It's like you took the words right out of my mouth. I was going to mention the Lajoie and the Leaf Ruth in my first post (as tribute cards) but I thought those were kind of obvious. I'll own those cards someday as well. I have no problem with tribute cards if they have some significance within the hobby and the Gibson certainly has that.
