Rainbows are pretty


Especially baseball card ones! Recently I completed my first ever chrome rainbow. Naturally I chose a current Phillies player Ryan Howard to go after. Hopefully his achilles injury will heal more over this offseason and he will return to his MVP form. The only problem I'm having with this rainbow is figuring out how to display it. I didn't include the base refractor or the base card. I have 10 cards as part of this player 'set'.

As many of you know I'm a huge fan of chrome (I broke back into sports card collecting by buying a case of 2011 chrome). Chrome this year has been real good to me and I've quite enjoyed collecting it. I've shown off the xfractor sheets which look great on the wall in my living room and now this.. but just wait there is one more monster to show that I will highlight over my next few posts. Enjoy the rainbow.. if this were a football blog I'd make a Marshawn Lynch joke.
