Amazing gesture from a great member

VandyCards · 02-01-2023, 08:22 PM

So a few days ago I wake up to a message in my inbox from Emergency Donut (David) saying he hit a Curt Casali card in a break with ClevelandIC and wanted him to just send it to me. Didn’t ask for anything in return, just one collector helping out another.

And today this came in the mail.

Needless to say I am floored with this generosity. Gorgeous card, and easily one of the top cards in my Casali PC.

Even though he didn’t ask for anything, I know David is a Darin Ruf collector (giants uni) and Giants/O’s collector generally. I’m combing through my collection to see what might be a special return, but if anyone has anything Ruf and giants, please let me know!

Really a nice day at the mailbox and VandyCards household!

I like seeing good people do nice things. Not enough of that going around.

In the end they are just cards.

Some people miss that.

Good going !

I'm so glad it arrived safely and that you like it, Dan! After seeing your Vandy posts for Casali, Yaz, Kemp, etc., I know that yours is the right home for the card.
