Local show pick-ups, contest winnings, and overdue thanks

First, a big thanks to maryvillereb2003 for this fantastic Vlad patch! Never seen this set before either. Very cool.




And a thank you very much to darrend505 for this varied and awesome lot of contest winnings!!












Thanks as well to MojoDan for sending along this care package




Finally, went to a local mall show that is by my house every couple of months. For the most part, it's the
same guys with the same cards every show, but I usually find 1 or 2 things to pick up reasonably cheap.

Got all of these from the same seller:


All Refs /559


Renteria /69 - Gonzalez /50


Beltran /25

And got both of these 8x10s for $7 total





Thanks for looking! And sorry for the long post.

Dave's sig looks great.

Nice pickups but I love that Vlad patch!

He is, yep. Only missing a few oddball/regional issues. Less than 20% of the Beckett checklist.
