We’ve featured Jeffrey Griffith before on the Upper Deck Blog, but he remains one of the nicest collectors you will meet in the hobby and when he allowed me to come to his house to check out his incredible collection of Wayne Gretzky cards and memorabilia, I was immediately excited. I had heard about the collection and seen pictures, but to experience it in person was absolutely awesome. Jeff pulled out one after another of show-stopping inserts of Gretzky from various Upper Deck products over the years, it was unbelievable.

And luckily I brought cameras to capture the collection with, check this out with the understanding that this is just part of the collection, wow!
