This one came in today @ $25.00 delivered. There is a little foil loss but, it still looks great.

Now these were something else that I've been looking for for years:

1998-1999 Monty Sheldon

Just these last few weeks, Monty started releasing his first ever "sketch set". We'll probably end up seeing it in Beckett for 2009. Every card in this set is a 1/1 pencil sketch from Monty himself.

I won the McGwire off the bay so I got the chance to ask him some questions about the mythical '98-'99 promo set I haven't been able to track down. He answered a myriad of questions for me. He's really a great guy.

But what was even more awesome was that after all was said and done, not only did he send me the 1/1, but he also sent me the full set of his promos from '98-'99 (which is actually 44 cards) as well as an auto'd a copy of the McGwire from the set as well!! Talk about awesome!!

Don't remember if I posted this one or not 1997 z-team 8x10. The back of mine only says 0273 sequentially numbered. Never found a print run, and I've never seen another in person. There is a Griffey on ebay (not mine) for $30 if anyone was looking for one. I personally think it's a great price

There are 1000 of them.

I don't know much (anything) about this set but the Griffey he was talking about isn't gold. I assume the golds are probably numbered out of 250 or something.

Nice test! What did that run you? And whats with that Crusade?

Thanks. The Aqueous was more than I wanted to pay...but less than I was willing to. I never thought I'd see one, much less own one. It is, in my opinion, the ultimate White Whale from the era. (I never actually thought I'd use that term...)

This is my first Crusade, and I can't get it to scan very well. My scanner was new in the box three hours ago, so maybe I need to play with the settings. It's an Epson V300, if anyone has any suggestions...

:shock: Looks like someone snatched it up... If it was one of you guys, please post a better scan when you get it in
