Trade Stack 5: Because Egypt's Been in the News Lately

Here is how this works:
Every so often (i.e. whenever I feel like it), I will add a card to a "Trade Stack".  Whenever the stack becomes appealing enough to someone, that person needs to comment on the post saying they'd like to claim the stack AND tell me which card they are sending off of my want list.  That's all you have to do - trade me ONE card (or more, of course) card from my want list for the entire stack of cards that I'm offering.  Each time, it will be first come, first serve...so act quickly (unless of course you are a gambler and hope to wait it out until there are 10+ cards in the stack that you want in exchange for a single 2004 UD Vintage card that I am looking for)!

The Trade Stack:
Last update:  1/30/11


There has been a lot of bad news about Egypt lately so the latest addition to the trade should be a harbinger of good news - peace is possible!  Today's card is from the 2009 Topps American Heritage set and focuses on The Camp David Accords.  The CDA's (as they are affectionately known by all who are too lazy to continue to type out the full name) were the result of a twelve day meeting betwen then Egyptian president Anwar al-Sadat and Isreali prime minister Menachem Begin in 1978.  Hopefully today's strife in Egypt can be solved peacefully though if a recent quote by an Egyptian doctor is any indication, I'm not so sure:

"If I had a visa to anywhere, I'd join them. But that's not going to happen," said Mohammed Khaled, a 28-year-old Egyptian doctor. "Right now, I'd settle for a gun, but I can't even find one of those."  (source)
Yikes.

Want the card(s) in the stack?  Act fast - tell me which card you will send me off my want list in the comments below!  If no one claims this card within a reasonable amount of time (a few hours up to a few days, depending) - I'll add another card to the stack and the process will start again!
