It's a beautiful day here in New Zealand so I've kicked out all my children and parked myself in front of the computer to write up
my first mailday in about a month.
Father of the year!!! Just like Dean Jones!!
Each card will have an amazing fact in a desperate effort to add interest.
Card #1
Fascinating fact - This is the oldest card of all of my 145 #21 cards and was the biggest $$ card in the whole of Classic's 1995 release at $60!! I won it for $11!
Card #2
Fascinating Fact - Uuuummmm - this card looks great in person and was recently voted the most underrated insert of 2002-03 by someone who lives near me.
Card #3
Fascinating Fact - Ever since Timeless treasures came out I'd been hunting down this card like Boba Fett. Then outa the blue I get asked for my addy and this showed up courtesy of SHAWNSPORTSCARDS from HK! It's awesome - only my 2nd #21 card from an 09-10 release! I'd LOOOOVE to find the patch 21/25 version!!!!
And here's the 3rd...
Card #4
Fascinating fact - Ironically TMac is the only dude in on this card smiling and yet he's the only one who hasn't won an NBA title. Fascinating stuff!!! :shock: :shock:
Lastly...
Card #5
I have broken from tradition here and bought a card which is not jersey numbered to #21 from KG's Twolves days. But it was too good a deal and too nice a card...
This is only my 2nd Boston KG card and increases my massive and rarely spoken about #5 collection to..................................two.
Thanks to my good mate Dennis (LOWINMASS) for this deal. He saved me $100's by starting his #5 collection, allowing me to save and focus on #21 cards!! He was also kind enough to send me this freebie...
You're a good man Dennis and I really hope things are going well for u and Dawn!
Ooops -
Fascinating Fact - I'm gonna double up here cos these are going so well....
Firstly - I believe this is KG's first Celtic tag card?? There were plenty of Twolves ones. I may be wrong about this.
Secondly - Aussie collector GarnettFan4Life has the tag #4/6 and it is nearly EXACTLY the same, also featuring the size #52. Who knew!!! Hopefully he'll post it on this thread...
I now need just 5 #21 cards to achieve my goal of 150 #21 cards.
Thanks a lot for looking.

Mate that was a great read. Congrats on so many sweet pick ups and big ups to the fellas that hooked you up with some freebies!!!! You gotta love free stuff!!!
Mate it's crazy how similar they are. When I saw the 5/6 I had to go check out your card as I knew I'd seen it somewhere before!!! Haha!! I guess it shows they've bought at least 2 Boston jerseys.

stunning cards as usual mate.....and as a typical bloody kiwi all those facts were useless i think the fact about the patch card should have stated the patch actually looks like a K for Kevin so it should be a 1/1!
