TTM Success! Carey Price

Sorry about the lack of updates everyone, hopefully I can pitch in a little more on the blog and keep its head above the water for the time being.

I was happy to wake up this morning to find a self-addressed stamped envelope waiting for me at the end of my hallway, which only means one thing - a TTM success.

Carey Price signed and returned 1 out of the 2 cards that I had sent away to have inked back on June 28, 2011.  I guess he liked the custom card so much that he decided to keep it for himself?

Price became a highight during this years All-Star Weekend for showcasing his sense of humor during the Skills Competition's breakaway challenge.  If you've seen it then you know what I mean.

Here's an article I found earlier in regards to Carey, the All-Star Weekend and his love for autograph collecting.

Thanks Carey!

2010-11 Pinnacle

5 pack bust of the newest Pinnacle released by Panini. 10 cards per pack.

I really like the base set of these cards, there are a lot of very interesting looking shots on the front of the cards and the reverse includes a small paragraph long summary captioning the image.

My First Send Off

Now that Canada Post is going back to work, I can finally send out my first few TTMs that I had made over the past couple of days!

Don Cherry, Theoren Fleury and Carey Price.  Love how all of these cards came out; no complaints really, just the way I had imagined.  They were kinda hard to let go - It's almost like sending them off to war, knowing full well that there`s a chance that I may never see them again.  But that whole gamble makes it a little more exciting and I bet the experience is that much more sweeter when you receive a response.
