A mail day I missed that I thought I'd shared

Forgot to put this little package I received up. This came from a good friend of mine who went above and beyond in this deal.

First off we'll kick it off with a couple of Totally Certified RC's.

Next comes a batch of RC's from the latest Prizm

Then onto some PC goodness. Way back when Shawn Kemp got traded to the Cavs in the "Jim McIlvaine stuffed the NBA landscape for good" trade, I made a decision to stop collecting Kemp cards that weren't in a Sonics uniform. Little did I know that when I came back to collecting, Shawn Kemp cards would be made again in Sonics uniform. Here are 2 new ones, one from Totally Certified and the other from Hoops. Not big ones, but nice to add just to remind me of the old days.

Then onto the newest addition to the Sonics 95-96 Finals Team auto set. I still stand by that even though this guy was in the twilight of his career when he played in Seattle, he was a very integral part. A nice Sam Pekins Court Kings Auto.

Finally comes a card that isn't PC, but is super sexy. This guy helped to completely tear the hearts out of Sonics fans when his Nuggets beat a heavily favoured Sonics in the first round.
A man mountain and with that finger wave, made blocking shots cool. Dikembe Mutombo...



Unfortunately, a Cunningham hat card that I won on ebay appears as if it will never show as the ebay seller has had some negative feedback about non arriving goods. But hopefully soon will be the following;

* A Cunningham NT RPA and some other Cunningham RC's
* A auto card to complete the starting 5, and from what I can find the lineup of the team, of the Sonics 95-96 team
* My very first use of COMC to get a couple more Cunningham's including another Cunningham Immaculate cap

Thanks for looking

Sweet Mutombo patch! Fantastic mailday as always.

Nice prizms and Perk auto and I'll wave a finger in support of a sweet Mount Mutombo patch any day of the week, but most of all I love me some Sonics era Kemp.

Awesome additions love the mutombo!

Kemp in any other uniform can't be considered the 'Reignman'! Big Smoove, most laconic looking 3 point shooter ever, it looked like he was throwing darts! Yes, that was a first round upset for the ages - first time in history #8 beat #1 if I recall correctly?

Agreed on the Reignman thought Dwayne. Perkins played like his nickname, in fact I remember a play during one of the 1996 Finals Series when he pulled up for a three on a break, then casually dumped it down to Payton for the layup. And yeah it was a #8 beating a #1 and you may be right on the first time. A shameful moment in Sonics basketball history.

very nice
