Jeter Rules The Day

Back in my mail day from Dion a couple weeks ago, I mentioned sending out two packages that day and braving the post office because of two big cards.

Well, the second of those mail days is now being posted which came from @tmcbmatt. However, it's being posted minus the big card. You will have to follow Cards Over Coffee if you expect to see that card and it's worth seeing.

In the meantime, you can check out what rest of the mail day was.

Trio of Giants, well, Tarkenton in a Vikings uni. He will always be a Giant in my mind though.

Double the Jeter Topps rookies, Double the Fun!

Dwade! Finally landed a rookie of him. I can cross him off from the want list

Bowman Eli Manning rookie

 

And finally, Eddie Murray rookie. Another long sought after card on my want list. The big card I didn't show was on my want list as well so @tmcbmatt knocked three down!

Thanks again @tmcbmatt and bonuses as always. Much appreciated!

The second mail day came from Rod over at Padrographs.

I claimed one Jeter, he sent five overall. I don't ever mind finding some Jeters in my mail day. 

Thanks Rod!

There was lots of good stuff in these mail days which should give me something to do when it comes to putting them away, though it won't take very long. My biggest sort is still ahead, I just got to get the materials to get that underway.

Incoming Box From @Tmcbmatt

Once again a great friend in @tmcbmatt hit me up with another box of goods. He knows I am a huge Giants fan and when he finds a good stack of them, he passes them along. This time with a few other small surprises.

But, first, the Giants roll on! There was so much in there I couldn't show them all off. Would take a week to post it all. However, I will show off a few. Just take note, this wasn't even close to the amount of them, especially new ones I found.

Plaxico! Wasn't with the Giants long, but one of my all time favorites with them. There was a good stack of Burress cards in both Giants blue and Steelers black.

Tiki Barber running with many cards in this box. Wonder how many of his I have now? Could really use a Giants autograph of him. When I first saw this Black Diamond card I hoped to discover more, especially a Rodney Hampton, but I didn't. Instead I can just appreciate this one Black Diamond card as it is. Upper Deck made great football cards.

 I found a Toooomah.

 '89 Score and my first Dave Meggett rookie...#winning

 Tyrone does not look impressed being drafted by the Giants. Probably why he did nothing for them.

 Frank Gifford...what a player and this is a great looking card. I haven't ever seen these before.

Brandon Jacobs looking like a bulldozer in his rookie uni. Don't have this rookie card. 2005 was another off year for me and collecting.

 He not only sent Giants, but a few set needs as well. Derrick Brooks Gold Medallion...

Steve Young Pinnacle Showcase. I just recently started to want to do this set.

A thanks goes out to Matt for another great mail day. I owe you a surprise at some point and you're on my list. I know you don't expect anything in return, but just can't take something for nothing.

I will hopefully re-update my Giants cards numbers again soon.
