Contest Winnings - The Diamond King

A little while back I was lucky enough to win a great contest put on by Kevin over at the great blog, The Diamond King.  You were allowed to throw your hat into the ring for 3 of the different 7 prize packages posted over a one week period.  One of the prizes I desired to go after was a lot of serial numbered cards.  I saw 2 Giants I needed in the photo so I decided to give it a go.  Low and behold I won the contest.

Here are the goods from the prize package:

 As I mentioned I saw 2 Giants in the scan but in fact there were 4 in the lot!  I needed all four of them too.  The Gary Brown is numbered 20/62, the Matt Cain 69/75, the Jerome Williams 079/100 and the Edgardo Alfonzo 030/100.  All pretty low print runs and great additions to my collection.

 Here are the other serial numbered cards (list by team below) and all could be had in trades if you are interested.

I'll probably hold onto the vintage cards unless you convince me you need them more than I do.

Kevin, thanks for the contest and the great winnings. Some cool cards to add to my collection and some trade bait as well.
