Secret Santa Was Good to Me

Secret Santa was really good to me this year.  Jared at the blog Cards My Mom Didn't Throw Out did me right.  Thank you so much Jared.  It starts with this Bob Horner auto - 2019 Donruss Optic Significant Signatures.  Great card and as I told Jared I've made it a goal to complete my Horner collection as best I can in 2020 so this is a wonderful start.  Thanks to Jon at A Penny Sleeve for your Thoughts blog for once again running the Secret Santa gift exchange this year.

He also nailed it with 82 Atlanta Braves cards that are great for the collection.  They hit on so many personal favorites and were needs.  Many are some I've never seen which is always fun.  These three are all PC guys and Braves greats.
Some old school Braves greats were included as well.  I love these guys and I have so few old school Burdette and Niekro cards.  
That's a sweet Albies card and Freddie is such a stud.  Is that a cool looking Klesko or what?  I'm digging it.
There were also some PC guys to include these three guys.  Baines makes that White Sox uni look good.


There were also 72 Red Sox cards and all great players.  It was star after star BoSox player here.  And that Clemons photo seems fitting for some reason.  He really isn't the big baddy we all make him out to be but there was definitely an attitude there.  That Pedro and Kimbrel are cool cards for me as well just because of the photos.
  

And there were plenty of shiny cards as well!  Again big thank you to Jared.  Go check out his blog for plenty of Diamondbacks love as well as other cool card posts.  I hope Secret Santa was just as good to everyone else who participated this year.

  Merry Christmas!
