The "I don't even know who or what I'm collecting anymore" mailday...

[skip20]

I'm not the most dedicated PC / set chase guy in the world and my eye does tend to wander to what I think are good looking pieces of cardboard... so the end results can be somewhat of a random mix. As per normal the non-PC stuff is up for grabs, so if you like something let me know! Anyhoo, without any more blabbing....

For those who like numbered cards, 90s inserts and refractor-ish stuff (all PC)

Jamal Mashburn Golden Signatures (they scan like a b*tch but look real good in hand)

Some Mash 90s inserts (those were the days!) - Thunder & Lightning, Lottery Prize and Beam Team. Big props to Topps and Skybox on those sets!

More Topps Finest magic - Stockton Star '85 reprint (note the 'unpeeled' finish, folks ;-))

Jason Kidd Topps Chrome /500 and Spotlight /49

My first Oscar Robertson X-fractor /199 - great looking card, not one of the most expensive by a long shot but my eye is always drawn to it!

One for the entry level GU collectors - pretty low numbered stuff actually....

Brook Lopez /149 and David Lee /100

Reggie Miller - don't see a lot of his GU stuff floating around actually so was pretty pleased to pick this up....

Couple nice ones for the patch lovers.......

Nate Robinson 19/25 (possible mini side PC for the dunk champs)

Rodney Carney 21/25 - sick double patch, the second one is definitely part of an 'A'

Jordan Hill Threads Letterman auto /700 - This now gives me H-I-L.... Just need another 'L'. If you have one let me know!

'Stick it to me' - some sticker autos of three very under-rated players IMO

Al Horford 'Authorization' (I really wish the Yanks could spell properly - lol)

Derrick Brown /649 - Followed this guy through college, very versatile game and hope he sticks in the league. How great is the card design and artwork? You can just feel the energy! Probably my fave Court Kings card and that is saying heaps!!!!!

Bargnani auto /49 - the big Italian still ain't getting the love from card collectors!

Bit of Die Cut goodness if you're into that sort of thing....

Jason Kidd All-Star - these cards DEFINE die cut!

A whole lotta TIMMY! The King of ankle breakers.....

GU Floor

Fleer Focus jersey - nice big bit of jersey for a change, they don't make GU like they used to!

58-59 Variation auto (have a double of this now...due to my poor out of date spreadsheeting)

Fleer Mystique on card auto goodness! That's how you do an auto card Panini!

SAGE auto hand serialled 12/130 (I also now have a double of this card too - but a nice problem to have- lol)

Wouldn't be a skip20 mailday with some 'Old School' cool

1969 Topps Lou Hudson RC - card is in awesome condition, feel like grading it. Average 'centering' has put me off but everything else is pristine!

1970 Topps Oscar Robertson - go the tallboys! This one is in awesome condition too and definitely feel the need for 'slabbing'.

1970 Topps Pat Riley RC! Didn't even intend to get this card but picked it up at an insanely good price given the condition. Slight surface and centering flaws but dang sharp corners and a true RC for one of the legends of the sport....

...but wait there's more!

This one is an ebay 1/1, patch-tacular, non sticker auto of a Championship winning Piston....... Oh yeah, and it's pretty um, Exquisite!

Rip Hamilton 1/15 Exquisite Scripted Swatches!!!!!!!!!! Nice way to end!

More random cards to follow soon! Thanks for looking and comments always appreciated.

Nice mix, I love old school inserts from when I was growing up.
I think the patch on the Carney is an N rather than an A though

 

[smc2910]

awesome assortment of stuff, good way to keep things fresh by moving around with pickups

hate to see your plate at an all you can eat buffet

 

[ratsdm]

Some great stuff there. good mix. I used to love Tim Hardaway but then when my man John Ameachi came out Tim Bug ruined it all with his stupid comments. I was really disappointed.

That Pat Riley RC is great, what a huge pick up

 

[OutlawNinja]

Love that old school stuff

 

[ozballer23]

Sweet hardaway pickups!

 

[postgsl]

hate to see your plate at an all you can eat buffet

I doubt you could see his plate

Varied assortment there Skip

 

[Verse1]

Nice mix there Skip, i love the Miller GU and Big O x-fractor. That Hardaway Fleer Mystique auto is a cracker too, been trying to pick up a nice auto of the master of the killer crossover for a while now

 

[Ersk]

Nice 90's stuff.

 

[loafic]

skip whatever it is that you are collecting, its a nice bunch of stuff... the rip is beaut, so is the riley and a cool lot of patches

Yeah. 90s had original card designs and concepts - probably the golden era for card innovation... I thought it was an N at first too but when you titl the card you can actually see that black trinagular piece is a closed off triangular bit.

Keepin' it fresh and real! Small plates can't stop me - just pile that stuff up high, like an archeological dig as you eat, never know what comprises the next layer!

Yeah, Timbug did stir up some controversey with 'that comment' but politics aside a truly inspirational PG on the court. Yeah, Pat Riley wasn't a sensational player but the great coaches seldom are. I wonder if coach cards count as RCs in their own right?

Love that old school stuff

I think being a Wilkins collector you can remember in some of the glory days too! ;-)

Sweet hardaway pickups!

Cheers mate - better of the two Hardaways too... ;-)

I doubt you could see his plate
Varied assortment there Skip

...last buffet I went to was ages ago at a Casino with a massive line up for savoury stuff so I started with desserts and tried to work my way backwards to main / sides and then entrees! Less line-up hassles for sure but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone!

Nice mix there Skip, i love the Miller GU and Big O x-fractor. That Hardaway Fleer Mystique auto is a cracker too, been trying to pick up a nice auto of the master of the killer crossover for a while now

3 of the cards I really like the look of, simply because they're well designed and catch one;s eye. Pretty sure Timmy signed some autographics stuff so I guess that's what you're going after...............and anything high end.......................obviously! :-P

Nice 90's stuff.

Cheers mate, prefer the 90s stuff to the new stuff, brings back those childhood memories!

skip whatever it is that you are collecting, its a nice bunch of stuff... the rip is beaut, so is the riley and a cool lot of patches

CHeers Branko, I ike the look of it and that's why I'm happy to show off even my low end stuff most people wouldn't bother sharing. Rip is one of my few exquisities and not a big patch guy (besides lettermen) so those few stand out for me.

Real nice pickups mate! Love the old CC gold sigs!

 

[jasonf23312]

Nice Random mailday!! I like the Hardaway Fresh Ink! the Scripted Swatches are nice Foil cards aren't they!

 

[skip20]

Real nice pickups mate! Love the old CC gold sigs!

Yep, awesome looking cards - surprised they haven't brought out somethign similar lately..... Used to be the bomb back in the day!

Nice Random mailday!! I like the Hardaway Fresh Ink! the Scripted Swatches are nice Foil cards aren't they!

Scripted Swatch is one of the better non-PC cards I have - the Exquisite premium normally puts me off grabbing too many! :-P
