Classic Lidstrom card. That card would always mysteriously..."change ownership"...between my brother and I when we were younger.

A story of redemption for today:
[2001-02 BAP Be A Player Memorabilia Draft Redemption #10 - Dan Blackburn /100]
I occasionally bust older boxes, particularly the Be A Player stuff from when In The Game had a license, and redemptions are always a risk when doing that. Unfortunately, I had opened this box several years after this offer had expired. But I don't like feeling shorted out of a card I should have, so I went and bought another copy when one showed up on the market, which took another couple years at the time. Former white whale.
Even though the card says /100, not all 100 were redeemed. The fact that it wasn't a generic, thin paper redemption made me want a redeemed copy even more, so that I could have both. Luckily it wasn't a 1/1 or something.
