~~~~~2013 Morning Thread Secret Santa Showoff Thread~~~~~

Yeah, I think those things might have crossed his mind. Plus the Gooden was kinda low serial numbered, and the quality of the Yaz sketch card was just a tiny hair better than this one.

Yaz in 67, what a season!

Thank you Brad, I am really enjoying and getting a kick out of the Yaz Sketch probably because I have never owned one :lol:

 

[mlbsalltimegreats]

Lol, I just now noticed the Pic of the Tempy Yaz when I quoted ya.

Please say that [MENTION=2055]metallicalex777[/MENTION] will be using that lunchbox on a regular basis.

He said he could store cards in it......I said or you could carry your lunch in it :facepalm:

 

[clarkzac]

Well I think the time as finally come. I think I'm going to try and move most of my Denard Span PC. This past year I haven't really added too much to it. Once he was traded to the Nationals, my drive to collect him went away

WOW there are some outstanding gifts posted up already!! Congrats to the Secret Santas and the victims!!

I want to thank Alex for his awesome generosity! I couldn't be happier with the gifts I received. George thanks for coordinating everything as well. I couldn't have done this without you.

On to the gifts!

First this is sweet Matt Kemp Topps Triple Threads Matt Kemp /3 Great patch!!

That would have been great on it's own.....But this...well this just took it over the top and down the other side and top the top of the next mountain!!

I don't even think this needs explaining......

BOOOM!!!

Alex, thank you very much, you went above and beyond and I could not be happier.

I also want to thank you and George for being there. It really means a lot to me.

Howdy boys - off work early today - some amazing work so far by all involved with the MTSS

 

[George_Calfas]

[MENTION=4937]alexs64[/MENTION].....told you

 

[thefatguy]

Awesome stuff as always!!!

I love the MTSS show off day
But my phone doesn't lol

 

[moxacaine]

Wow, some amazing items. Great job with the MTSS this year everyone. And as mentioned before many thanks to George for running this again.

 

[moxacaine]

A UL Washington Rookie! Boom!

I actually thought of you when i first saw it.

 

[michaelstepper]

Amazing job guys!

 

[CatdaddysCards]

More great additions, since my last check-in. Spent the last couple of hours going through the box o goodies. That was an enjoyable time. Unfortunately, some nice cards were damaged during shipping

Keep the MTSS show rolling fellas!

 

[hoopster3977]

Howdy everyone!
Please excuse me for my rant yesterday, apparently I took the comments wrongfully back in November. And by the way, I haven't flipped anything in the 4 case break. I do collect and make sets, but it looks like I'm in the minority here. I just like items that other's have no interest in.

Congrats to all the MTSS victims here. I really enjoy being a part of this group due to the generosity and the compassion for the hobby. Some really nice collectibles have been shown, and I'm sure very much appreciated.

I haven't opening my package yet, but I'm sure I'll be surprised. Thanks to George for coordinating the very successful event.

I'll post my haul later, I've been replacing all the tackle on my ice fishing tip-ups and jig poles. Our ice fishing shack is scheduled to be out on the ice next week. I was planning on going out on the ice this evening, but plans have changed.

Gotta get to the scanning!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday's to all.

Ralph

Thats good to hear Ralph, i apologize if in any way my response was taken offensive as in no way did i mean it to come off that way. I love a good break like everyone but as George mention in that thread i had no idea if you were getting wooped or if you were doing the woopin, lol. Happy holidays buddy and cant wait to see your gift.

I was truly amazed by my MTSS gift this year!

I will get some proper scans up in a bit, but first I wanted to take some pics to show the time/creativity that Dustin [MENTION=10405]Hawk8[/MENTION] put into the presentation of my gift...



















Four boxes, each inside the others, and a card/cards in/on each level.

I was blown away, honestly.

I will posts scans and descriptions in a little while.

 

[MojoDan]

This has been a GREAT thread. Who are we still waiting on?

 

[69MetsFan]

I would like to add my present to the thread and thank our very own Yooper, Ralph, for the outstanding gift!

OMLB signed by Jesse Hudson.
Here's some background on Mr Hudson:
http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/h/hudsoje01.shtml
Short & sweet, on 19Sep69, he pitched just two innings and this was his entire career.
He's an elusive signer, and rarely adds inscriptions, which is what makes this gift so awesome.
Ralph, you have outdone yourself and this ball is already among my favorites, THANKS!!!
