Work hard and get cards...

The Santa Lot 20 today brings a few nice inserts/parallels...

Highlights:

A nice set of inserts and parallels. The Ilya is in rough shape, but the rest are nice, especially the 1979-80 retro O Pee Chee from the 2008-09 set. As for the Iginla, I'll count it as an error card - it is off centre enough that it cuts off right at the bottom - and that's good enough for me!

Lowlights:

Not much as far as a card goes, but it does bring up a good point - why didn't I ever hear about such a program as a kid - I'd love to get cards just for doing school work! I wonder how much success such a program would have if still around these days.

The rest
Keepers:

Continuing to get more 2005-06 Black Diamond - don't know how far it'll go, but I guess we shall see.


Traders:

Out of the doubles, another Senators insert is a nice get as well as the added Black Diamond which maybe if nothing else I can trade to get more of the set if anyone is interested.
