It came from the 90s: a 14 year project comes to a close (scans)

A long labor of love (or madness) has finally come full circle. Since I returned to collecting in the early 90s, my primary collecting focus has always been Dodger team sets (and yeah, that Butler dude). I started out trying to complete Topps and Bowman sets from '48 on up, but when Fleer (among others) introduced their premium full-bleed cards, I had to have those as well. It was simple enough to complete the base Ultra sets, and then the Gold Medallions that were introduced in '94. As player collectors from the 90s know, Ultra upped the ante in '97 with the introduction of the Platinum Medallion parallels. I've been chasing those damn things ever since. Wayne Kirby and Todd Worrell eluded me for 14 years, and then all of a sudden Kirby showed up on eBay - $3.25, and I would have gladly paid whatever it took. First time he's popped up that I know of (high series). I'm pretty stoked - it had been a long stinkin' time since I hit the ol' PM list. The next week I decided to take more than a cursory look at COMC, and I'll be darned if Worrell wasn't sitting there for $2.95. Didn't even bother haggling - purchase NOW!
blah, blah, blah - stop talking already. Here they are:
