Traveling Box Update


I am very happy at the positive response that has been given in regards to a hockey traveling box. So far we have the following people interested:

1. Dave H 
2. Chemgod - Badwax
3. Sal B - Puck Junk
4. Michael - C4K
5. DFG - TheRealDFG
6. Bamlinden - My Hockey Card Obsession
I wasn't entirely sure if others who commented were committed to joining, so I didn't add their names yet, but if anyone else wants to get in please let me know and then we can get the ball rolling on this fun expedition. As far as rules and structure goes, I really liked what Chemgod did for rules in his Baseball/Football one, so I am thinking of mirroring him again on that. If you can think of additional rules or changes, I am all for them as well. Here is what was done with the baseball/football box. In terms of time line, I think it would be fun to get this going soon so I will make the sign-up cutoff Friday October 19th. Thanks for all those that have signed up so far, and here is hoping we can land a few more!

Hockey Traveling Box

Graciously borrowed image from Badwax.net

Chemgod over at Badwax has been running what I think is a very cool idea, a traveling box. The rules were pretty simple for baseball and I would like to propose the same rules (verbatim) what was done for baseball. I would be up for changing them if we can think of ways to improve it, but I think we need to start somewhere so here it is:

  • Donate 2 or 3 star game used, rookie card, short print, or autographed cards. 
  • Each card should be assigned a book value. 
  • For every card you want out of the box you must replace with a card of your own of equal value. 
  • You can take as many as you want, as long as you replace what you take.I would start a facebook group for this so that when you get the box and decide what you want to take you can report it on facebook.

If you have any interest please send me an email to forestrydave at hotmail dot com. Mike and I are already interested and if we can get 8-10 guys it certainly will be lots of fun and more the merrier!
