They just started popping up online.. None of the stores around here have them so I just bought one on the Bay. Should be here by this weekend or Monday at the latest.

Alrighty, I've added a ton since the last update.... And I realized I never posted the article haha...
Here is what I have added:
USA Red Auto (now have 10 total USA autos, 2 red)
graded RC
Beckett slabbed Topps mini blank back 1/1
3 or 4 more plates (cant remember how many since the last report)
Topps Chrome rainbow (minus the super 1/1)
Topps mini Gold and Platinum /5

And now that Triple Threads is here I have a Emerald /50, Gold /25, and Sepia /75 auto-relics (all with pinstripes) incoming and I am working on a few others. I believe all of them are his Quality Start Streak cards and one One-Hitter card. I also got a really cool Japan-exclusive Sega/Topps card used for Arcade games, pretty neat actually. Pics below, including the article in Beckett Magazine:

Here is an updated photo of my now overflowing display case...

"Dickey has teary reunion"..... I'm not saying anything else. A dozen jokes could come out of that headline.

The only reason why I have the newspaper clipping is because it was in the NY Daily News and I was the one who shot the photo. lol :D

[jonprelude]

So what your saying, is the headline should say, "Dickey shoots Dickey"

[stang66dad]

Incoming:

Dickey TTT Sepia Auto/relic /75
Dickey TTT Emerald Auot/relic /50
Dickey TTT Gold Auto/Relic /25
Dickey TTT Saphhire Auto/Relic /10

All of these are of his Quality Start Streak card. Need the /99 QSS and all of the One-hitter version of the card..

Awesome to see the progress! Congrats on making it into Beckett!

[stang66dad]

Thanks man! It was fun to see it happen lol

Congrats on your boy's 20th. I have grown up a diehard Mets fan, and although we endured our typical late season collapse, this has been a fantastic year. Johan's no-no. Wright breaking Everyday Eddie's hits record (among others), and now R.A.'s 20th. So much better than lame Jose Reyes' franchise first batting title, won on a cop out.

Here's to hoping they give him the CY. 20-6 on a team 15 below .500?!

i believe strongly that he should get it! lol he totally deserves it more than Gio... lol
