Always sad when the legends of my youth pass on. Definitely way too soon.

I am not even 100% sure what this card is...

RIP to this card also - great packing by the crew trying to fit in a team bag

I always thought this was an amazing idea

I have quite a few Mt Mutombo autos - most of which haven't been scanned in yet... For better or worse all of them are pre his HOF inscription. Here's the one that is scanned in... Quite a fitting card actually.

How far behind are you in scanning? Like what number of cards are we talking ?

As a representative sample, I just double chekced my Mutombo autos - there;s another 8 yet to be scanned in....including NT and the like.

Just to be clear, they were all scanned in at one point, then Photobucket got greedy and held my bucket at ransom with crazy fees. Was a soul destroying moment to be honest knowing how much tiem and effort went into cropping, scanning and importing etc... Doing it all again is just a gut wrenching experience.

This reminds me of a warning I was given at an online marketing seminar years ago in the days of everyone building their business marketing through Facebook and Instagram (does that still happen?).

The warning was not to neglect your own website because as great as social media platforms were for marketing and sales, you did not own anything you put there and one day the platform could decide to change the rules and suddenly you could loose access to your customer base.

Sounds like image hosting may have offered similar risks unfortunately.
