Bubble gum pink for this post. I was the beneficiary of a package from Bob this week, but first I wanted to say YES we won at trivia on Wednesday night. We led the way all night once again and ahead by 17 points going into the final question, then my brother had a brain fart (he didn't agree on the answer that 4 of us thought was the better answer). The good news is that I made the decision to not wager any points (or put either answer), and that put our fate in the hands of the other 11 teams (slow night). The team that was 17 point behind us didn't wager any points with and came in third and the team that came in second doubled up with the correct answer, but only finished with 85 points giving our 95 the win. YaY!
Now to the cards from Mr. Obert:
The breakdown:
Bob sent 10 cards (I didn't one of them). Six of the cards were autos and I didn't have three of the players before, but still needed all six. So that was a very nice get.
My Braves autos are up to 800.
Total unique Braves players is........ 285.
Always enjoy seeing a Spahn card.
ReplyDeleteThose are some very nice autos. They are more legible than most. Enjoy the hobby all!
ReplyDeleteNice. I got some cards from Bob recently, too. Maybe I'll get those posted today. Maybe.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff there and 800 autographs is impressive. I've never tried to count how many Angels I have.

ReplyDeleteNice cards and autos from Bob! What was the final trivia question?
ReplyDeletein 1904 who did the US purchase the Panama Canal from after efforts by Colombia failed?
DeleteCongratulations on the trivia night win! Bob sent some really cool stuff. Just got a pwe from him this week myself.
ReplyDeleteAnswer: It was a French company created by de Lesseps. Don’t recall the exact name but if you gave me choices I could probably pick it out.
ReplyDeleteI’ve started the David McCullough book “ The Path Between The Seas” 3 times but still haven’t finished it. Great book, but a lot there.
Congratulations on your win.
The answer was simply France
