Secret Santa Revealed!


Matt from the blog Bob Walk The Plank held a Secret Santa exchange with his fellow bloggers, and I jumped at the chance to join in. Last week I received my mystery gift.

My Secret Santa was none other than Tyler from Rekindling The Cardboard Flame, and I must have been a good little blogger this year because Santa came through in a big way!

Nothing like opening up a Christmas package and finding lots and lots of Red Sox cards!

Love those Card History inserts!

Including a complete Series 1 team set of 2008 Topps, which is awesome because I wasn't collecting when these came out!

Ooohhh! Pedroia ASR and ROY!

The big gift, however....


An autographed card of Luis Tiant! If I ever get a proper man-cave set up, this will look nice to the ball I have signed by him. (He's even signing a ball on the card!)

Thanks again Tyler! Merry Christmas to all!

    1. Yeah, same here! Compared to what I received, I'm afraid that what I sent out might seem lame by comparison...

    2. I'm sure your guys' gifts will be great! I think most everyone will be appreciative of whatever cards get sent their way!

    3. I hope, but as more and more are coming out, I'm nervous. I thought it was a $10 limit, so I spent just slightly over that. A lot of these had to be way more than that. I will probably have to make it up later. It's a guilty feeling for me.

  3. This was definitely a solid Secret Santa gift!

  4. Too bad Tiant didn't get the call to Cooperstown. Personally I think he was more deserving than Morris. Maybe next time. Sweet card, anyway.

  5. Cool having an autographed Tiant card that shows him signing a ball. Nice package. 2008 Topps I at one time love/hated, now I mostly love it.
