A couple of days ago, Derek from Tomahawk Chopping posted about needing one last card to complete his 2012 Series 1 set. I just happened to have that very card sitting on my desk so I sent him a message. I told him I’d send the card (and a couple of the 87 minis) to him and if he felt like it, he could send whatever he thought was applicable in return. I figured he’d just send me a couple of the 2012 Red Sox. Nope. He sent me THIS…
I received my cards from Sam’s latest group break last night. I walked away with a hit, a complete team set, and 1 card short of another team set. That’s really the goal (or at least my goal) when I participate in group breaks. I’m looking for sets of products I might not have opened. If I get a hit, that’s just the cherry on top. As always my friend, thanks for running another great break. We might not have hit huge mojo, but I had fun, and new cards are always a good thing. Speaking of, let’s check out the loot…
Just a heads up…

Both your packages are on their way. USPS says they’ll be there by Thursday. Enjoy 🙂
My good buddy Sam over at the Daily Dimwit did me a solid and completely gave me the better end of a trade deal. I knocked off a couple Gypsy Queen relics from his list and tossed in a Bud Norris auto for good measure and he reciprocated with these…
You might remember that I picked up a Buchholz auto/jersey at the show a couple weeks ago and included it in my hits post. This, well, this completely blows that out of the water.
02/25, and a patch, are you freaking kidding me?!?! Not only a patch, but a patch from an alternative jersey. The jersey part on that card is actually red, not white or gray. That means it’s from one of the alternative “red” jerseys that they wear at home and on special occasions. One of these…
Given that the “Red Sox” font is Old English and there’s not a single strait line in it, that means that particular piece came from the back. From the “H” or the “L” in his name, or from the number. That’s unreal. The Lester is nice too, but, let’s be honest, patch trumps white swatch any day. It was awesome for Sam to include it though. Thank you once again my friend, you are a gentleman and a scholar. This is an instant “Top 5” card. Hell, it might just be my new #1.
