done fall semester. I hope winning like this continues. Every win big or small still counts and needs to be celebrated.

Have you experienced any victories recently? Let me know in comments.
