While going through my old mail, I found a priority mail envelope that I was going to save for the bubble wrap. I was just about to toss it when I saw a dark shape inside. I reached in and found what I believe is a 2017 Topps Silver pack. I still have to research it because I've never owned any of that product. Anyway, there was a Carlos Correa SN 8/10 Autograph inside! Yay!!

A stroke of luck that you paid attention to the envelope before tossing it.

I remembered that I bought a hobby box last year and the pack was supposed to be included. The assumption was that the pack would be inside the box itself, but I must have forgotten about it and never checked the envelope. ------------------------------- Please, no PWE trades!
