I’ve had Xavier Musketeers season tickets for over two decades. About five years ago, I began adding Xavier players to my collection.

Colby Jones is the most recent to go from Xavier to the NBA, and I’ve built a big collection of his cards.

When this Choice Nebula 1/1 surfaced, I jumped all over it. Just got it in yesterday’s mail, and it’s definitely the most excited I’ve been for a delivery in ages!

Mail day! Here’s the most recent addition to my collection of Elite Deck inserts.

In my defense, my friend Bob and I were left unsupervised. Hear me out...

On Friday night, we went to the Dallas Card Show in Cincinnati (actually hosted in Northern Kentucky—don't get me started on how confusing that is.)

In the past, Bob and I have nerded out at plenty of card shows together. This one did not get off to a great start. However, everything changed when Bob told me I needed to see what was a few tables away.

The 1992 Dream Team Starting Lineup set—in GREAT condition. (I've been looking for one on and off for years.) When I asked the father & son at the table to name their price, they told me, "No, we're not selling things individually. We're selling by the (Home Depot) box." A relative had passed and they wanted to clear out as much as possible.

They made me an offer I couldn't refuse; two boxes loaded with Starting Lineup for what I would have happily paid just to get the 92 Dream Team.

2 medium sized Home Depot moving boxes.

82 Starting Lineup boxes.

101 figures.

Full list in the comments. Let me know if you want one...or a dozen.

The Dream Team 🇺🇸

It doesn’t get much more iconic than this. I love 1991 Skybox and the Dream Team cards. Sadly, until a few years ago I had no idea this card existed; everyone thinks of the three cards you put side by side by side (#544, 545, 546). Part of the challenge with finding this card is there’s no number.
