It's been a while since my last mail day, so I thought I'd share some of the more significant cards to enter my collection in the last few months.

A huge thanks to Matt (Shawn Bradley Fan) - without his help most of this could not be possible.

A couple of nice Worthy autos to add to the collection:






A partial set...JP has beat me to the 1/1s, so this will have to do for now:


Loving the Flawless offer...here are a few of the Worthys from that set:






One of my favourite pick ups - a beautiful Immaculate patch auto:


Acquired via an interesting trade - a nice Worthy 1/1 Totally Certified auto:


Now for many years I have chased the Worthy auto and floor card from the Lakers Master Collection...I finally decided to pick up a sealed box to see if I could hit one of these cards. I have always wanted this box as a huge Lakers fan, and the quality of this set did not disappoint. It's a stunning wooden box, felt lined with laser engraving:





This beautifully crafted wooden box holds a set of 'common' cards:


And a full set of game used cards (containing a very early Kobe and Byron Scott's only gu card):

And a warm up gu card from the 1972 All Star Game worn by the GOAT - Wilt Chamberlain:

Each box has a floor card containing a piece of the Fabulous Forum numbered to 50...a truly magical card to any hardcore Lakers fan. With names like West, Magic, Baylor, Kareem, you can't hit a bad card with this one...but it was the Worthy I was after. Although disappointed when I saw it wasn't Worthy, I couldn't be disappointed to pull the best card in this subset...again, the GOAT:

Finally, each box contains a sealed Mystery Pack...containing an auto and gu/floor from all the Laker legends. Hoping for the /42 Worthy, again I missed out, but pulled the best card available to a Laker fan (the low numbered Kobe autos aside). Presenting arguably the greatest Laker ever:

And here is the set all together:


A couple of days after the box arrived, both the Worthy auto and floor card appeared on the 'Bay (Murphy's Law!). Unfortunately I missed out on the auto (went for double what I thought it was worth), but I did land this one after all:


I could have posted the other 20+ Worthy cards (including a few lower end autos), but limited this post to just the big ones. Hope you enjoy looking at them half as much as I enjoy seeing them in my PC!
 
Nice mate - those floor cards are under-rated. Trying to land some more from the Boston Garden so can appreciate those Forum cards too.
 
WOW love everything Dale :wave::hearts: , your Lakers master collection was amazing !!! The Magic auto and the Wilt Floor are sick !!! Like you I love those Immaculate patch auto abd yours has a real nice patch :thumbsup:. Those Flawless are really really nice as well.
