Turns out I had a package after all.

#2898 (102 to go)

1997 Topps Gallery Gallery of Heroes #MH10
I love this card! Always wanted one but never pulled the trigger or was too expensive when I saw it in a Green Bay card shop. Got a great deal for it on eBay. Couldn't pass it up.

Also, while I was sorting through some of my cards, adding the new ones to my boxes, I found one that wasn't already in my database...so I added it.

#2899 (101 to go)

1997 Pinnacle Mint Die Cuts #1
I got confused by the whole die cut and non die cut versions of the card. Now I have the regulars, as well as the die cuts from this year. Yay for me.

Seeing as that last card was nothing spectacular, I thought I show off a couple others that I picked up in the last week.


1997 Donruss Preferred #5
Tried buying this one from a different Green Bay card shop a few months ago. Shop owner's dad refused to sell it for less than book and barely budged when I told him that he was out of his mind. Didn't get it that day and wasn't surprised to see the shop shut down when I visited last month. Got this off eBay and couldn't be happier at the price I got it for.


2002 Topps Pristine Driving Force Jersey #DF-BF
One of the cards I'd never see again. Bought this several years ago because of the fact that there was a "Game stitch" in the jersey. Apparently it was sewed up while on the field. Sold it with the rest of them. Saw it on eBay and thought I could make out something familiar in the swatch in the crappy scan. Bought it for less than what I sold it for and was thrilled when the stitches were in the exact same spot as before. All I can say is "Welcome back."

Added 45 John Elways for trade. Nothing fancy. Will probably add a few 2013 Bowman that I picked up as well before going to bed.

That was today's update. Just over a hundred to go. Whoo!
