When I got home from work last night there was a a nice phat manila envelope sitting on the counter waiting to be torn open.
The return adress was Topps so I knew it was my Diamond giveaway cards.
There was a nice little stack highlighted by the two die-cut cards.
I got the Cory Hart from a redemption code I entered (actually it was my wife’s code). I traded some early ’60s commons in my account for the Danny V.
I like the look of the cards.
I have been a fan of Valencia since he was in the minors and have always liked Cory Hart. He is a solid B level player that has shown signs of greatness.
The cards have a little clear plastic protective cover. I don’t plan on ever selling these so I pulled that crap off.
What about other folks? Did you leave on the film or peal?
-K-
Pealed my only one, of Kershaw.
I’ve got the seven Cubs….peeled them all!
They’re almost ugly if you don’t peel them. I’ve got 5 and peeled them all the instant I got ‘em.
My two are still in the plastic holders they shipped in – I didn’t even realize there was another layer of plastic involved.
I peeled mine. They are for my collection so I want them looking their best.
