Ashburn Alley, congrats!!
MT guys, I got a question, I'm scanning my O'neill collection and I'm at the '96 Fleer. Beckett lists two. 1996 Fleer and the shinny Tiffany card. I have a few of the regular card but one has silver foil the other and all my dupes have gold foil. I seem to remember something about this back then but can anyone school me on this, thanks in advance. Kevin.

Base was gold foil, matte finish

Tiffany was silver reflective foil, glossy finish (one per pack)

Team Set cards were silver flat foil, glossy finish, and numberd XX of 20 on back.

Your's looks like a team set card, but the Yankees weren't one of the team sets offered. Does the silver foil O'Neil have a matte or glossy finish, and what is it numbered on back?

Does anyone know what is going on with Rich?

I actually have a package for him, but I don't want to send it until I know everything's alright with him.

Not sure what happened Taylor but he's active over on BO.

Taylor, he posted on fb about his father in law passing a few days ago.

Nothing happened that I know of, but he was really active here and then he just stopped, so I thought something might be up.

EDIT: Posted this before I saw Darren's post.

Yeah I know he was really active here at one point and happened to notice he was still on BO, not sure if he got tired of FCB or what. Like Dan said it would be great if some of the old MT regulars stopped in more often.

It would be. I miss some of those guys.

Long day. No plane to work on and no parts to prep. Lots if standing around doing nothing. At least I'm getting paid for it.

Back from eye appt. Dislike the stuff they put in there. It's been 2 hours and I'm struggling to look outside at all (sunny w/snow).

I have a Tiffany version. The one in question is not glossy. It has silver foil lettering with matte finish. It is not numbered. Looks exactly like the base with the exception of the silver foil.

If you're talking about Pinetar Rich, I keep in touch with him on FB. Can't go into details, in public, about why he hasn't been here. All is good with him though.

I had a text convo with him a while back and concur

I do miss Rich posting on here. I always enjoyed his stories about the events he did with the veterans. I hope everything is well with him

Two card mail day today. The Dean I bought just because it was cheap and a neat little oddball for the collection. And then the other one I was curious as to if Charlie needed it

His well being is the most important.

I really need to find a new phone. I had a Samsung Galaxy 3 but it slipped out of my pocket while I was sitting at my desk and the screen broke. I'm not using my old Droid X2, which is one of the worst phones possible lol. It doesn't help that the battery only lasts about 20 minutes if I do anything on it
