Few decent cards in this lot but will start off with the normal lowish end garden variety stuff....
Up first one for the Court Kings Boxtopper chase... Bob Cousy /349. Another 2 incoming so that'll get me to exactly halfway. Incidentally there was bad blood between the Big O and Bob Cousy when he came out of retirment to become a player coach. The bad blood between the two resulted in Oscar's trade to Milwaukee and the Championship...
Stockton Membership GU #55/250
Don't know who this bloke is or what he happened to achieve - his UNC teams had a pretty average record as far as I can see! But check out the nickname - Skippy W! Just had to have it!
The following Celtic gems are from Shane (evilhomer) - cracking cards!
Pistol Pete Maravich - Elevation Relics #75/79 - my only decent card of this guy, think an auto is well out of my range so this is a nice addition! Trying to get at least a GU or auto of each of the top 50 of all time
Paul Pierce Fabric reflections #2/5!
I'm a sucker for a good inscription.....
Paul Pierce Contemporary Caption - 'Celtic Pride'. Sick looking card, Topps really pulled out some top shelf stuff when they really put their mind to it! Understated and classy look.
Bill Walton Inkcredible Inkscriptions #68/100 - 'Celtics Champs '86' Think i mentioned that fact in my last mailday thread too! Big sig and big inscription - killer card!
The Bird PC has been a bit quiet of late - but was stoked to come across this gem!
Bird / Parish Trilogy 1-2 Combo Dual Auto
Big fan of acetate cards, on card autos and of course the kick ass unbridled Larry Bird sig - probably the nicest Bird sig I've seen - big, well centred and a real attention getter! Numbered 44/50 too... Definitely cracked top 5 in the PC!
So what tops a Larry Bird auto?
How about a Larry Bird Chrome Refractor Auto #11/20?
It's a real little GEM!

Thanks for looking folks, comments always appreciated. Nothing big due anytime soon but making some progress on a couple of set chases!
