Short But Sweet

 The TCDB community is really great and something I have enjoyed being a part of for over 12 years now. There are so many great members who enjoy the hobby, and yes, now and then there can be a bump in the read, but the share today was a surprise PWE from avsbruins65 who I had done a few trades with over the years, and who happened to throw a few Leafs that I didn't have along for my collection.

All three of these actually were first Leafs in my collection from the perspective sets which is cool. Tavares from 2023-24 O Pee Chee Platinum, Tim Horton from the 2001-02 Upper Deck Stanley Cup Champs set, and Babe Pratt from the 1992-96 Hockey Hall of Fame Legends of Hockey oversized set with a print run of 10,000.

I hadn't seen the Hall of Fame cards in hand before, and are nicely done with a good overview of the career written on the back, for Babe, highlighting the fact that in 26 years in hockey (NHL and otherwise), he was on 15 championship teams which is an incredible feat.

That said, with regards to all of the cards, they are all really nice additions to the collect, and a good surprise in the mail.
