One Card Post - Exclusive Jagr

What:  2014 Upper Deck Update #512 - Jaromir Jagr (Exclusives Parallel /100)
Where: COMC
How Much?:  $13.75

Why?:  Jaromir Jagr's tenure with the Florida Panthers represented one of my favorite stages of his career.  In addition to that, these Exclusives parallels from Upper Deck seem much harder to find than most cards with a print run of 100, so I happily snapped this one up. 

At $13 and change it's one of the more expensive pick-ups in my COMC history, but I fully expect this one to retain its value given that Jagr turned out to be one of the most successful players in the history of the game and is a guaranteed lock for the Hall of Fame!  In any event, it's certainly a highlight of my small Jagr collection.

  1. Awesome! I'm so glad I discovered the sport in time to see the tail end of his career. The UD Exclusives cards are favorites of mine as well. I just pulled my first a few months ago from the NHL, but I have about 25 from the NBA, or more. I forsee both numbers going up over the years!

  2. Jagr is the man. Still remember playing him, Lemieux, and Stevens on NHL 94. Good times.
