This one was on the cusp of my range, but also happened to coincide with a 10% eBay bucks promotion, so that led me to pulling the trigger on a card I had kept an eye on for a long time:
Oooh, so shiny and gold. And autographed. This one is numbered to 50 copies. It was one of the highest print run Hensleys I still didn't own.
This marks my 121st different Ty Hensley. Trading Card Database says there are 244 Hensleys. Basically, the only ones I'm missing are ones /1, /10, and from that fake brand Leaf Rize.
And in case you're wondering, I am the #1 Hensley collector on the site. I'm also #1 for Tino, and will be for Clarke Schmidt once I add my cards of his to the site.
Ty is also a really good follow on Instagram for anyone on the platform. I look forward to watching him once again take the mound this spring, and hopefully latch on with an affiliated team!
I love his pitching face.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new acquisition and for being the #1 Hensley/Tino/C.Schmidt collector!
Congrats on the great pickup and for being the best on TCDB in three elite player collections.
ReplyDeleteI've yet to sign up for TCDB (don't think I ever will TBH) but if I did I think I'd end up being like the #4 Torrens collector.
That shine is impressive and being the top collector for three guys is pretty darn cool. Congratulations. I doubt I'd come close for anyone on TCDB. At one time, maybe Owen Nolan.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being #1. Gold chromes are super nice cards to have.
