like I said....so glad you got that STREET YELLOW BROWN! :eek: I was starting to feel guilty owning mine!

since there are only three yellow/brown sc 460 fact #30's Streets known to exist!!! you and I own one...one more left out there that we know of...

as you know, that front back/ combo doesn't exist! in order to have a complete run, and bring you run to a different level, you need the error back if the player was available on that scrap sheet! that card is the the "cherry on top":eek:

congrats my friend! I AM JEALOUS OF YOUR COLLECTION!:D;)


Plank Scrap, Tinker over print front sov, insane scrap, merkle run, street run, pirate cards WTF!:D:).....I'm experiencing collection ENVY:D

please leave me in your will!!lol.....along with Leon...:D

Leon doesn't mind leaving the Matty proof or the Mullaney "rosetta stone of scrap" to me if the time comes.....:D

OH wait! I was dreaming.....:D

Great cards everyone - I never get tired of seeing back runs! I will keep my eyes open for the missing few.

Hi guys. Thanks for the kind words. And Johnny, before you get jealous consider this:

Most of my best cards were acquired through sheer luck.
That Plank scrap? I was the underbidder on three other Planks, and finally decided that I was going all in on the next one. Lucky for me, it turned out to be a unique card.
The Merkle run? I lucked into that one when I picked up a Merkle Uzit on ebay, then followed up a year later by getting the Merkle Brown Lenox. It was only after stumbling into those two that I decided to go for the rest of the run. And the Merkle Piedmont 42? I bought the first Piedmont that I found on ebay. It was only after I received the card that I noticed that it was a Factory 42.
The Pirate? Okay, that was a great pick up. But I've had a few big f' ups as well. None of which I wish to describe now. :o

Well done my friend! I'm in the similar situation.....I have just had great luck and a great eye over the years.....there are a lot I regret letting go like you did

GREAT JOB!

:eek:

I can now enjoy my yellow brown street thanks to Chris;).......felt too guilty before:D

Johnny, here's the rest of the story about your Street scrap:

You got the card from Goodwin (I think) in June 2013. That same night I was negotiating with Mike S. to buy his Street/ Drum. We agreed at about 10PM EST.

After that, I talked to Chris about the card. I told him that I already had a Street/ BL460, so I might as well do a back run. He mentioned the scrap that was for sale that very night, but it was too late to make an initial bid.

I learned later that you got the scrap. If I had made the deal with Mike one day earlier we would have been bidding against each other.

I'm glad it worked out the way it did. :)

You're welcome, guys.

:)

An amazing run! Thanks for sharing!
