Road To Victory 1/1


The NHL playoffs will start this Wednesday.  The Washington Capitals will begin their defense of their 2018-19 Stanley Cup Championship.  This is a good time to unveil my latest custom in the tradition of the Machado tablecloth.


2019-20 Absolute Irrelevance Road To Victory 1/1 Parade Used Bus Tire.

I asked myself what could be the most peripheral and ridiculous item they could put a swatch of in a relic card relating to the Caps Cup victory.  It was easy to find a tire swatch image since a good portion of racing relics are of race-used tires.  The rest was just cobbling together images into a cohesive design.

But the parody isn't complete without the presentation.  Machado relics were multi-level exclusivity with matching prices that jumped at each level.  Click on the image for a more readable picture.
