Hall of Famer Game-Used cards

At the risk of giving a coronary to any purists out there, I've got my list here of 125 HOFers who have game-used cards. AFAIK, the only post-WWII players without such a card are Monte Irvin and Satchel Paige. If anyone is aware of any I've missed, please post what set they are in and what the item is if you know (bat, jersey, glove, etc.). I'd also like to know if anyone is aware of pre-WWII non-HOF players with these cards. There are Joe Jackson and Buck Herzog, to name two.

I'd be curious to see if anyone has compiled such a list for the other sports as well.

    Right offhand, I'd add Frank Crosetti and Tommy Holmes to the pre-WWII non-HOFer GU list ('02 and '01 Legendary Cuts, respectively).

    I too am collecting these cards. I'm at 34 players so far (not counting those of whom I have autographs, but no GU), including Heilmann, Bucky Harris (from a NPN), and 3 of Foxx. Hardly any of mine have cost over $5.

    I could have sworn I either have or at least saw a Satchel Paige Game Used (Pants) card in the last 2 years. Maybe I just imagined it. I'll go through my boxes of game used this weekend to check.
    I collect Vintage Cards, Commemorative Sets, and way too many vintage and modern player collections in Baseball (180 players), Football (175 players), and Basketball (87 players). Also have a Dallas Cowboy team collection.
  • Helionaut- good work on the list. Is there a list available that tells us which players are on whcih products? That would be really helpful.
