I like that comment - keyboard courage !.... probably a lot of nerdy,goofy,out of shape,overweight,bald, members...that sign in to net 54..pop open a beer ( or stronger !) ..and start typing away...getting bolder and bolder sitting behind their little desk top computer..in the dark...with the TV in the backround tuned to some stupid reality show ...and there they sit ..with the three day old dirty shirt on..and worn out ripped shorts....what I sight !..but they have " keyboard courage" ...
I just cringe at that thought of this in my mind ! Ral G |

I am bald, overweight, out of shape, and usually watching crappy reality TV when on this site. Thanks Ral. Still, manage to pick up a few cards here and there. Got this one a little while back. Looks like it was laminated. Any idea if that was the case?

It looks like smudges to me although it does have a "plasticy" shine to it....does it feel like laminate? Kawika....yours might be the best sig line saying I have seen- "Greetings and Love to One and All" that's quite classic.

It looks and feels laminated to me. The guy I bought it from suggested that it might have had wax applied. My guess would have been lamination, but really not sure what was readily available around the time this was released and whether anyone has come across anything similar. Very familiar with people shellacking balls, but not so familiar with people coating their cards.

It was waxed to make it slightly heavier, which made it easier to toss and lean against the wall it was tossed at. |

I have always regarded jcmtiger Joe's "Ty Cobb, Spikes Flying" as one of the best Net54 sig lines ever. Terse and evocative - a ton of baseball content packed into four short words. But for all around impact it's hard to beat Jay (or was it Lee?) Behren's "Mom upside down is wow". Hard to put a good spin on that one but always was good for a perverted chuckle. What was this thread about again?

Thanks Matt. That is what the seller had said, I just hadn't heard of anyone waxing their cards. I appreciate the confirmation.
