20 Lettermen, 3 completions and some festive season freebies...

[skip20]

Merry Christmas and all that jazz - think my present to self is still in the US postal system somewhere.

First up are some freebies from Can't Fly and Siladee....


The Freebies
Upper Deck Rising Stars #01314 /5000

Mashburn, Kidd and some other scrubs called Penny, C-Web, Big Dog and Nick the Quick.... Thank's again Dave!

Got this from Siladee - which means I now have 3 of these Membership patches. Contemplateing set chase..... I know some of these are really low numbered so might not get going just yet....

David West #35/49 - another great Hornets patch!

Just the one on card auto....
Tim Hardaway Golden Age #40/99 - sweet on card auto!

The Lettermen

Thus begins the long Pondexter chase......it all starts with a TO - lol Both /299 with nice clear autos.

My First Letterman Completion!

I received the Panini Threads 'C' /630 for Demarre Carroll....

Which goes with a couple of Ls...

...and 'ARRO'

Which gives me CARROLL! First Letterman chase completion - great feeling!



Hilton Armstrong SP Authentic By The Numbers - never expected to have so many in my collection but I just seem to keep finding them!


SP Authentic - By The Numbers - Rookie Year 2006-07 - all numbered /50

I already had the '20'......

...then I managed to pick up the '0', '0' and '6' which means I just need the '7' for the completion!

Which goes well with these pickups too......


Pickup #1

SP Authentic - By The Numbers - Career Points 176 - all numbered /75

Pickup #2
[hide]SP Authentic - By The Numbers - Jersey Number 12 - both numbered /25

Okay - that's it for now - nothing too crash hot - but pretty pleased with the Armstrong sets and Carroll completion!

As always, thanks for looking and comments are always appreciated - good, bad or otherwise!

Cheer Nick, thought you might like Timmy....not so convinced on the Gold Standard design, but I think I like it!

Nice completions on the letterman and good luck with the pondexter chase!

Cheers, not a big name - but I did like Carroll when he was a Mizzou Tiger with that frantic helter skelter pressing, trapping D! Just pleased to have finally chased one down!

Love those mini set completions too - always a satisfying feeling to knock something off!

I do like your tim hardaway pick up!

Yeah, I kind of probably over-hyped it huh? lol Oh well, I'm happy with it!

Did you see Quincy got traded?

Not much top flight stuff in there for you G, but yeah, not a big fan of the trade - similar game to Sam Young and probably stuck behind him in the rotation - and Xavier Henry and Tony Allen!

...at least he strutted his stuff in summer league! Go the Q-Pon!

Not the best players in the world, but chasing stuff down is always fun... Any Timbug auto I don't have is always a nice add!

great addditions there matey and it is always fun to complete a letterman set

Not quite as hard as 'Ellington' but Pondexter is going to be a real bugger to complete!

Well doe on the sweet pickups

Cheers mate, lined up side by side they are actually quite impressive!

Good job on the 'CARROLL' Skip.
The Timmy auto is very nice too.

I actually remember being impressed by Carroll in college - led the Mizzou trap, crashed the boards and hustled on offense too - had so much energy and got around the court like a bumblebee!
