Congrats Wendy on some sweet cards.
Thanks Mik!!! Thought you might like those! The boxtopper is nice! Looks good hanging out next to the Donald Brown version!! <br />
<br />
NineOf Wrote:Great looking Orakpo cards!!! I really like the Donruss Elite die cut auto card and the box topper. My favorite though has got to be the Absolute Memorabilia auto card with the "UT" die cut. The numbering on it is not too shabby as well.<br /><br />
Does the box topper pretty much look like a giant card? Does it have stuff written on the back?
Thanks NineOf! The Elite is nice and I'm a big fan of the Absolute College autos this year. I've missed out on a couple of the Prime versions /10, but no more!! Gotta get me one of those soon. The boxtopper is 5x7, so it does look like an oversize card or a giant photo! There is text on the back and I'll try to scan it for you sometime soon. It basically says this is the autographed version of the card, which is helpful!!<br />

You need more QUAN. I'm so glad he finally figured out what the better shade of Orange is...lol<br />
<br />
The UD Black Dual, yeah, That's a nice one. I hadn't seen any versions of duals like that yet.<br />
<br />
Does your Mailcarrier have a Hernia yet from all this stuff?

Great update, RW34!!! Those Strokes of Genius cards still look unbelievable to me. I really dig that set. I also like the Finest Simms RC. They definitely used a better action shot for him then they did for Palmer. <br />
Were the VY auto cards hard to pick up? I figure his cards should be back on the rise.

Thanks NineOf! The Strokes of Genius cards are some of my absolute favorites...especially the red border /10. <br />
I got both the VY's before he started playing this season. The Sage was a trade and I'm lucky it arrived safely after looking at the PWE it came in. The other one was hidded in a lot with a bunch of other Horns. I got a steal on the lot!!<br />
