Tag Team Quads 93/94
I have ALMOST officially finished with the hobby. I wanted to get a few particular cards, and then be done and dusted. Unfortunately, this paypal scam that is going on has postponed one of my potential purchases, so this isn't quite my last mailday ever, but probably the penultimate one. You have no idea how much I despise the state of the hobby nowadays.
So instead, it's time to show off my new goodies, and my Steven Adams collection. Apologies for the terrible photos.
Firstly, new Flawless. I have a bunch of patches from last year and wanted to grab a few from this year, but they aren't as good, so I just got these two:
I also wanted to see what all the fuss was about these super thick Sole of the Game cards..
Now to the Adams'
My Adams collection will consist of no sticker autos. And no event worn jersey or patch cards without an auto.
So we've got your basic Gold Standard RC
Next Day auto
Christmas Day patch
(to go with my Christmas Day game worn jersey)
I don't have a card to match this but it's his Rookie Challenge game worn jersey and shorts
And now the fun stuff...
Pairs:
NT International silver and gold
NT Kobe's All Rookie silver and gold
NT RPAs silver and gold
Silhouette standard and prime
Pairs were fun. How about some nice shiny stuff...
Crown Royale 1/1 RC
Flawless -
Silver RC
Red RC
Gold RC (the nicest one IMO)
Emerald RC
...
Yeah nah I don't have the Platinum. I want it though!
Group shot
"Oh man, I really wanted to see a rainbow"
Let me see what I can do...
Flawless patch silver
Red (shudder)
Gold
Emerald
...
PLATINUM yay!
Whew, that was fun.
Oh, that's right, I have another...
Immaculate RPA
Numbers acetate
...
LOGOMAN
"Didn't he say best of the old? Surely he wasn't talking about Tim Duncan..."
Quite correct.
I have the best of the old.
Something I've always wanted.
An absolutely legendary card.
Of a basketball pioneer.
Gotta be well centered.
And is.
Mmmm mmmm.
1948, that's a LONG time ago...
I know Wilt, I know...
The corners are a little rounded but the centering is great, and that's what matters most to me. A truly impressive card to hold, still can't believe I own one.[/URL]
