A fine Finnish gentleman ran this one down for me in trade for a rare Finnish issue of another player. I have dealt with so many Europeans, especially Finns, over the years in the building of my collection and they have been amazing people to deal with. I have only seen a very few of these ever, so acquiring this one is exciting and a key addition to my collection. Thought I'd show it here as it is a lesser seen item.
*(my apologies Irv, I know you've seen it elsewhere)
Great story and great pick up, Rob.
I don't blame you one bit for sharing it on every forum you belong too.
I know I would as well.

Thanks Irv, I appreciate that. One of these days I'll do a European only Kurri show, would be fun just to dig it all out haha.

Some recent additions that all arrived together again today.
Unfortunately, I don't think I will be keeping the Larry Robinson as it arrived not as described due to a fairly large noticeable crease in the bottom left corner that goes through to the back. (It wasn't noticeable in the scan nor much in this screw down but is clearly visible out of it)

That's a nice little mix. Love the Lafontaine especially. Tough luck on the Robinson, that's frustrating, hope you can find a nice one. Was never a big fan of that 73/74 set until I ran across a real nice lot I couldn't pass up, now I'm a few cards away from a second set haha.

I've had some sh*t luck lately in this regard. This, I believe, is my 3rd "not as described" card I have received in the past 4-6 months.
I recently went through another headache with a dealer from B.C., who, when I asked for his total shipping cost, replied with, "4 flat rate"?
I kindly asked him what that meant exactly but didn't get a reasonable reply so I walked.
Lots of new ebay sellers so some shenanigans shouldn't be surprising from time to time I suppose but the guy from B.C. had a large feedback score so I'm not sure what he was up to?

I thought I had noticed that you had that happen more than once recently. I'm a big Kellogg's collector, and you just have to throw condition descriptions out the window almost with those. If its not a great pic and I can't be sure, I pass. There are a couple of solid Kellogg guys I tend to do repeat business with. Hope your luck improves.

Good News: I picked up this '51 Parkhurst Ted Lindsay HOF RC!
Bad News: I discovered some mistakes on my wantlist and had to add back on about ten cards that for some reason I had marked off Now 1/2 way completed at 53 have and 52 need.
