It's been a while since I've been able to post any new additions to my collection. I've had numerous medical issues the past 28 months that has left me unable to afford any new pickups, and especially no new box breaks. I have been able to keep myself occupied, and somewhat satisfied by selling a bunch of cards that I could do without. With the proceeds, and quite a lot of trades, I've been able to put a huge dent in the 06-07 Parkhurst Hockey auto set, I've so anxiously wanted to persue. That set will take some time as it's a 146 autographed set, and several of the cards are very expensive short prints. Not sure how I'm gonna get those, but I'm not dismayed as of yet.
Anyways, I entered 2 different racing contests held on another site, and magnificantly won both contests, both on the same day. For my troubles, I received 2 very nice race used sheet metal cards that are posted below. The first one is the actual Nascar sticker from the sheet metal of the 99 car, and the other one is 3 pieces of sheet metal off the cars of Ryan Newman, Tony Stewart, and Danica Patrick. The scans are nice, but they look much nicer in person. I'm mostly an autograph collector, but these are way too cool to move, so I'm holding onto them for now.
A while back I decided to work on a 2011 Showcase race used set, but plans got put on hold because of my situation. Tonight I was able to add another multi-colour piece (firesuit, and sheet metal) of Jeff Burton, and with any luck, I will be able to continue on with this project in the near future. Sorry for the long read. Here are my new additions below.
