Mail is trickling in from the last great hurrah in September. Gotta take it easy until Christmas! D'oh!
Up first - some set chase cards. These 5 boxtoppers take me over the 33% mark...but still along way to go! Hit me up if you have any folks.
Bosh, Gasol, Rondo, Mourning and C Hawkins all /349
Now another E-X Essential Credentials Rookie Auto for the set chase. Craig Smith /899 - thanks to AJ!
which will look good next to these....still need a lot more for the set though!
Now some relatively low end stuff which i simply liked the look of:
OJ Mayo Auto
Nash Bowman Elevation Dual Relic /49
Tiny Archibald on card auto /250 (love his sig - one of the best!) Unfortuantely there was no mention of the significant 'whiting' on the back of the card....ebay shenanigans!
Some sick Marburys care of AJ - all up for trade / sale. Had to get T-Wolves cards in the hands of their rightful owner! All autos are on card and the ultimate is /50. Fresh Ink hand serialled /400. Autofocus ftw!
Bit of Jerebko... /499
....and more Lettermen! Going for the entire alphabet! Stuckey /250 and Douglas /630
My fourth 1/1 care of AJ - she did me a favour in sending me this one so big shout out for that sensational gesture! Telfair Magenta Printing Plate
Now for the reallllly good stuff!
All salute the Admiral! Signature Shot Auto!
On card Autographics of the Legendary one! Larry Bird - sig is slightly faded but still a great card which goes straight into the PC!
........and Mr Championship himself! Bill Russell auto! Bit of an impulse buy which I kind of regret now. But great sig.
Now for something that gets credited towards both my PC and one of my set chases.....
Topps Treasury..............
Larry Bird............
All Rookie Team..............
with the big B-Easy...........
hand serialled 32/39 - one off a jersey numbered PC, set chase item!
which looks nice alongside these (and yes I realise there are two of the Bayless - some idiot sent me that instead of the Brandon Rush - could have got my money back but got it fairly cheap so decided to hang onto it!) If anyone has any of these let me know - need Rush, Alexander, Mayo and Rose.
Thanks for looking and to all of you on OCT who have helped me out - you know who you are! Comments always appreciated and if you can help me out with a set chase hit me up!
Man they really bombed those autographics didn't they... gorgeous cards, yet the player pic is too glossy for the signature..? Never seen a Larry before though and that's a nice haul of stuff for you.
I can't wait until my 'last hurrah' arrives in a week or two....
Thanks man, that Bowman set is definitely under-rated and at least Bill Russell autos have a pretty good 'floor price' even for the low end stuff. You in a buying mood? heh heh
Admiral is one of my all time faves - won the lot and one of the best all-round big men who could do it all. Not a PC player because one of my friends (who i no longer see) used to collect him.... heh

Good point - only seems to have gone slipping over the glossy pic. Should have used texta for on-card autos! My last major hurrah until Christmas - just a month and a bit to go!
