No extended monologue - will just get straight into it - Dream Team theme!

Kicking things off nice and slowly....

Magic Prizm - DT 1

Nice Bird Mini Poster - DT 1 (and my favourite coach of all time - Bill Fitch - and the guy who got me into card collecting)

A couple of guys from former Team USA efforts...

Thunder Dan Majerle Jersey Kings auto #10/99 (almost jersey #ed jersey kings!) from the infamous 1988 team that didn't 'win' Bronze but rather 'lost Gold'.

Joe Dumars #29/49 was cut from the 1984 team and played on the equally infamous Dream Team II at the World Championships in 1994.

..........and a Kobe auto too! For real this time!

















....it's in exchange for the redemption that I was waiting 13 months for! Kudos on the Panini CSM for getting onto this after I tweeted him, he apologised for the lengthy delay and said he could offer me a replacement Anthony Davis or Kobe auto. I aid I'd prefer a Kobe and preferably something on card and he came up with this.....





















2009-10 Prestigious Pros GU Auto #11/25!!!!!!!!!

Yes, the auto isn't perfect but I'm still happy with it! My first and only Kobe auto! Just goes to prove that good things come to those who wait! ....still waiting for Alyssa to return my calls though.

As always thanks for looking and comments are always appreciated as you know!
 
Some nice old stuff and odd balls there mate. Love the MJ auto, lol. The kobe is sick!

My one and only ever MJ and Kobe autos! ..the MJ auto even resembles a bit of the real MJ auto if you look at it long enough and really believe in it! :-P

Nice theme, those drexler autos are nice

Thanks mate, Glide has one of the nicer legible autos out there. Some Mash for the next mailday!

keep waiting lol

Will probably get my MJ auto first! hah hah

you know you gotta give those milano's a sniff yeah??

C'mon Slobs - gotta save those moment for for the Benchwarmer cards!!!!!! :-S
 
You are right, auto isn't perfect...better send the kobe my way ;) Good get.

Love the Mullin...I actually asked for that cut when I was a kid because of him. Right between my Pat Cash look and my Shane Warne do.
 
wow man sweet kobe...... im still waiting on a paul p totally green auto/5 .....they said i could get a replacement but im to scared they will ripe me off!:cry:

I hope you pick your women better than you do hairstyles! Although to be fair in the 90s it was all about the flattop - Mully, Guile (streetfighter), Dolph Lundgren....and you!

Nice pickups as always

Thanks Matt, definitely one of my nicer maildays!

Was the replacement for the quad auto booklet? Nice cards mate. Lovn the DT theme.

Yeah it was mate, they knew it wasn't even close to being redeemed and I think the guy just felt embarrassed I'd been waiting for so long already and had ignored my previous messages.... Seems like I lodged that request many years ago!

I think I fared well because of the fairly extreme waiting time and the fact they basically ignored my messages for several months. To be fair the CSM did act promptly once tweeted and did take into account my request for an on card auto. Whether it was worth waiting over a year for is somewhat debatable. All's well that ends well!
 
Awesome work on the Kobe auto Skip, and that MJ does look kinda real...through the bottom of a still full glass of whiskey.

And those calls are being made, problem is you girlfriend keeps on intercepting them
 
Awesome Skip ! Not really lucky with the Kobe auto maybe you will have more chance with Alyssa :D .

Always a great pleasure to watch your mailday my friend.;)

......what's a man without his dreams? Live in hope my friend, live in hope! I'm sure she's busy washing her again or something.... :rolleyes:

Of course...love my women with a flat top! :S lol

I hope you mean a flat top as in hairstyle?! ;-)

Thanks Tiphaine - you know she'd be lucky to have me! I'm not a Kobe fan either but still a good feeling to have an auto of his at long last. :-)

The Drexler Sig Shots and the Topps Mini Team Poster are the pics for me as well as the Kobe Ball Pieces!

Those mini team posters are impossible to find - I should have perhaps mentioned Bill Fitch is the #1 PC guy but not much of his stuff going around....

Nice pickups buddy, and MJ auto LOL :D

Such a card would be a conman's shilling dream on ebay - lol

Great pickups mate and nice kobe auto! The Milano is probably my favourite though!

She's everybody's favourite! ;-)
