Posted By: <b>Elliot</b><p>As most of you know, I collect the C56 hockey set. It is the first hockey set, issued in 1910-11. Cards are similiar to the t206 cards. Anyway, I needed 7 commons (not that common, actually, as the cards are hard to find) to complete the set. Imagine my surprise when I received a phone call from a dealer telling me that he was shipping out to me the 7 cards that I needed. Apparently, a number of posters and lurkers from the board got together and decided to get me a farewell present after my time as moderator. Not sure, if they were just thankful to see me go. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><BR><BR>I just wanted to thank everybody who contributed for the thoughtful, generous and unnecessary present. It was a blast being moderator of the board, and I certainly didn't expect to receive anything for something that I enjoyed. I think this just goes to show what a wonderful community we have.<BR><BR>thanks again<BR><BR>Elliot<BR><BR>P.S. A special thanks to Lee Behrens for organizing things.

A GIGANTIC THANK YOU

A GIGANTIC THANK YOU

Posted By: <b>Julie Vognar</b><p>Those are of course MY cards--I think only the Lester Patruick is up to Elliot's standards! (I hope it is). The rest are lower-grade.
