So you got a high-res scanner? Cool! A light box and a camera worth a fortune? Even better! How about high-end rarities that cost a fortune well kept in a safe? Awesome! Keep 'em locked in there. This is not that kind of a showcase thread. I do not want to see neatly arranged personal collections, and masterfully set up jaw dropping art projects. Unless that really is what you hide in there. For real. Just pull out your damn drawer, take a flick as is, and share it with us plebs. Or take multiple shots as you go trough them. And please do not forget to tell us all about what we find in there. (A kind reminder; do not dox yourself!)

What you will find in mine? All kinds of stuff. Cardboard I had yet to make place in my binder for, sitting here in penny sleeves and toploaders. Screwdowns and mags for PC items that will never make it into my binder, but I am too attached to trade. Unopened wax. A Topps Vault Certificate for a one of a kind real press proof card (not just another parallel). And silicone packs against humidity. I keep silicone packs everywhere I keep cards. I have no proof if they really do anything, but better safe than sorry.
The Young Lion Shaq on the left is my favorite Shaq card of all time, as it was my brother's favorite back in the day when he used to collect. He first noticed the big guy while he was still playing for Orlando, and his zodiac sign is Leo. One of only two Magic cards in my PC. The reason it is sitting on top of the pile, just above an Iverson SPx Holoview, is because I needed the magnetic holder I used to keep it in for another card receantly. The "Rookie" screwdown hides a Kobe Finest RC in case anyone wonders.
On top of the next pile is a 01/02 SPx Shaq base card. It is waiting for its way to make it into my main PC binder, but that is a difficult and complicated task to achieve. I am sure most of you recognize the card hiding underneath. A C.C. One-on-One subset card of Shaq and Hakeem. Someone with the eyes of a hawk might even see a 97/98 Finest Silver "Force" subtitle beneath. It is also a Shaq.
The third pile from the left is an unmistakable Silhouette card. The best year design wise IMHO. 19/20 is also looking sweet. Oh, and it is jersey numbered. I purchased it a year or two ago with the intent of giving it to a friend of mine's kid along with the unopened wax you see there next to it. The kid started to play competitive basketball and he looks up to Irving. But since they are living in another town, it is difficult to get to them, and I always forget to bring them with me whenever I do make the trip.
You can also make out the back of a sole Duncan Metal Universe RC card there. One of the few cards remaining of my abandoned set building project. I gave up on it because I refuse to pay $100 for a damn Jordan base.
So this was my drawer. I do have others which I would like to showcase if this thread catches on. I hope so, because I really would like to see what's hiding in yours. Uncensored and untamed. Just make sure to remove the reefah before you take the pic, if you are not living in one of those states.
