A Penny Sleeve For Your Thoughts |
Monday, April, 15, 2024
Back in 2020 I received my first ever envelope from a person, or persons, unknown. Now, a little over four years later, I've received my second.
My first three 2023 football cards. For a modern set, the design of this Legends subset isn't that bad. I like the the bright blue and green elements. And of course, the Prizm looks much better in person than it does here.
My favorite card of the envelope is the one I led off the post with. Normally, I probably wouldn't like this sort of card, but for some reason it just works for me. Plus too, I so rarely get any Dickerson's anymore, so I really appreciate being able to add something new to his collection.
Many thanks to the mystery sender, whoever they may be. If you were going for the element of surprise, you've certainly achieved it!
And as for who may've sent this envelope, I only have two clues...
I guess it's a good thing that this envelope was deliverable, because that's all there was for a return address. Seems like this would narrow down a bit, but I don't have my address visible to everyone on the site, just friends, I think, but I don't think any of those people are in Hartford...
The only person that I know of who has ties to CT is Chris, but this doesn't feel like a Chris sort of mailing. Well, that, and in all of our years of sending things back and forth, Chris has never gone the mystery route, and I don't think he would start doing so now.
[Fun fact: A grandpa of mine, with many greats in front of that title, was one of Hartford's founding fathers]
Not a lot to go on, but more than there was last time. Though, I'm guessing that these mystery envelopes came from two different people, as the contents of said envelopes were polar opposites of each other. Thanks again to whoever went through the trouble to send this!
And on a completely unrelated note...
After over a year in the making, and many months of delayed shipping, my latest COMC shipment has finally arrived! Happy day!
