Not many maildays happening over Easter so thought I'd scan up some stuff which hit my mailbox shortly before Thursday.......
Firstly bit thanks to Garth (postgsl - OCT's very own JO aficionado) who sent me these freebies in an Oscar Robertson TT tin as well as something else which will feature later on in this post. Big shout out for the awesome gesture mate!
Some of the freebies
Oscar Robertson reprint and Topps Chrome and Stockton Bowman Chrome
Few SP Kidds - the guy just gets better with age! Topps /2007, SPA /499 and Arceologists /249 (this one now gives me base, numbered, jersey and patch versions)
The Admiral
Soooo close to being a PC guy but still like to pick up a few of his cards when I can.
Dual Game Materials
3 Star Swatch /125 - Big Fundamental, Admiral and the Iceman - 3 generations of Spurs superstars... Nice!
Something random which caught my eye.....
Pruitt / Sessions SPX Dual Scripts #42/50
Mr Playoffs - Kidd PC add
Bowman triple relics #7/50
Couple Lettermen and a Numberman
Love my lettermen chases - always keeps things interesting...
Robin Lopez Hot Prospects
Jeff Teague Threads /660
Hilton Armstrong By the Number #50/50 - ebay 1 / 1 - not that I really care about such things....
Mash Memories
Coming up are a few PC Mash cards but first is a copy of the February 1994 Beckett (crikey they were thin magazines back then!) which first got me starting Jamal Mashburn after reading the feature spread about him. Oriignal Beckett has been long gone so decided to get a new one to replace it.
Jamal Mashburn IP auto - cheap price and nobody went near it - but I'm 99.9% sure it's legit and feel like I picked myself up a bargain.
Now quite possibly the nicest thing that's happened to me in my many years of card collecting.... Again it was Garth (postgsl) who decided to hook me up with this little beauty from back in the day which is better than my original and upgraded versions! It's also hand serialled /2500 and slabbed in so much material it would make Han Solo jealous! Thanks again Garth!
More 90s memories
Brother is a huge Celtics fan and picked this up for his birthday because he used be a huge fan of 'Employee No. 8'. Great advert....YouTube - antoine walker employee number 8 adidas commercial Used to be a gun player too!
Not UDA or PSA but it's only Antoine and picked it up for less than the cost of a new I/O basketball anyway!
Now for one of the better PC cards in my unwieldy collection....
It really does speak for itself so gaze your eyes upon this little pearler!
[hide]
....but wait, for those of you not familiar with this particular product it gets better!
[hide]
'Big O' auto numbered 10/15!!!!! Admittedly not the full sig which carries the premium but still one of the nicer adds in recent times.
As always, thanks for looking and comments always appreciated. Enjoy the easter break and playoff basketball!
