[aceecards]

well no visit to qtown goes without a visit to diamond cards and Barba dn Shawn , and although Barb wasn't there Shawn O mite was!

Good to see my friend up and around , in good spirits and eating!

so he just got in Topps Tek baseball and had a fresh case

and Topps triple thread football was new on the shelf

So I started with Topps Tek Baseball

Busted two boxes and got a crap auto of
alex guerrero some 2nd baseman from the dodgers unnumbered

but the second pack



and a nice Nolan ryan parallel #/25

[aceecards]

so then decided on the box of triple threads that was on the shelf instead of the box


Pulled this gorgeous patch swatch in pack 2

and I don't think the scan worked but is #12/27

Hartline, a 4 color Mike Wallace patch and J Landry

Kind of a cool looking card if you are a fins fan

but the other gu in pack one really hooverd a all black allen robinson

and the base cards were nothing to get excited about..

The autos caused much commotion and all though starting with pack 1 and continuing onto pack 2..

But lets visit those later

[aceecards]

then it was back for two more packs of topps tek

and I felt a lot better after these two



#/50



and this beauty #/25

Also got a black and white version of Chris sale #/15

[aceecards]

so the idiot that I am.. figure another $180 box of triple threads would cap off my day right.. I mean the white whale and triple auto are both still in the case.. all I gotta do is pick the right box out of the 8 left

I picked this one

and in pack one



More bad words.. I hate redemptions

and the gu was a one color black Jordan Matthews

and pack 2..

mehhh.. didn't say any bad words at least



and a nice triple gu of niners
gore, Vernon davis and carlos hyde #/27

[aceecards]

and lets go revisit that first box..

pack 1..

slid to the hit and from the top down , saw the crest of the helmet and said.. figuring I got a RB..

but..

then I saw the face and Poof.. the holys were dropping big time by the time I unveiled the beauty



4/9 Heisman Gold for me!

and why would I hold pack 2?

that isn't damage either a piece of fuzz in the magneto
!

[aceecards]

so shawn and I were like wow why bother on pack 2..

but.. and I found out today that it is actually a case hit..!!

It is one of the most stunning cards I have ever seen

and

well



#/65

You nailed it, sweet Teddy Congrats Steve

[cbware88]

WOW!!!!!!!!!! Congrats on the sweet pulls - I'm not a fan of "Johnny Football" but that is a nice looking card. Do you plan on flipping it while he is hype or holding it??

[aceecards]

needed it for my Heisman collection but I did look on ebay to see what was there and didn't find any like mine

[athopesend]
