Silk Rivera Arrives !

When looking at my player collections I can honestly say I like collecting Mariano Rivera the most at the moment. As rumoured, 2012 is likely going to be his last season after a really great career with the Yankees. Therefore, when I saw his silk Topps 2012 card appearing on the bay I couldn't resist myself. The mailman delivered it this morning !

I like the look & feel of the Silk Collection (numbered to 50) ! Are you chasing these silk versions as well ?

  2. i happened to pull one from a hobby pack - it was a Napoli. was gonna sell it, but i saw it only getting $4 , and it's worth more to me than that because i think it's pretty darn cool looking!

    1. Agree, these "cards" look really nice (and numbered to only 50) so $4 sounds pretty low

  3. Anything with a Ranger on it fits in my collection, including these Silk cards.

  4. I've never seen one of these in person, only on blogs...but Rivera is the perfect choice here.

  5. Nice looking silk card! My only suggestion would be to have the silk part better centered.
