    A Rainbow any Player Collector Can Appreciate

    I have had this completed for quite awhile, but have been seriously slacking in the Show & Tell department. Hopefully that will change in the near future, gonna try and show some stuff off.






    Anybody who has a player PC, can appreciate how tough this rainbow is to complete. 14 cards, with the end of the rainbow being a 1/1. If your player gets put into this set at the beginning of the year, you know you're going to have some work to do to track them down. Normally I don't do this for Stastny, but I got the 1/1, and the Auto /5 early on, so I decided to go for it. The last card to complete the rainbow was the Gold Spectrum /25.






    Here's the rainbow:






    15-16 Artifacts Paul Stastny













    The contents:


    Base, Ruby /399, Emerald /99, Sapphire /85, Gold /25, Black Auto /5
    Dual Jersey /125, Jersey/Patch /75, Dual Patch /10, Patch/Tag /5
    Dual Jersey Auto /49, Jersey/Patch Auto /10, Dual Patch Auto /5
    Patch/Tag Auto 1/1










    And here's a close up of the 1/1, which is probably one of my favorite Stastny cards now.













    So there you have it - probably one of the better rainbows I'll ever complete, never really thought I'd have what it takes to finish off an Artifacts rainbow.




    Thanks for looking, comments appreciated as always!

    WOW! Congrats! Artifacts is easily the toughest brands for player collectors in terms of the number are tough parallels, and it is also one of the best looking IMHO with the variety of foils used.

    This is one pretty rainbow for your Stastny PC! That stunning 1/1 makes this thing come to life. Awesome.

    You magnificent basterd!

    I haven't seen the 1/1 for my guy pop up yet, or maybe I missed it. AND Upper Deck seems to have forgotten to make the Emerald Relics /75. So here I sit, empty inside

    That's an awesome rainbow, congrats!

    Beauty work, Derrick! Congrats putting that all together. Anytime you get more than five cards in a rainbow, and some of them get below #'d /25 it's a real challenge. Nice!

    That's weird that they didn't produce the /75. Good luck finding the 1/1!

    That's awesome Derrick! Artifacts is a tough one, with the sheer volume of cards. I'm still looking for a few from past year for my collection, and that doesn't even include the 1/1s I don't look for :)

    Killer rainbow. Whenever you can include a 1/1 card, it makes it all the better. Congrats.
