My Latest Signed Piece Of Memorabilia
While it's not exactly Pens related memorabilia I figured this is too sick not to share. Both the piece and the story of how I actually managed to get it.
About 2 weeks ago on December 7th Frameworth had their 2nd annual "Doorcrashers Sale" where everything online was 40% off and there were also a few designated "Doorcrasher" items like signed jerseys and signed and framed stuff that were available at over half off. The catch was though that there were only 10 of each special "Doorcrasher" item available in the store in Toronto and only 4 of each item available online. The online orders started at 11AM and basically it was first come first serve (as they only had 4 of each special Doorcrasher item available for online customers) and you had to fill out an order form and more or less submit your order right at 11AM on the minute.
Well naturally I placed an order at 11AM on the minute (after sitting at my PC all ready to email them my order but thinking I'd not get what I wanted as I'd be beaten by a fraction of a second even though I placed my order online right as the clock struck 11AM) and look and behold...Frameworth called me an hour later to tell me I got this which is what I wanted. Even better is the fact that it was the last one.
Voila....
It's a dual signed Sidney Crosby/Paul Henderson "Greatest Goals In The History Of Canadian Hockey" piece which contains two signed 8x10 photos. One is a photo of Paul Henderson (handsigned by him) showing after he scored the famous '72 Summit Series goal, and the other handsigned picture is of Crosby right after he scored the "Golden Goal" at the 2010 Olympics.
That piece is regular $1000 but they had it online that one day only for the special price of $250.00. Needless to say I am beyond ****ing stoked to have actually gotten one
and especially the last one.
Especially for that price and considering that up until now I didn't have any signed Sid stuff in my collection.
Yay for holidays sales.
