Taking A Dip In Lord Stanley's Mug With Ryan Getzlaf.

I'm still astonished on occasion by the great deals that can be had via eBay. I've been fortunate to come across and take down a lot of great deals on Ryan Getzlaf cards through 6+ months of 2012, and the below is yet another example of that on-going (and hopefully continuing) trend. For just $7.38 delivered, I was able to add the absolutely stunning card below to my Captain Getz Collection.

Numbered to a scant 14 (06/14, in my case), I present an '11-'12 ITG Ultimate Memorabilia Lord Stanley's Mug Auto/2-Color Patch of the Ducks' Captain. Though it appears the auto is cut off - denoting a sticker - it's all actually there, as part of the top of the latter portion of the signature is covered by the design of the autograph area. The patch has a nice, fat seam, and though it is unlicensed, it's still a card I'm extremely thrilled to add to my collection, especially when the price is factored in. I've had this card forever, as I won it way back in late March, but I just never got around to scanning it in and writing about it until now.
