I could picture you joining in 1999, yet still waiting until September of 2001 for the site to actually start. Unless you were around on the fullcount board JV? I don't think you were there...

I figured I'd save some of them for Johnny. Nice Donovan btw, need to find me one like that. My white whale freak is actually the name in the picture. I've seen three, none were at my house though when I saw them

Johnny,

You truly have an amazing collection. I'm very happy that I was able to add to it with the PB miscut.

I owe you a call in the near future.

Happy Holidays!

Default turner, adam, jantz......

I owe all three of you big time for a big card in my collection.....it's guys like you that make a little bird like me grab a worm.....your kindness and not taking advantage of a passionate collector still resonates in my head....i have three of your backs always! just recently jantz you put me on that card that got pulled, i didn't get it, waiting for it to be listed i hope....but that split piedy 42 is still one of my favorites....and turner, the sick 4 back polar bear, you did me right on that card, another favorite of mine.....adam, u did me a solid i don't think i ever could repay your kindness to me


THERE IS SO MUCH CARDBOARD CANDY IN THIS THREAD I THINK I"m BLIND!!!

I WANT THEM ALL!!LOL

This Is a dream thread for me, thanks for getting it going Wonka
