This was my first trade with Jason over at Hobbs' Knights. He's an Orioles collector. Jason also has many set building endeavours going on. He sent me a great package of cards the other day. It was loaded with cards that I didn't own. He sent me some nice 2011 Topps Heritage as well as this golden Ryan Braun Topps Update card #ed/2005.
He also included this great card of a 1998 Rauuuuuul Mondesi. Mondesi was one of my top doggs growing up. I, like most Dodger fans of the 90s, thought that Rauuuul was going to be a stud for a long period of time. He had a handful of really good seasons in the bigs but didn't meet his lofty expectations. The 2011 Topps Heritage Kurt Suzuki was a card that was on my most wanted list. Consider that card scratched of the list.
The main prize of this lot was a 1998 Gallery of Heroes Hideo Nomo. The card is larger than the standard card. It is made to look like a stain glass window. Very awesome card! Thanks for sending me this, Jason. We will have to trade again.

Yeah, man... Mondesi is tops. Also, the Nomo acetate is sweet.
