As we get to the holidays for another year, we wind down 2025 and get ready for 2026. One item from years past that isn't around anymore - these Dollarama packs as the price has changed, and number of cards you get adjusted a couple times, but I have this old one to crack today.
You cam see why I picked it up as this first card is not only a Leaf card but is also an uncorrected error card as it's a Series 2 checklist, but the front says Series 1. This means right off the bat, I have a great score for this little pack since Toronto error cards are a big plus!
I wasn't expecting too much else in the pack, but lo and behold, we do have some base helpers with Larionov and Acton - different versions of Score sets from 1990-91 and 1991-92 that I am working on.
The Going For Gold is a keeper too as I have a slow work on the women's national team set going.
The variety is pretty solid on these packs - I mean, you know half will be "junk" year cards, but since I still keep all Leaf's and there are a few sets there I am still working on, even those can be solid for me, and that's what we have here...
Well, with a small sample size of a single pack, I guess this is what happens - ha. Works for me because for what it was, might have been heavily one card, but was definitely a great pick up for me collection wise so - all good!
A quick and separate add on, and a surprise in the mail. Double B from TCDB sent me well wishes and a card for my collection which was on my want list...
I am missing the Stro-show as the last of the Maple Leaf parallels for the 2018 Topps Opening Day set for my Jays. It's a very nice design and I approve of the Canadian content. Many thanks for sending it along!
