I love the Plain White Envelope. During my experiences with them I've come to learn that the way I package them the postage is 66 cents, because they are not machinable. I asked the post office lady the other day if they made stamps in that increment, expecting the response to be no...
Huh, learn something new everyday. Don't we?
I sent a few cards to AJ of the well-written The Lost Collector blog the other day, but it was more of a "Hey, I bet he would like these cards" PWE rather than a "Let's make a deal" PWE. Regardless, AJ was generous enough to send something back my way!
Let's take a look inside, shall we?
Boy, do I love me some Kerry Wood goodness! This is the 2009 Upper Deck Series 1 card of Mr. Wood. The Series 2 version features Kerry in Indians' garb. Bleck. This one is much nicer!
A 2001 Victory card of Wood. I've never purchased a pack of Victory before. Actually, I didn't know Victory was even a brand until I started cataloging my Kerry Wood collection.
Mmmm... The next one is a 2011 Topps Chrome refractor.
I sure do love shiny! That's a great looking card. Too bad Mateo has battled injuries for much of the year. The Cubs bullpen sure could have used his help earlier in the season.
Ahhhh... Vintage!
A 1967 Topps card, in well-loved condition, of Jim Stewart. I'm not familiar with Stewart, but I am familiar with what makes a great find in a PWE! Vintage!
Thanks for the great PWE trade, AJ!
Thank you as well, Tom.
