10 months of Mail Part 3 – The Best of the Best, or...

[LecavalierFan]

Hello again everyone! Welcome to the third and final installment of my 10 months of mail call, The Best of the Best, or , Priorities Rarely Initiate Overt Reasoning, Inversely Targeting Yesterdays Obscene Fantasies


In case you missed part 1 – The Wheeling and Dealing, click here
In case you missed part 2 – The eBay Stuff, click here


There will only be a small semblance of order here, but mainly, this is just the stuff that I liked the best from the last year of goodies that I’ve picked up. I’d love to hear everyone else’s thoughts, what should have been held back until this post, or what could have probably been posted in one of the other threads.

Why don’t we start off with the deal made with ryan2374 (Ryan) that I made you wait for. To be honest, just about any one of most of these cards would be worth a S&T by itself, in my opinion. All of these came in three installments, each just as impressive as the other two. Well, here, I’ll let the scans do the talking.

Fine, I have one card left to show.

























The reason for the rather odd title.

External
Realities
Trying
Yearning
Overt
Fantasies…















Get it yet?













2007-08 The Cup Property Of… #PO-VL Vincent Lecavalier 1/1



Where is the mic drop emoji when you need it?








Well, that’s it. I appreciate you lasting throughout this entire S&Tstraviganza, but myself, my computer, and my scanner need a break.

Just as a reference, it took over a month to scan and crop each card, and write up these posts. Just saying.


Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you enjoyed the show!
