It feels like a lifetime

 

One of the very rare non-card posts you'll ever see on this blog.  19 years since the Leafs have advanced.  

I'm a happy guy this evening.  

See you in round 2

#LeafsForever

righting a wrong, and nearly finished righting a wrong

Yep, almost two months again between posts.  Been a lot happening, including a two-week illness, and the stress of wondering if I'm going to have a job next week after more than two decades with the same company.  

So a lot of time has been spent away from the hobby again.  Who knows?  Maybe in a few days I'll have more time to spend on cards, but we'll see.

While thumbing my way through twitter earlier this morning, I found a tweet from the Night Owl giving us a quick glance at the nice haul of cards he picked up at the card show recently.  It was a great group of cards, and I made a quick comment/question about the '79 Football binder he displayed.

It reminded me of the fact that it's been a while since I posted, so I needed to sit at the computer and start writing a little.  I recently received a box shipment from Sportlots, and there were 4 cards in there that were from a set that I had put together, sold many years ago, and now I'm working on putting it together again.

4 more cards off the 84-85 OPC want list, bringing the want list down to 20.  If you're curious about the want list, here it is:

5, 17, 18, 67, 121, 208, 213, 239, 241, 243, 249, 254, 255, 327, 339, 357, 373, 380, 383, 385

Not much, except a few Gretzky cards and Rookie cards of the big names in the set.  One day I'll have this set put together, again, and I'll have righted a wrong that happened a long time ago.

Hopefully.
