Thanks! Yes, Stephen is unbelievable. I'm still in shock over his kind gesture! This hobby has some of the nicest and kind hearted people I've ever met, and Stephen is definitely one of those people.
Got this in the mail today...also posted in the strawberry rc thread...came from a lady in CA that opened a case of these and sold them by the pack...I should have bought the rickey Henderson and Nolan Ryan racks too...oh well I’m exited to own this and looking forward to getting it into a BBCE holder!!

Been a bit preoccupied this month with a new fur baby in our family. Here's a bit of a backlog of acquisitions this month.
First is an upgrade to my basic Topps set.
Next is an upgrade to my 1996 New York Yankees World Series Champions set.
These are new additions to the aforementioned Yankees set. Centering leaves a bit to be desired but the price tag was super cheap and graded versions of these are in short supply.
I'm putting together a team set for the next three b/c the Barkley in that set is one of my favorites.
Finally, a new addition to my All Time Eagles set. Loved to watch this guy run as a kid! Lives up to his name for sure.
Finally found a Votto 10. Been looking for a long time. Tough card to find, only 448 graded by PSA and only 138 10s. Now just need to track down a Greinke (only 20 10s).

I totally overpaid for it. But I had to have it. Hence my username... I just won the auction tonight. Won’t have it in hand for a few days...
1976 Topps From Vending Sealed COMPLETE SET Aaron Rose Ryan Eckersley RC (PWCC)
Complete 660/660 Card Set - From Vending - Sealed
On the market this month is perhaps one of the most intriguing and special '76 Topps sets we've brokered in our long tenure. The offered set was collated back in 1976 from various vending boxes, which was then wrapped and sealed in brown kraft paper. The set has been held within this seal since 1976, never opened or traded; comes from the original owner. Featured within is many key HOFers and stars with many of the cards expecting to hold high-grade attributes as all came straight out of vending boxes. This set really hits the hearts of collectors and could very well be considered museum worthy. A one of a kind offering which comes highly recommended by PWCC.
I cannot hit curveball. Straightball I hit it very much. Curveball, bats are afraid. Collecting: post world war II HOF rookie 76 topps gem mint 10 commons 9 stars Arenado purple refractors(Rockies) Red (Cardinals) successful deals with Keevan, Grote15, 1954, mbogoman
I like it - feels like a high upside gamble, especially given your affinity for that specific set. Good luck man - hope you get a handful of wow moments in that box.
Thanks brad and hallmark. I am going to open it for sure. And hopefully find some cards to submit for grading. Fingers crossed.

Able to find one with no black specks with decent centering....If it wasn't for Covid I'd have far more money in my checking...Just when I get out ...they pull me back in.....
That is a beauty. I looked for 3 years to find a nicely centered 9.

Mr. Dempsey is one of many '52 Topps players to find decently centered, really hard to find a good one of him. Just got this one.
That is one helluva nice 5 Piggs ! Great pickup.
