I didn't know what to think this morning when my mailman dropped off this large mail sack. The type I've never seen before Well it had my name on it so it must be for me but I didn't order anything from Chicago IL :-k
SOOO I open it up and its come surface mail from amazon.....OK.....:-k
Inside a find a box and inside that is possibly the best book ever!
EVER card pictured is a prime example and in psa graded form. Book is thick hard cover at least 40cm sq and nearly 400 pages in full gloss
These few weeks have been really tough, some of you may know I've lost one of my best mates in the fires at Kinglake and another friend up the road at St Andrews. Its been a pretty horrible time taking care of business and ringing friends to tell them is the worst. Also helping out a mate protect his house at Healsville which we saved but only after we got out of there and just left it to burn if it had to. We weren't losing any more mates for just a house.
Graham's act of kindness getting this for me really does make a difference and I'm not normally one to air my problems publicly online but at these times people really show their true colours and I wanted to publicly thank you G so you get the kudos
Just like my mates affected by the fires coming together at this point of time it shows how great the site we've built is when people think of others here and help out when they can.
Now for some pics of card goodness
Be patient as they take a while to upload. I recommend this book to any collector of the hobby for any sport. Its pretty easy to appreciate great cards regardless of what sport they are.
And for the record it takes to get to number #20 on the greatest cards off all time till we see the Jordan fleer RC. Mikan beats him to the title of best BBall card of all time.
