Now for the special one, package number 9: I opened two blaster boxes of 2013 Topps Allen & Ginter. The first one I opened by myself and and it was my first box to open in several years. The next week my son talked me into buying another box and we opened it. It was the first box we ever opened together and we got a Dawson in the last pack. It was pretty special for us. Anyways, we were not interested in anything else other than the Dawson and the Sandberg I pulled in the first box. I sent 22 of the cards I pulled to [MENTION=2196]Ashburn Alley[/MENTION] to help him with his set and he asked me what I wanted for them. I told him I wasn't looking for anything for them but if he ever had some common Cubs cards that he didn't need he could send them my way for my son. The following is what he sent me:

The Rich Hill card is simply beautiful. I have seen these cards in members signatures before but I have never seen one in person and I have a much greater appreciation of these cards now. I can not wait to see my son's face when I show him this card next weekend. He is going to love this card! I truly appreciate this more than you know. Thank you so much.

Thanks, its always good to have a full mailbox when you open it lol.

Haha, I know what you mean. I'm at school, but I have most of my stuff shipped back home, mainly because I do a lot of TTM so I don't know when I'm getting my mail for those and my eBay/PayPal address is for home. I got Monday-Friday's mail yesterday and I had 6 envelopes waiting for me, couldn't have been more excited then lol.

Any 1991 Upper Deck hologram variation experts in the MT? I have already found 4 different holograms. The normal 91 hologram which is beautiful with the 91 popping off the hologram. I have found the 90 baseball hologram which is easy to identify since I just looked at over 3000 of them with the baseballs in the background. The other two I have not seen yet. One has four pretty large 90 in the background. The other has about 12 much smaller 90 in the background.

Just found a 91 UD with a 92 UD hologram on it so I'm at five different holograms and haven't found the hockey one yet.

My older brother recently decided to go back to school to further educate himself. I am very proud of him for doing this. He took a picture of someone in his Spanish class and posted it on FB.

I captioned it:

I didn't want to say anything yesterday before I actually confirmed it. But I am pretty sure you captured something rarer that a 3 moon night. I scoured the Internet and couldn't find anything when I searched except for this picture. You have captured something that not even the Great Steve Irwin could have thought in his wildest "Crikey" dreams he would see. You captured the only known picture of a person trying to learn Spanish through the ancient technique of "OsBROsis". This picture is going to go down in history man!!!

Morning y'all. Is there anything that y'all would like to see that was printed from 52-75? Oddball, regional, or reg issue. I'll see if I can oblige.
