Default Thank you, Secret Santa

My Secret Santa put a lot of effort into gifting me six different cards. I am always happy to get any Phillies cards, especially a pre-war Hall of Famer. I was only marginally familiar with the W516 set previously, so I was not even aware that poor Dave Bancroft was misnamed in the set.

You can't get much different than pre-war baseball and modern Formula One racing, but thank you, Secret Santa, for including one of my other interests. Ayrton Senna is one of my favorite drivers to collect because he was such a compelling (and tragic) figure, but I did not have any cards from the 1992 Grid set. I love any Senna cards that I did not have.

The Senna card is also the first time I have had a CSG slab in hand. They feel a little more substantial to me than some other slabs.

Thanks again for all your effort, Secret Santa. I love the cards.
