Not a big hockey collector, but I like this card. He looks like he is ready to go after somebody there, and that's the way he played too.

Nice card Al, love those early Bruins cards.

I am happy to have picked up this very hard to find book from 1977. It's an oversized 10 1/2" x 9 1/2" book with full page illustrations of some of the great goalie masks (like the one on the cover) worn up to 1977. First edition copies like this one are hard to find from author Michael Cutler. The best part is the $3 it cost me.

Pretty good price, imo, for this Sanderson RC.
Yours definitely looks better centered than this copy, Anthony.

A few recent modern P/U's of a couple up and coming players that are fun to watch and are doing great so far.
Adam Fox won the Norris last year.
His Young Guns and an OPC Platinum Rainbow.
Jason Robertson Young Guns

Irv,

As a B’s fan I’m not big on the Rangers but Adam Fox is the real deal and a long term D stud. Nice cards.

I'm sure Calgary and Carolina would love to have him on their team but that's the way it goes.
We'll likely never know, but I'm wondering if what he did, by attending college another year, was all planned? Being NY boy, born and raised, I'm sure he is thrilled beyond believe to be playing for his home state?

"How did Adam Fox become a Ranger?

Fox was selected by the Calgary Flames, 66th overall, in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft, but opted to go to college. ... In June 2018, Calgary traded Fox's NHL rights to the Carolina Hurricanes, who traded them to the New York Rangers in April 2019. He left college a year early, and made his NHL debut for the Rangers in 2019"

That's a beautiful card from one of the best sets of all time! I just love the tallboys

Here's my first from the 1923-24 Paulins set. Low grade all the way for me on this set....

I've since picked up 16 more including the Newsy Lalonde but am waiting on delivery. I always wanted to collect this set as a kid so thought I might as well start.

[sedin26]

I've also started working on the 55-56 Quaker Oats set - here are my first 5.

Very cool, Scott. Not an easy issue. I was pleased to add one card of one of my all-time favorites at the last National I attended:

Guess I've been on a bit of a modern run lately regarding hockey cards.

Just finished scanning this one. A Mitch Marner Young Guns. Phenomenal player, imo, but because of the Auston Mathews factor, he doesn't get the love he deserves.

Agreed 100%. Such a skilled player, one of my favorites to watch. I might have to pickup that YG myself
