Go ahead and put your Hancock there...

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Visit the official site here.

Breast Cancer will be detected in one of eight women in the US each year.
It is the second leading cause of cancer death among women each year.
On average every 2 minutes a woman will be diagnosed with breast cancer and every 13 minutes one person will die from breast cancer.
There are currently 33 million breast cancer survivors in the USA.

It's important to support the research for cancer.  Breast Cancer is often associated with the color pink so I will be showing off some pink Cutch cards.

In addition, you can expect to see some boobs with each post.  Who doesn't love boobs?

So let's start with what we're hoping to save!

Ketchupman36 of the blog Rekindling The Cardboard Flame recommended Julia Louis Dreyfuss, who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer.  The image above shows her 2014 Rolling Stone cover.  The actress took to Twitter to announce her battle and has received a lot of support online for her health in recent days.  She will forever be Elaine from the TV series Seinfeld to me and I wish her a quick recovery.

Now to the cardboard, this 2008 Bowman Sign of the Times Printing Plate is technically Magenta, but it has enough pink shades that I'm going to bend the rules on this one.

I purchased the card a little over a year ago and was pretty stoked about it because you don't see many licensed prerookie autographs of Cutch pop up.  There's hundreds of the Just Minors autographs, but the design is terrible and they're not MLB licensed.  It's one of two magenta printing plates I have.  Expect the other to be shown off at some time during this month.

Keep the suggestions coming for who else can be a featured actress on this segment.  (Gavin: I have a Christina Hendricks post ready to go this week)

  1. For me I remember Julia from her SNL days during the 1980s lost years.

  2. Olivia Newton-John, my favorite singer of all time, is a breast cancer survivor, and she recently announced that, after 25 years , the disease has come back.
