The November project purchase #2: Kyle Drabek Triple Threads Auto/jersey

I am a sucker for these Triple Threads jersey cards, and when I found this one at such a cheap price, I couldn't say no.

The card knocks off the autograph portion of the requirements, and of course since he's a Blue Jay Drabek fits into the collecting goals as well.

Card Purchased (1):  2011 Topps Triple Threads Auto Jersey Doug Drabek #95/99 (94 cards remaining)
Cost:  $3.99 + $3.00 shipping +$0.42 tax (ugh) =$7.41 ($18.02 total spent, $81.98 left)
How won:  I was the only bid on this auction.  Seller is mk0914

Card took a couple of extra days to get here because of Sandy, but the wait was well worth it.


I like everything about these cards, expect for the price (normally).  The idea of the jersey cutouts forming something that has meaning to the player on the card is a good idea from where I sit.

Still a long way to go, and a nice chunk of change to spend.  

I'm sure I wouldn't have pulled something like this from the Heritage High Numbers...

Thanks for reading, Robert

    It was my first and only Triple Threads, but this Kyle and some of those great Joey Bats relics.
