I've been Helton'd - which is way better than Alomar'd!

I had a box in the mailbox today. It was postmarked "Acworth, GA." That can only mean one thing: Dayf sent Tribecards a package! And what a great surprise inside!

First up, a selection of Indians and a can! The 1997 Pinnacle Inside "card-in-a-can" is very cool! I don't have one of those, er, I didn't until Dayf sent me this beauty. I'll save the speculation: No. I'm not opening the can to get to whatever cards (there are 10 of them) are hidden inside.  The Indians are vintage! 1971 Phil Hennigan, 1972 Fred Stanley, 1965 Sam McDowell, 1974 Rusty Torres, and a 1956 Chico Carrasquel! Holy freakin' cow!

Also in the box? How about some packs to add to the break!? Yeah, buddy! And, one pack even shows an Indians player waiting to be freed from the cello!

The last thing in the box was a hand-wrapped, hand-sketched "Oh Noez Helton'd" deck of cards. There were more than EIGHTY Todd Helton cards! My son was awestruck, and is extremely thankful for the generous gift! He went from just learning who Helton is to a handful of Helton cards to suddenly finding himself well on the way to having a Helton collection!

Thank you so much, Dayf! These are unbelievable gifts! I am still ooo-ing and aahh-ing over the vintage Indians and that crazy can!

Some very cool cards from Pedersej!

Somehow, this envelope of goodies got mixed in with several packs I had bought, and I didn't see it until now!  These little goodies came from Pedersej! These are FANTASTIC additions to my Tribecards collection!! Thank you so much for your generosity!!

Tribe Cards! No, really, I mean Tribe cards!

I've been meaning to post these for a few days, but just hadn't done it between our mini vacation/getaway and biffing various aspects of the giveaway.

A good while ago, I received two packages in the mail. One came from Oscar and the other from Crackin' Wax.  My apologies to both of you, but I don't remember which cards came from which sender, (and I'm sure I have mixed them up) but I am lovin' all the Tribers in these mailers.

Now, you may be asking yourself, "What is that Warren Spahn doing in there?" I have no idea. I'm guessing it was part of the break/contest/gift from which these cards were a part. Then again, maybe it was just a "happy accident."

In any case, THANK YOU very much to Oscar and Crackin' Wax for these cards!
