Found a new card shop in SCV (new to me anyway)

I found a card shoppe in my town (Santa Clarita) that I had never known about before. I love that first time you walk into a card shoppe, what are you gonna find? In my case? I shoppe that actually sells hockey! Treats it as the 4-sports and not just the 3 sports. Score.

I also picked this up:

My Favorite looking cards

I was going through some old cards and came across these and put them aside cause I just thought they looked so great, I would like to just look at them from time to time. I am not a Beaupre fan nor a big Guerin supporter, but these cards just spoke to me, the photgrapher deserves a lot of credit but the effects on these cards just enhanced a great looking picture. I think it is Beaupre's mask and the Cup that make these really stand out

Not hockey but DAMN!

This isn;t about a hockey card, but this card is awesome!  5 colors!  It is off the logo for a senior bowl jersey.  Beauty eh?
