...and to top it all off my first autos of these two 90s iconic bigmen. Alonzo and Shaq on card autos. Looks like the Shaq is serially numbered 1/200 (could be a 7?) but I'm claiming it as an ebay 1/1!

Thanks for looking folks - comments always appreciated, apologies for the novel and the low end 'bulk' but hey they all have a story behind them!
 
Really like the Bird Black diamond parallel as well as the Barry autos and the quad auto is awesome! Love the variety in your maildays!
 
Nice haul there Skip. The opening heading "FREEBIES" got me thinking about "Monster, Monster Garage" as this turned out to be a "Monster, Monster Mailday"
 
woah have some mail!

The J-Rich & Jamison patches are crazy and the 2 90's C's auto's are a nice addition. Loving the Timbug 1/1 too =D>
 
Skip: you really should have started this mailday with "Once upon a time....." :lol:

Awesome finish with the Shaq and the Hardaway 1/1 is a very nice find indeed.

Can only imagine how big your collection is becoming!
 
I always love you maildays - so much variety and cards I normally wouldn't come across. Congrats on the 1/1.

Thanks Jason - think I;ve identified another set of ebay 1/1s. Still remember Brent Barry in his Clippers gear soaring in from the FT line to throw one down!

Think you got just about every mailday-base covered here, very sweet selection mate :thumbsup:

Hmm, not quite - was a refractor free mailday!

sick looking shaq auto and very nice timbug 1/1... impressive mail skip

It's not just about the on card auto - it's the action photo shot of my early memories of him - just overpowering people and throwing down some nasty dunks!

Nice haul there Skip. The opening heading "FREEBIES" got me thinking about "Monster, Monster Garage" as this turned out to be a "Monster, Monster Mailday"

Should have used the Monster, Monster line when there's a classy Mashburn card to display! More like a monster, monster gesture! Appreciate it Garth!

How the frig did you get a Timmy 1/1... there's at least one fairly serious collector of his...

Better to be lucky than good I suppose! To answer your question I made a trade after a box break. If you know any serious Timmy collectors more than willing to part with it to get it into their PC. I thought these 1/1s were becoming more an more common with all the Panini / Donruss parallels in recent products.

Awesome stuff, nice 1/1 from the man with the killer crossover.

Always liked the Timbug - not just any killer crossover - the UTEP Twostep! Still remember the Warriors 'going out on a limb' to draft him at #14 - their head scout basically had to stake his reputation on that one pick!

Sick Jamison Jumbo patch and great toni kukoc auto. thanks for sharing.

Would've preferred the Kukoc auto in a Bulls uniform but I'll take it - haven't seen too many of his autos around!

All good stuff there (apart from the Hardaway of course!) but it is a one of one.

Thanks mate - any 1/1 is a good card - just seem to be picking up some of his stuff lately!

Great selection of stars/legends mailday, the dream team Admire gu look sick!!!

That gives me three from the set (I think) - Admiral, Mully and the Mailman. Such a nicely designed and iconic tribute to the Original Dream Team!

Awesome, jealous of the J-Rich!

They're sitting here waiting for you Tom - unfortunately he also has a place in my side PC as a former Dunk Champ!

woah have some mail!
The J-Rich & Jamison patches are crazy and the 2 90's C's auto's are a nice addition. Loving the Timbug 1/1 too =D>

Yeah, had a few things dropped off recently- lol I tend to have a wandering eye so end up with all sorts of stuff which detracts from the main PC. GF doesn't appreciate that wandering eye of mine either! lol

Skip: you really should have started this mailday with "Once upon a time....." :lol:
Awesome finish with the Shaq and the Hardaway 1/1 is a very nice find indeed.
Can only imagine how big your collection is becoming!

Yah, need to start offloading some stuff but seems like every card I get rid off is replaced by two more in its place! Major purchase imminent so the cards will have to get put onto the back-burner a bit.

I always love you maildays - so much variety and cards I normally wouldn't come across. Congrats on the 1/1.

Cheers mate - as they say 'variety is the spice of life'! Definitely keeps things fresh and interesting!
 
If anyone is entitled to comment on quality patches it's you mate! Means even more coming from a hardcore patch fanatic!
