A Bull, A Maple Leaf and some Birds

 Random.org chose the following as my random card of the day. 2011 Hoops #56 featuring Richard Hamilton of the Chicago Bulls. Kind of a meh design and card, but face-masked Rip is always at least a bit of a nice deal.

I currently own 5 Richard Hamilton cards and 134 Chicago Bulls cards.

My favourite new card I added to my catalogue yesterday is this 2024 Upper Deck All-Star Toronto AS-AM card of Auston Matthews of the Toronto Maple Leafs. I picked it up at a show on the weekend, had never seen this card or the design before, and it wasn't even pictured on TCDB. It is part of an 8 card promo set issued by Upper Deck in conjunction with the 2024 NHL All-Star game. I found a few others from the set in the same bargain box. Needless to say, I did not find the Connor Bedard card from the set in that box.

New additions to my all-time roster project catalogued yesterday were:

• Boston Bruins player #190 - Ivan Huml
• Colorado Avalanche player #108 - Ben Meyers
• Toronto Maple Leafs player #334 - John Klingberg
• Carolina Hurricanes player #203 - Dmitry Orlov
• New York Islanders player #162 - Masi Marjamaki
• Canada (hockey) player #147 - Grayden Siepmann
• Ontario Reign player #14 - Vincent LoVerde
• Springfield Thunderbirds player #11 - Mike McKenna
• Seattle Kraken player #21 - Tye Kartye
• Philadelphia Flyers player #158 - Matthew Konan

My All-time roster project now stands at 15,113 combinations.

My random postcard of the day is this card from New Zealand featuring 5 native birds. Any postcard featuring native wildlife will always be a winner for me. This card is unused and was bought at an antique mall vendor stall. I currently own 19 postcards from New Zealand.
