Boston mini Jersey is JD Drew /499 FT
Obama reg & gold is FT

That's a pretty decent auto pull out of 2008 Topps, considering the plethora of schlub autos in that set. Jackpot!
Sweet break. One of the better autos.

Thanks! You're right, could have been a disaster.
Always a pleasure pulling a David Wright auto from a severely discounted product. Probably My best pull of all my Black Friday hobby boxes! (Posey TriStar might be a close 2nd)

It beats the heck outta my other Xmas box of cards ...2010 Topps update. Got a Tim Hudson all star relic. Yawn ... Not worthy of a pic.
Yeah, 2010 Update was pretty brutal for us, too. Opened a jumbo looking for one card (Lucroy, surprise!) and, out of 500 cards, got squadoosh!
Very nice hits. It reminds me that I need to add a David Wright auto to my Mets collection.
I was wondering on whether or not to pull the trigger on buying one of those jumbos on black friday. They were super cheap weren't they?...Something like $25 each?

Yep, like $24.95 IIRC. 1 auto 1 relic and a chance at a redemption of either hit that expired 8 years ago Smile
I got about as lucky as I could have hoped. At least it wasn't a Jay Austin auto (for those of you that didn't read about my 2008 TriStar break ... Something like 5 Jay Austin autos in 3 boxes of TriStar. ...oh, and 5 Xavier Avery and 5 Brian Hunter in the same boxes ... Collation? TriStar doesn't know the meaning of the word Smile )

FYI: Just checked and Blowout still has 32 jumbo boxes of 2008 still at that sale price. I know I'm quitting while I'm ahead Smile
Nice break!
