2 weeks of mail. Small side projects unveiled

Well this mailday is my first for a while. I have mentioned that things are slowing, and this is showing (at least to me).

First up is another to the Brewer chase:

#73/100:






And another to the Chirography chase:

Steve Nash:








This next couple of cards is from a childhood favourite. I was looking through a bunch of my old cards the other week and found a James Cotton Fleer 97/98 rookie and remembered how I had loved playing NBA Live 2000 with this guy and developing him. I decided I'd look up his checklist and see how many cards he had. He only has 8. Decided that since he'd be dirt cheap I'll see what I could find and I found 5 of the 8 with a seller on beckett, to go with my Fleer rookie = 6 of 8. Just gotta find the other 2 now.

So James Cotton makes an appearance!

Hoops 99/00 Common:


Hoops 97/98 Rookie:


Skybox Premium 97/98 Rookie (Might see if I can find a less damaged 1):

Cheers for the comments guys Think I might go for some kind of 97/98 fleer master set or something. There's not alot to them really and I have a bunch of packs on the way to break

Love the patch on the Brewer and the Nash auto looks great. Well done on nabbing another 2 RC printing plates.

Great variety of cards there Ben, amazing how you manage to maintain so many chases at the one time.

Sick patch on the Brewer.
