It may have taken a few weeks to get to sharing it here, but only because I had a couple packages come in around the same time, but Oren, a frequent reader and trader from the US, reached out about some cards to send my way, and we have a number to share over a few days - yay!
I figure I'd start with what many may consider the least exciting - a whole bunch of 1992 Fleer Blue Jays. Now, to be fair, I do have a team set so these are all duplicated in that sense, but at the same time - aren't.
Oh micro-variations and how I never knew about you when I was a kid. If you aren't aware, a small difference in the PRINTED IN THE U.S.A. line on the back as one version of most cards does not have the last dot after the A.
It was the missing dot version I was missing on a number of the cards, and that problem was solved in almost all cases with these cards. Very cool, and will mean I only need a couple last variations in order to complete a master base team set.
Even without that fact, we are talking about the Jays team that was at the height of awesomeness given the 1992/1993 World Series wins, just a bonus to actually need some of the variations and have them come across.
Very good day for cards indeed, and I am sure others ahead from Oren!
