Wes is building a LARGE stack of packs to bust on his birthday next spring and while doing so he's been holding little contests with each update.
I happened to win one of the contests and I came away with a 1996 over-sized All-Star set from Upper Deck.
Taking a look at the back I believe eleven of the starters have been elected to the Hall of Fame.
I have an unofficial goal of owning a set of baseball cards to represent every year since my birth year. This prize will fill the 1996 vacancy nicely!
As Wes is wont to do, he added in a bonus.
BOOM!
How 'bout that? Although I should have assumed a commemorative coin existed I actually didn't know about it until it landed in my mailbox. "A 39mm Silver Plated Medallion Limited Edition of 10,000." Super cool!
I've placed all my most prized Cubs memorabilia in display case. Can you find it?
Right next to Wheaties box!
Thanks a million, Wes!
Honored to see that beauty in such a glorious display!
ReplyDeleteI love love love my display case and anything World Series related I can place in it. Thank you so much!
DeleteThe coin card is really cool, a wonderful looking addition.
ReplyDeleteI like that goal of owning a set of baseball cards from your birth year forward. I'm doing something similar... collecting all of the Topps sets from my birth year to 1986.
