Giants Cardboard: Sorry, I Forgot

 

As a blogger of multiple blogs, Facebook pages and Twitter accounts, I tend to have a short memory time to time. Embarrassingly so.

Today's mail day is a prime example of it. I have no idea who I traded with for this mail day and tried my best to research on Twitter to find the trading partner. But couldn't. It is shameful.

So if this was you, please let me know so I can give you the proper thanks.

Because there was a lot of cool stuff in here that I shouldn't have waited so long to post about.

Such as....

Ron Dixon football relic. These are underappreciated in the hobby. I prefer this more than patches especially when it's game used and game noted when it was used.

Rookie Threads Moss

Arthur Marshall. This was probably one of my favorite Autograph sets of all time and especially from the 90's. I own just a few cards from it.

New Kerry Collins for the PC

I showed you one Brandon Jacobs autograph above, here is another rookie one. Jacobs has an okay signature but I wouldn't dare to tell him that it wasn't perfect. Nobody wants to be in his way when he comes running at you.

If only Smith could have stayed healthy. He could have been the Giants all-time leader in receiving. He was really talented.

 

These final cards are really shiny. We will ignore the poor autograph of Aaron Ross.

Thanks again to whoever I traded with for these cards for my PC and appreciate the trade. If this was you again, I apologize I tucked these away for so long in my que. I should have published them sooner but the 25 Days Of Cardmas took over.

Breakdown Cardboard On Vacation

For the first time in two years, I was able to go on vacation.  It was a much needed one.

My sister in law rented a cabin on a lake about an hour from where I live and we spent this whole week there. Just before I headed out to leave on the trip, I stopped by my mail box where a pwe from Gavin was waiting for me.

Instead of turning around and bringing the envelope home, I decided it would be fun to have it with me so that I could do a Blog On Location instead. A fun aspect I have never done before.

The cards inside were great, but the cards were greater. All new to me! That's tough to do when my NY Giants collection is so deep.

Evan Engram red prizm parallel. Such a great looking card all around and I tried to have the sun capture it's magic while Evan decided to take a look out over the lake.

Juan gone

Hakeem Nicks Topps Platinum refractor decided to take a relaxing sit on the swing that resides on the deck overlooking the lake

Well, Eli and Phil both decided to take turns in the sun. Trying to get their tans after Phil passed the torch off. I truly miss the days when most inserts were numbered. Made them feel more worthy.

And Odell trying his hand at N64 which I hadn't ever played til now. Kobe Bryant's in NBA Courtside was the only game offering but still was fun.

It was a fun packed week of eating great food, relaxation, talking cardboard with a few Twitter peeps in my downtime and even went to a fun Christmas themed park for a day where I decorated Gingerbread men and rode some rides. Well, nothing special as I have motion sickness but it was still a good time.

Hope everyone else enjoyed their week and thanks to Gavin for another solid mail day.

LT The Robot

NY Giants kick finishes up my awesome mail day from @imqualifying.

Up first some Donruss adds. Not sure which I have or don't, but pretty sure most are needed.

 

Jacobs and Cruz

 

A nice looking Sinorice Moss jersey card. It appears from the photo he is wearing an LT jersey....

 

And to finish up the mail day, I go back to 1992 Upper Deck with a FaniMation card of Lawrence Taylor. He appears as a sack taking destroying robot that won't back down. I bet this is what Joe Theismann saw coming at him on that Monday night game.

 

 

A huge thanks goes out to @imqualifying for her generosity in this mail day. I was blown away. I have a few things I wanna send your way when I get the chance to. But, I cannot repeat enough how much appreciation I have for this!

 

Thoughts on todays or past mail days from this box are welcomed in comments!
