great story. i liked how bob gave the card to you as a surprise - great surprises are always the best. im sure you would have been super happy had he just emailed you and said the card is yours - but, Bob sounds like that extra special kind of guy to send the card out as a surprise just to make your receipt of the card even more special.

The fact that it came in without me knowing ... amazing. I still have both cards prominently displayed on my desk!

Appreciate you sharing what Bob did for you in regard to your collection. I know from experience there are some really good people within the hobby and know it as a hobby, not life and death. Sometimes the bad apples are the focus and it's nice to hear about some of the good people out there, which many are right here on this board (and posting in this thread).

Thanks Bob for showing what it is to be a good guy...
