A bargain box, picked up at the Basildon show Sunday Sept 26th for £15

36 packs of 8 cards.
2 complete sets of base cards (100 per set)
74 'spare' base cards
1 complete set of 'foil' cards (12 per set - odds 1:3)
3 autograph ards - A4 (Jon Rollason), A6 (Rhonda Parker) and A7 (Brian Blessed Big Grin) - odds 1:12
A nice package - I have a mini-master (not including autographs) an autograph card by the loudest actor of the 20th century (and probably also of the 21st century! Big Grin) and a spare set of base cards to trade/eBay.
Au Res.,
Paul

I'll say that was a bargain. I needed some card therapy due to an ongoing tense family situation so visited a well known UK site that has a sale on.

Bought 2 boxes of The Avengers Definitive Trading Card Collection Series One (to give it it's full title) for £19.99 each. I thought that was a good deal till I came to post my pulls and read the above.

Anyway, I was hoping to get one of the big three autos Patric MacNee, Honor Blackman, Linda Thorson plus a Bernard Cribbins as I have been a fan of his for longer than I care to remember.
Here's what I pulled.
Box #2733
A3 ELIZABETH SHEPHERD
A4 JON ROLLASON
A5 JULIE STEVENS

Box #2736
A3 ELIZABETH SHEPHERD ( will trade for a Bernard Cribbins)
A7 BRIAN BLESSED ( cool, saw him in Chitty in London)
A8 Ray Brooks

Managed 4 complete base sets and 2 complete chase sets.

Not the results I'd hoped for but a fine set, looking forward to sitting down to read the backs.
I had a Diverting couple of hours cracking & collating.
