The First of a Group of Posts

 I'm sure my friends and readers have been wondering where I've been. I'm still in the hospital. I'm here until I get some solution for housing. One area I'm looking at has a 10 year waiting list. Another I have no idea.. Third option... Well.. I'll usually be the youngest by decades and dealing with regular outbreaks. So feeling rather stuck. At the same time, glad I'm at least in a place I have support. 

Ok.. I do have some cards to show off. Today is a couple small things I received. One from the Royals Team Collector, the other is an anonymous card with some cards I needed in it. 

First are the cards from the Royals TC Matt. I'm using a scanning app on  my phone, so if they look a litle warped, that's why.


Gallery was always an interesting concept to me. Much better than the Project 70 crap. 

This was the note that came with the cards below. No name on it, no return address.. Complete mystery..

Some Jays and Expos minor league cards, or more to the point, draft pick cards from Classic.



I always liked the history cards that were in the Pro Set sets. Here we have a few more. 
I still have a box break I was part of and an order from COMC. Those will be shown over the next few days. I hope 2022 is a good one for everyone, or at least less of a shitshow than the last couple years..

  2. Those early 90's Pro Set hockey sets were awesome. The team cards had fantastic team history summaries which helped me learn a little about each team when I was just getting into the sport.

    1. Thanks. I've been in the hospital for close to a year now. Currently living here until I get something in either Long Term Care or in affordable housing. Since everyone is NIMBY about affordable housing, I doubt that situation will be helped in the next little while. (10 year waiting list) I also put in for assisted housing, where it's basically independent, but there are people on hand if you need help with things.

  4. Love '90s Pro Set hockey! Getting ready to send a few cards to you. Hope your mailing address still works.

    1. Yeah I'm still getting stuff delivered to my Rubidge address and the landlord brings it over from time to time.

  5. Mystery mailers are at both times fun, and annoying. Fun because of the mystery, but annoying because you don't know who to thank.
