Today, October 15, 2009, will go down as the happiest day of my card collecting life.
As many of you know, over the past few months I have been selling off a lot of my high-end Futera inserts - mainly signatures, which was a very hard thing to do after working so hard to put them all together.
But fortunately I never had to resort to listing them on eBay, so many of you - namely Richo, Grant, Dan and Liam - were able to add them to your collections, which has been satisfying to know they have all gone to good homes. :v:
But before you start feeling too sorry for me, there has been a very good reason for this cleanout of my high-end stuff.....because the ultimate Futera cricket card - in fact the ultimate cricket card full stop - is now in-hand!!
May I present to you the 1993/94 Futera Allan Border Gold Seal signature redemption card - #42/50!!
And to make it even sweeter, according to the Futera File, only 20 of the 50 Gold Seals have matching numbers with the signature card and the certification card - as you can see below, this is one of the 20!
Here she is!!! The white whale!!

The fact he had 2 was the only reason he was prepared to part with this one.
