Second Lankford of 2024

The new listings for Ray Lankford cards on EBAY have been steady so far this year.  Most days, there are 10-15 new auctions.  Most are cards that I already have, but some new ones have come up.  One 2023 Donruss card was listed a week or so ago that started a little higher than I wanted to spend.  It sat on my watch list for a few days before the seller sent me a lower offer.  I countered with an even lower offer that he accepted very quickly.  It arrived in my mailbox earlier this week.


This is the voltage parallel numbered 12 of 25.  A Christmas card that also happens to be his jersey number on the card.  Lankford wore #12 his final season in St. Louis after wearing #16 the previous years.  I guess when he returned in 2004, he could not convince Reggie Sanders to switch numbers.  

This is my 18th different version of his 2023 Donruss card, and most likely my last.  The final 6 cards of this rainbow include 5 1/1 cards and another numbered to 5.  I do not believe any of them have shown up online yet.
