Chain letter

A cautionary tale about what can happen if you start trading cards with unsavory characters you’ve met on the internet…

I received a stack of cards in mail today from @TimJenkins1962. He’s got some ‘splainin’ to do. pic.twitter.com/6ROoFVb4me

This is going to turn into one of those games where if you've received that card you have to find someone else to send it to asap.

Sorry, I moved and left no forwarding address.

I offered it to a friend for his Jeffrey Dahmer rookie but he hung up on me.

Jeffrey Dahmer relics are where it's at obviously.

Serves me right for making the suggestion. Although it is appropriate to send him to Princeton. I’ll have to find someone in Texas to mail this to next.

Oh, and Mark also sent me a bunch of 1979 Topps Giants cards. I didn’t photograph those since I suspect they were mainly an excuse to send me this ghastly piece of cardboard. But old Giants cards are always welcome!
