Found out about a small monthly show on just outside of the city. Decided to check it out, bad thing is, I just got some work and ended up doing 11 hours straight Sat night through Sun morning till 5:00 a.m. Show was on Sunday, so I got a couple hours sleep and felt like crap, lol. Ended up convincing myself to get up an get going, with the help of some medication
A walk, subway ride and bus ride later, I was feeling good and happy I made the trip. Small show, one biggish room, nothing compared to The National lol! There was 3-4 guys with basketball stuff, so I was only there an hour roughly. Still, there was a fair few new cards, including some Ultra! Picked up some bargains too! I'll list them in a sec. Lots of decent stuff, serial numbered etc in some cheap piles which was good fun sifting through. I plan heading back next month to grab some more because I didn't have much time and I had to get back to downtown for my next lot of work
O.k. so I grabbed some decent cards:
96/97 Bowman's Best Cuts rafractors - Grant Hill, Dennis Rodman
New 07/08 Autographics - James White, Bruce Bowen
Bowman Sterling RC auto/GU - Carney, Thabo
Scored a Mookie Blaylock 98/99 Sign of the Times for $1! for the PC set.
Press Pass Legends: Maurice Ager green /25, Sue Bird /899 and /99 (who collects her?)
Hilton Armstrong Press Pass Blue auto /50
05/06 Finest Gold X-Frac J-Rich /29
04/05 Pristine Gold die cut refractor Jet Terry /27
96/97 Flair Showcase Row 0 Anfernee Hardaway
99-00 Finest Dunk Masters Scottie Pippen /750
05/06 SP Sig Edition Gold JR Smith /25
06/07 Big Game Andrew Bogut 1/59
06/07 Topps Trademark Moves Ricky D wood /75
Plus some other nice stuff, like Nique Triple threads, Ben Wallace Supreme Court patch /25, some Devins for Scotty, etc, etc. All will be scanned if available on my return home! I can't wait just like you guys
Will contact via pm those I have specific cards for too. Hopefully returning to Australia at the start of December.
So for the hour or so I was at the card show, it was pretty sweet. Once guy had some sweet stuff but wanted close to bv for everything.
