I dont know what to say about this, except that after 8+ years my search for the Cal Ripken has come to the end and I am the proud owner of a complete 2005 Ultimate Signature Immortal Inscriptions set!! Those that have followed my progress will know that the last two cards took me 8 years, with the Nolan Ryan coming only months ago. This is a huge milestone for me, a milestone that made me realize there is nothing else out there that I want to buy. So, with the complete decades set, and now this, I am calling it quits with any more purchases.

Without further delay, here is my holy grail mailday, and a couple biggies from the set...click on the image in my sig for the whole set! (oh, and those who saw my signature with those yellow boxes...gone!!)

Huge! Congrats! I know how long this has taken you and it's great to see someone nail down something like this.




*Maybe unlink the pictures so those on mobile can enjoy without being redirected with Taco Bell advertisements ;)

Thanks guys!

What's wrong with Taco Bell? Haha. I'm not sure how to post pics the way you suggested though, sorry. I always use the img link from photobucket...

Awesome! That is a set I have though about starting many times.

Best of luck if you do. I know a couple of collectors chasing it too...they're all going after the same 5-6 cards! I was extremely fortunate enough to get to the seller immediately.
