Skip's great big friggin' load of mail. PC, set chase & random cards (scan heavy)

[skip20]

Was hoping to get at least 3 major lots of mail in but so far have only received one - but there's still enough here to make some slower computers choke - so it's a pretty decent haul!

I'll start it out slow with some nice Dee Brown cards which capture what he was all about....

Love these Topps 1st Day Issues - but not so much the 'imposters' that followed with mere foil stamping!

Some Oscar....

Sports Legends /1000, Champions /500 and Champions Red /250

Some more Mash inserts and parallels (he doesn't have too many autos or patches available).

SPX /10,000 CLassics Wooden /19,930 Classics Green /9,900

...and yes, I do like my Topps Stadium Club, fax sigs and acetate cards! Beam Team ftw!

Creators Uncommon Refractor /1090, Showcase /125 and Masters Common Refractor

Some Kidd parallels...... I guess that thermal technology never really took off with sports cards huh?

Parallels /109 & /59 - how dare they compare him with Marcus Williams!!!!!!!!!!

The obligatory Game Used additions - few doubles in here which I picked up as part of a lot....

Jason Kidd...nothing too special!

Jamal - I'll just mash these altogether! - picked up a lot or two!

Floorin' it! I actually like the way they stamp the floor pieces...

Couple of doubles in here - Awesome Authentics /250

Jersey piece doesn't even sit in the card properly! Annoying!

Guess which one of these I like better? Hah hah - go the pinstripe!

Set Chase Progress

Famed Signatures - Lattin and Shed now give me all of the Texas Western sigs

David Lattin /890

Nevil Shed /899

Alex English /499

Dream Team Game Used - now only need Bird and Ewing. Checklist says there was Barkley and Laettner but I'm pretty sure they don't exist!

Clyde Drexler /650

Magic Johnson /750

Some of the nicer PC stuff.......

Q-Pon Certified auto jersey /585

Kidd Patch - bit of silver hidden from the scan which makes it 3 colours

The PC battle made me realise how few Mash patches I actually have and how hard they are to come by! So with that knowledge I went out and did something about it! Not the best patches in the world but they rare as hen's teeth!

Both are from 01 02 Fleer Exclusive

Time to get random!

Wally Szczerbiak Press Pass on card auto

Gerald Green Ultimate Signatures on card auto

Jayson WIlliams SOTT on card auto - if you haven't read his book 'Loose Balls' get a hold of it - entertaining read and a good insight into the NBA

Mark Eaton Topps Sigs /1029 - fear his beard! If you don't your shot is gonna end up in the fifth row!

Jay Williams SPA on card auto /1500 - he actually won the Oscar Robertson Trophy in 2002

Another dude to fear when driving the lane - who has also won the Oscar Robertson Trophy! It's also number 2/500 so sort of an ebay 1/1 based on draft position! :-P Oh, and more on card goodness!

Casspi Letterman /660

D-Will Classic Patch /25

D-Will Gold Stars Patch /50

Stevie Franchise Tag #49/50 - really interesting piece - meant to be a patch card but has a tag in it with some stitching up the top too! World's only tag patch! lol

Pint sized hero - Muggsy Bogues on card Autographics goodness. Just doesn't look right in the Raptors uni or number 14......

So picked this one up too - Hornets #1 - ahh, much better! On card Autographics ftw!

Patty Mills Rookie auto /699 - gotta fly the flag and represent!

Some more printing plates.....


The Raptor - So oddball just had to have it!

06 07 Fleer Ultra Yellow Printing Plate - Alexander Johnson

........but wait there's more!

06 07 Fleer Ultra Black Printing Plate - Alexander Johnson - if I complete this printing plate set I'll be stoked!

Oscar Robertson TTM / IP on card auto He does have a history of signing IP and TTM as 'Big O' and based on his other autos floating around I'm 99.9% sure it's legit. Definitely one for PSA grading / authenticity!

Epic sigs for a comparison - same loops, hitches and follow through....

Okay, that's it for now - couple more decent sized packages turning up soon so keep an eye out for them! Thanks for looking and comments always appreciated!

Huge mailday, with some nice stuff. The rarer early 2000s patches are great.

It's always good to have a decent sized package...

Really like some of those Mashburn GU cards - nice stuff

Always good to see the older cards which had some serious thought put into the design and concept unlike some of the recent offerings!

Huge mailday, with some nice stuff. The rarer early 2000s patches are great.

I think that 'Letter Perfect Patch' isn't even described as a patch on the card at all! I think back then a patch meant real breaks and stitching - none of this second rate piping stuff!

It's always good to have a decent sized package...

That's what she said......... ;-)

Holy Crap Skip, and that was just one lot you say.

Huge mailday Skip. Some great Mash pickups in there with sweet patches especially in that letter perfect.

Welcome to OCT stranger! Went kind of crazy in recent times laid up from work with injury (yes, that same injury) - had to do something and I like receiving mail and spent an inordinate amount of time online! When I find a lot up for sale I tend to grab them if there's minimal duplication...

Lovin the mash!

Means even more coming from a fellow Mash collector!

Love the Muggsy in #1!!!

Hornets uni makes all the difference right? If it weren't for LJ and Zo I dare say we'd be saying Muggsy who?

Huge mailday Skip. Some great Mash pickups in there with sweet patches especially in that letter perfect.

Not a big fan of the 'piping' patches but can't argue with the colours!

Yeah, go big or go home, right? heh heh Nobody better be hating on Wally! Dude could score!

Forgot Mash was on the Heat, doesn't look right like you say with Muggsy in raptors either.
Massive selection there mate, thanks for sharing

I'll start it out slow with some nice Dee Brown cards which capture what he was all about....

Love these Topps 1st Day Issues - but not so much the 'imposters' that followed with mere foil stamping!

You always have the best cards, I am still looking for a film card to get and the Action Packed card is great. It would have been good if they were able to make a complete NBA set around then. Dee Brown was very good early in his career, probably because Bird could pass the ball in Brown's rookie year and Brown could play point guard but didn't have to initiate the offense. I think I have the four versions of that Stadium Club card, or at least three of them, or maybe just two, as there may have been the common card, the First Day Issue, the Finals Super Team one and also the Frequent Flyer Upgrade.

The Raptor is certainly different, and a great card, and there needs to be a new set like Topps Total that has more players than current sets, and maybe some coaches and mascots too.

Natural born scoring machine on an all out defensive squad was never a good fit! Scoring dropped right off in his stint there - he didnt fit the system and Pat Riley didn't exactly make him the go to guy on offense either.....

Dee Brown was a classic tweener - PG body with SG skills, could never really run an offense full-time. I just remember his dunking antics which is basically what those 3 cards are all about.... Got somethign nice coming up in the next mailday or two which you should appreciate!

Yeah Q-Pons are slowly growing but missed out on not one but two of the cards you're thinking of.. D'oh!

Love the Mashburn's mate.

Mash was my original PC guy so getting any of his cards reminds me what it was like back in the day - overpaying for inserts and other great memories like that! lol

boom! fricken massive mailday!! love the mashburns and sick IP auto of the big o!

Cheers Slobs just waiting for the next group PSA submission to get it authenticated.... Instant value add! IP / TTM autos aren't for the faint hearted but if all goes well can pick up legit stuff veeeeeeeeery cheaply!
