If you can’t tell I really liked panini hockey for the few years they had the license. Panini Private reserve was inserted into all the hockey products they produced making it a hard chase for these inserts. The Crosby winter classic jersey was the toughest to pull of the three Crosby in the set.

Can never go wrong with the cup. Day 22 of no eBay which is crazy, my wife says it’s weird that I’m not always on my iPad. I guess little steps 🙂

The 2011 national in Chicago. Wish I could go this year it is always a blast. The only year I made to the big show. I only picked up two cards that year and not a Crosby.

All the Mantle fam making the show this have a great week.

An all time great.

One of my favorite cards as it just reminds me of the 1998 contenders I opened in college.

Sidney Crosby Contenders Hockey 10/10 rookie ticket.

Happy Sunday Mantle gang.
