Back in October, I had sent a package of cards as a big pay i forward, to TCDB member StarsFan, without any expectation of a return of any kind. Well, I did get something back, and that's what we get to look at today.
The 1987 Jays are a nice pick up even if they are dupes. I do find it interesting how different the shades of woodgrain border design can be, especially over time. As for the hockey cards, a lot of needs and man from the late 70s and early 80s which is amazing. I don't mind Guy Lafleur sneaking his way into the Leaf binder either....even if it's as a Canadien.
Have to appreciate the team photo card - very nice, and great quality on most of these which a pleasant surprise.
I still don't really understand why there was a try to do "scratch" parts on cards, but we have a few unscratched versions here which is a nice get too.
As you can see, there are a few Bruins cards which came along in the package, and I have passed those along to local collector Jeff (always like being able to get him some cards in trades given how much he has passed my way).
Best team set completion in the pack is the 1005-96 Ultra base set, excellent!
Even some newer Leaf cards, all of which were needs for me - woohoo! Last up...
the baseball Classic cards are dupes for keep, but the Fichaud is a one and done Leaf team set.
Unexpected, but very much appreciated!
