Collector of the Week – Xspyrit

Today SenShot will be debuting it’s newest feature, the Collector of the Week.

If you’d like to be a part of this new feature, feel free to contact me at senshot.kevin@gmail.com.

Our first collector goes by Xspyrit on sportscardforum.com a card trading forum, as well as hfboards.com a hockey forum. He was originally a Quebec Nordiques fan, but became a fan of Daniel Alfredsson and the Sens in the 1997-98 season. He recently jumped back into the card collecting hobby just two years ago. However, in that short time he has amassed quite the collection. He tends to focus his collection on the younger prospects, including Peter Regin, Erik Karlsson, Jared Cowen, and Robin Lehner. His favorite cards he owns are his large amount of 1/1s. For those who don’t collect hockey cards, 1/1s are exactly what they sound like, one of a kind cards that are very hard to track what. Below are images of some of his favorite cards from his collection.

These cards feature Karlsson’s auto as well as pieces from the crest of jerseys worn by him:

The card below actually contains a piece of Karlsson’s draft board during the draft in Ottawa:

Spezza/Alfredsson card that contains worn jersey crest pieces from both, and a Spezza rookie card with an autograph and piece of a worn jersey by him:

These rookie cards below are all 1/1s, and thus are the only ones that exist in the world!:

The cards below actually contain printing plates that were used in the production of the cards. Xspyrit is proud to say that he owns 23 Regin printing plates!:

Lehner autographed rookie card, and a triple prospect (including Cowen):

These two cards are probably two of his rarest. They are both 1/1s from their sets and each contain the NHL crest from jerseys worn by Cowen!:

Hope you enjoyed seeing just a small part of Xspyrit’s collection! Remember, if you have anything that you want to show off, feel free to contact me.
