An ABSOLUTEly Nice Mail Day

A few weeks ago, I was DM'd on Twitter by friend and Sport Card Collector's reader, @DieselDugong, about a card he thought deserved to be in my hands more than his. Well, that card arrived today and I was in disbelief.

Along with the main card I will show below, he sent along some extra cards too.

Some for my Yankees PC. I really like the Montgomery and this is my first Tyler Austin.

 

Some for my Giants PC and a couple sub-PC's

 

And one for my NY Rangers PC.

 

Then hidden behind the Lundqvist was this beauty.....

 

A 2013 Absolute Printing Plate 1/1 autograph of David Wilson.

 

I was in "absolute" shock to see this card in the envelope and am still blown away staring at it.

 

This fits many PC's with it being David Wilson (who I wished could have played longer but I did enjoy watching his talents for the time he did play), a NY Giant, a Printing Plate and an autograph.

 

A huge thanks goes out to @DieselDugong for this amazing card and the others as well. I have also found a few cards I think that will look better in your collection then mine I am putting together too so be on the lookout ;)

So what do the rest of you think of my mail day????

2-Part Mail Day...Awesomeness to View

In this two-part mail day I recieved today, the first part is from a Twitter contest and the second part is from a trade/fun acquisition.

First, a shout out to Michael McMannis on Twitter for this two rookie Prizm card parallel mail day. I am a huge fan of these parallels and it also fills a rookie card need.

Now onto the second part of my great mail day. This one comes from my good buddy @DieselDugong and a big thanks goes out to him too. This was a part trade and part just for fun mailing. There are a few people I do this with. I will mail them something, they will return something. It's fun to both put together packages to send them and to see what they return to you. You just never know. It's all apart of the hobby fun.

Now onto this latest edition. Some 90's Topps Gold Giants adds...all new by the way..

My first Topps Triple Threads cards...

These are cool the 2014 Topps Gypsy Queen N174's...

A cool Strahan Classic rookie and Jeter insert. 

Some NEW Griffey Jr PC  adds. Love the Swing For The Fences card. Panini did a great job with Pinnacle.

Yogi! #d to 25

This was a sweet addition. Not only a Yankee, but an autograph containing a Bible verse. It's one of my firsts like that. If you are curious what the verse is by the way, it is:

"But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God."

And here was the card I traded for in this group. My first Andre Williams auto and my first Slideshow autograph. I am pretty excited about this add.

Overall, both mail day parts were great! Some nice additions to my PC all around.
