MY COLLECTION - A Trifecta of Gorgeous Graphs

One sweet mailday today! From what I consider the best autograph set of all time comes three fantastic signature cards.

And I'm not saving the best for last. The top card gets top billing here.

#70 Cesare Maniago
Autograph Parallel

BAM!!! This is a sweet autograph hard signed on my favorite card from my favorite set. Need I say more?

OK....That vintage mask Maniago is sporting is killer! The vintage uniform, the vinatge equipment! The card design itself. Absolute perfection.

And wait, there's more from this set.

Autograph Parallel

A great autograph from a 50's/60's era player. Why is it that a card so simple in design is so rarely produced?

This is the perfect set - plain and simple.

OK....last one.

This is what really sells me on this set. It's transcends the different eras of hockey, it includes a very eclectic mix of players and once again - the signatures are on the card. No stickers here.

Two of these cards completes my 'One Sheet, One Set' for the Parkhurst auto parallels (with the Maniago going into a new project - All-Time Greatest Cards). The 'One Sheet, One Set'....you guessed it...it'll get the first (and maybe only 5 out of 5 rating).
