Christmas in July From Noah

I received a package yesterday from my good friend, Noah, that had the Christmas gifts that he meant to send me back at, well, Christmas.  Noah has been really busy lately, so it was understandable that the package came a bit... late.

No worries, though, as it got here, and there was a lot of good stuff inside.  The above 2012 Triple Threads Eddie Murray is a nice addition to the collection.  The card is numbered 25/36.

Here is a Tim Berry auto from last year's Bowman Chrome.  Berry was a decent minor leaguer for the O's and developed into a pretty good story, after being drafted in the 30th round.  He got called up by the Orioles, but didn't make it into a game.  He is now out of the organization.

This 2013 Bowman Chrome black wave refractor auto of Josh Hart is numbered 2/50.  I love the different Bowman Chrome variations.  It is too bad that Topps stopped the wave refractors.

Thank you for the package, Noah!

Ebay Pickup - 2012 Topps Triple Threads Brooks Robinson

Before I continue on with thoughts about 2014 Topps, I wanted to show the other item that I got in the mail yesterday, this 2012 Topps Triple Threads Brooks Robinson.  The ebay listing was shown to me almost a month ago by my good friend, P. A.  He told me he thought the card should find its way into my Brooks PC.  Well, I added it to my watch list and let the auction end twice before I finally allocated the funds for it.

As you can see, it has a ton of pieces of jersey and is numbered 17/18.  It definitely will look amazing in my Brooks PC, which is where it is headed at this moment.

Thanks for letting me know, P. A.!
