Friday The 13th: Thrills, DieCuts, and Chasing

We all know the story of Friday the 13th and how Jason Voorhees would slash and cut up his victims. I am in no way going to promote that.

That proceeded to another day of a lack of updates

And another
And another

Two days later, the updates were active and my card was out for delivery.

I finally have it in my possession.
Did you read the back of the card? Did you think Marco Scutaro's name would be mentioned on a Chasing History card?

Neither did I
