Just got a new Top 10 favorite card in today

[Steve_O_21]

Got a couple of Brandon Rush Topps Chrome items in today. I keep telling myself I'm not going to but I'll probably end up trying for the rainbow of this set as well.

Then I got this in today from shaqman in a trade that we did recently. Very surprised I got it so fast considering he's in Belgium. I'm vouching for this guy being a quality trader. Your end is getting shipped out today.

This card has quickly jumped into my top 10 favorite cards that I own. I had no idea just how cool these were in person.

Pacers Legend from the ABA days, George McGinnis. This is #'d 77/99, which is kinda cool considering a little back story about the Pacers...

A '77 telethon saves the team
Elmer Snow, then general manager of WTTV (Channel 4), which aired the Pacers games, offered to hold a telethon to keep the team in Indiana. The telethon began on the night of July 3, 1977 in the 500 Ballroom of the Indiana Convention Center. Ten minutes before going off the air, Nancy Leonard, wife of the Pacers' coach, announced that season ticket sales had topped 8,000. The telethon helped assure the Pacers a second season in the NBA.

I would strongly suggest making the Gervin one of your next purchases. These cards are so damn cool. I have got to get my hands on one of the Brandon Rush redemptions after seeing this.
