not much new these days.... but secured the gem of our venters collection!

big thanks to Mike/The Cardboard Fan!

took us a while to work out a trade we were both ok with, but a couple nice cards sent over his way and got this lil gem in the mail today from him!

only two cards to go (with one being much easier to find than this one!) in the collection!

2008 bowman chrome - blue refractor #/150
2011 topps holiday set foil - #/75


2008 bowman chrome - red refractor - #1/5 (any marks are on case not card)

Nice card. I cant beleive Mike gave that one up. He is usually our Braves Hog here. LOL

Ha, it took us a long time but John came strong and finally talked me into just the 2nd trade I have ever made from my PC and the 1st time I did so I was able to replace the card I traded off

thanks for checking it out!

Very nice.

hehe it took us a while to hammer out that deal I can understand being hesitant to get rid of such a card...but given our prospects of finding another anytime soon...was in no hurry!

now to track back down the blue and hope to stumble upon the holiday factory set foil version (hopefully people get these as gifts and they start popping up!)

[johnxgodfree]

been a while since I have added anything new.... reall yhaven't had much pop up lately.... passed on buying the 2011 topps update canary diamond all-star relic for $90 too rich for my blood right now

picked up these two plates recently $40 for the pair in seperate pickups.... only missing the black plate now to have all four:

some folks might remember this set of auto'd balls we were working on... got the Eric O'Flaherty from our friend in the mail today to complete the "Trifecta"

[capncush]

haha yeah. those are awesome. cool to see them together like that. whatd the guys say when you told them about the inscriptions?

[thepointguard_10]

Being a Braves fan, those inscprited baseballs by "O'Ventbrel" are siiiiiiick!

[sesfan01]

boy I haven't seen you around on here in a while. Those auto baseballs are amazing right next to each other like that. pretty cool.

thanks for sharing and glad to see you are still around.
