The price tag on my Linden cards in the 10/11 campaign has by far been the most inflated of any other year. That said, this pickup came to me for a bargain - maybe even a steal.

This one finishes the Limited 'Legend' parallels. It's the first time that has ever happened. I am the only one on the face of this earth who has every parallel of this card. I think that's kind of cool.

I saw this card pop up on ebay one night when I just happened to do a search at the right time. The card had been up for all of a couple minutes. The 'Buy It Now' price was half of what I expected the card to be.
I couldn't hit the buy button fast enough. I was thrilled to land this card.
While I'm getting sick of this pose from Linden (this photo's been used on two different product releases by Panini), I don't think I'll ever get sick of seeing the '1/1' on the back.

Here's his 'twin' 1/1. They now sit side by side in my Linden case.

And while this card would rank at the top of the list most years, I think this the 'Trevor Linden Card Of The Year' for 2011 might be the one I present to you next.
Stay tuned.....it will only get better.
I'm not exactly thrilled with them mentioning me on the back writeup. I may have to contact my lawyer....
ReplyDeleteWhat....you're not proud of the fact that you're Vancouver's all-time leader in games played.
