Wow what a freakin mailday!!

I'll start it off with an insanely awesome sketch of Bobby Doerr by our very own, WoundedDuck!!

Modeled after my favorite card of his, 1939 Play Ball!

Looks fantastic!!!

And this package surprised me, holy crap! Got a package, opened it up it says "Ho Ho Ho"...Santa!

So I unravel the awesome Christmas themed tissue paper and well....I'll let the scan do the talking:

You are the MAN Chris....Thank you so much buddy, this will be in the PC forever! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

It was funny because I opened the first package and it was the sketch card of the 39 Play Ball Doerr and I'm like that looks sick! And to my surprise the next card was none other but an auto'ed 39 Play Ball

Merry Christmas to you too man!!

jay1065 - Thanks a ton Jay!

HoustonTeams4Me - Heh thanks man, Merry Christmas to you too! The Red ink on the black and white card looks awesome!! And btw, I had to do something with "Ho Ho Ho" because Chris wrote it on the package.

mlbsalltimegreats - Thanks man, I wasn't losing out on that one!

Thanks Dave!! LOVE the red ink, how's the new siggy?!

Once Christmas comes along I will have a Blue ink (Gehringer), Red ink (Doerr), and Black ink (Ferrell) in the sig.

soxfan33 · Dec 22, 2008

Scotty,

Congrats! That's a super nice card! Even better that is was a gift! A very nice one at that.

Here's a Doerr I just traded for yesterday. Not as nice as yours, but I wanted to share it with you:

Have a Merry Christmas!
John
