I made a new friend recently via this blog, which is something I truly enjoy. He just recently started a blog, Erik's Sports Cards, which I recommend you all take a look at and follow. Anyway, after my box break of 2013 Topps Series 2, Erik emailed me asking if I had pulled the David Ortiz Boston Strong SP, which I hadn't. He had told me in the email that the card held a special meaning to him, so I took a look around online and found one on Ebay for a really cheap price. I picked up the card for him and sent it to him, asking for nothing in return.
I'm not one who likes to broadcast my charitable endeavors because I enjoy just doing nice things for folks. Reading the email Erik sent me afterward and the post on his blog that followed was something I really enjoyed. I'm so glad that some small gesture on my part meant so much to a guy who is seemigly getting started in this awesome hobby of ours.
Erik surprised me when I got a package in the mail today that contained this 2013 Topps Blue Sparkle Tommy Hunter. I sincerely didn't want anything in return for the Ortiz card, but I appreciate his thought in sending something back. The card is beautiful and Hunter's cremecicle jersey really pops off of it.
Thanks so much for the card, Erik! I really appreciate it and I hope you continue to add to your blog!
