Every participant will receive a 1953 Brown & Bigelow Babe Ruth from a deck I recently opened. I have 52 to give away.

Hi guys! Welcome to the Third Annual Net 54 Secret Santa holiday exchange!

Here is the rules and timeline:

1. Nov 30th is the cutoff to enter.

2. Gifts should be sent on or before December 10th (Make sure it gets there on time!!!!!!!)

3. Gifts should be valued at $25 or greater. I will do my best to give each SS their interests for both giving and receiving.

4. When sending the gift add "N54SS" somewhere visible so it is not opened early! Please open gifts on or after the 25th.


If you would like to participate please PM me your info, it should include:

E-mail Address
Real Name
User Name
Address

Pick one of the following categories and include your "want" from that category. Ex: 1920 and earlier "T206".
1920 and earlier
1921-1940
1941-1949
1950-1967
1968-1979
Modern
Memorabilia

What you can give should be fairly similar to what you would like to receive. There are no guarantees you will get exactly what you want but I will do my best to match up individuals with similar interests.

Derek - Just send info from first post. I hand select all matches.
Tucker - No one has requested it, but if there are others it should be okay. I will do my best to match.
Sean - You got it.

List is being updated now.

awesome, Ill let you know what i am contributing this weekend. Thanks :)

Just bumping this to the top so we can get more people involved in it.

Bumping Back to 1st Page

I will be back tomorrow and
update the list

Sean, as you know I don't do cards....if you can match me up with another memorabilia collector (I have tons of publications, photos etc.), I would love to participate again. My Secret Santa was very generous last year and it was much appreciated.

Thanks,

Jeff

Black Friday bump

I'll participate
 

I'll participate. Lmk Sean

You can follow the instructions in the first post...

PM sent Sean. Never done this before, sounds pretty cool.

Last day bump. Thanks again Sean for holding this

PM's are being sent out now.

One set of "Santas" has each other because they are the only two with those interests - I felt it was best to get them each their give want rather than remain anonymous.

There were also a group of 4 that I was able to get 'close', but not exactly what you wanted.

Everyone else should be in their wheelhouse :D

I did my best!

Let the festivities begin!

Sean - did you forget about me??

Derek, I just checked and I have no PM from you in the past month.

Derek, just send me something - I buy all your "B/S/T" cards anyway ;-)

Hope you get in somehow.

Very funny Mark! But true! I'll send you something for Christmas as my most valued customer!!

Anyway, Sean - I just checked my sent box and didn't see anything to you (although I specifically remember sending you a PM stating that I'm a "rookie" collector but would do anything pre-war). Oh well, I'll be on the look-out for next year's Secret Santa!

Good luck to all!!

Derek - drop me a pm I will see what I can work out. Anyone else do the same. Please.

Sean,

If need be, Derek can have my "recipient" spot. And I will still ship a gift to the person whose info you sent me today via PM.

The Net54 Secret Santa tradition has been very good to me. I am more than happy to let someone else receive my gift while getting nothing in return personally.

After all, the holidays are a time of giving.

Best regards,

Eric

My gift is leaving tomorrow morning by priority mail.

Thanks Sean for putting this together.

Jeff

Secret Santa 2014
 

Realizing I'm a new member and fairly unknown to the group, I put up my Wish List at http://jasoncards.wordpress.com/about/.

No worries, Santa, if you don't have anything on my list. But if it helps at all, it's there for you.

Jason

P.S. No, I'm not expecting anything on that top row!

My Secret Santa gift is leaving in the mail today. Hope someone enjoys it!

Mine will ship out tomorrow. Have printed the priority label & need to find out where the Xmas wrapping paper is hidden.
