Xmas Loot

Even as I approach my mid 30's my Mom is still adamant that I give her some gift ideas.  This year I was a little later than normal as I was out of town a good bit in early December. That actually worked in my favor as she approached my older brother for some ideas.  My brother is pretty in tune with what I like.  He avoids cards but is always finding great pieces of memorabilia.  

First is my brothers gift. 



Jerry West auto basketball! I have a few nice West pieces in my collection, but this is by far the nicest.  My brother even got a nice case for it.  He can stay my brother for now.....


This was a huge surprise.  Normally my Mom hooks me up with one cool Pirate piece a year, but this year she threw me a curve ball and went the WVU route.  The auto is of former Mountaineer great and NFL Hall of Famer Sam Huff.  What a great surprise.

Back to getting caught up with all the great trade packages tomorrow.  Tonight I'm getting some sleep.

  3. Very cool presents. I think my parents need to start reading your blog (and Gavin's) for ideas.

    1. I have to rely on my brother for this stuff. He is over at my house a good bit so he has a good understanding of what I have. He knows not to fool around with cards because I'm always adding.
