Thorsday: No Sleep Til...

It has been a very long time since I announced a Noah Syndergaard side PC.  You can see that August 2019 post here.

I have grabbed a few new cards here and there without showing them off, but this recent addition was a great value for a rare card.

I've talked about the rarity of The Brooklyn Collection and how the only way to initially get them is to be a member of the 582 Montgomery Topps Club.

This on card autograph numbered to only 75 copies cost me $19.  I would happily buy a blaster box to snag one of these.

ThorsDay

I was watching a rerun of Expedition Unknown on Discovery Channel and learned that Thursday is named after the Norse God of Lightning, Thor.

I have always enjoyed watching the baseball version of Thor pitch so I have been picking up a few autographs of his over time.  It's nothing really special, but I do like having a small bit of variety to my PC besides just Collecting Cutch with some Clemente, Bettis, and Morton sprinkled in.

I am starting the PC not because he has a cool nickname (although that helps).

It clearly isn't for any rooting interest of my home team either (although the Mets are much closer geographically than Pittsburgh)

It's partially because I think building a side PC of a guy on my mom's favorite team could be fun since I really don't see her much anymore and looking at a stack of Mets cards from time to time could bring back some of the good memories we had.

I only have one rookie of Thor.  It is a pack pulled Chrome Prism Refractor.

Are there any PCs you are building that people don't know about?
