27 years in the making

 I could spin this as my youngest (Hunter) just turned 27 on Jan. 30th, but I'm not, No....this is about something else from 1999. 






1999 Upper Deck. These were the last three cards needed to complete that set. 27 years in the making. These 3 cards actually came in today. There were 2 others that came in last month from the same trader, plus these 3 card numbers but from the stadium club set by mistake. I reached out to him and he said oops. He then reached out to the guy he had traded with to get those original 5 cards and yes he still had these 3. From him to him and then to me. DONE! 

It is always a good feeling when completing a normal size set. Now if I can just do something about those 96' and 97' Upper deck needs to complete them.

Have a great night!
