I was very fortunate to have gotten an in person autograph from Bob Gibson in February at my local golf course here in St thomas Virgin Islands. Contrary to his reputation, Bob was a fine gentlemen to talk to and after twisting his arm a bit i got a few autographs....I took one of these autos and sent to our friend Garret to perform his magic with autos and create one of his autos cards.

Today in the mail i received my auto card from Garret.....until you see one of these auto cards in person you have no idea of the quality and workmanship that goes into putting these cards together....................

The money i spent for this card is by and far the best money I have ever spent in the hobby............


......I will have to send a scan to someone to put it up here, since I am an idiot and have not figured out how to put up a scan.......

    Top notch. Yours also comes with a nice story on how the auto was obtained. Enjoy the card.

    I am just awestruck by your work Knuckles!

    Do you mind me asking, what kind of printer do you use? Is it inkjet or laser?

    Hey folks, I just had to post another one of Garret's creations, this one I sent him just for fun! Just to see what he could do!

    I had met the guy back in 1989, and I had Knuckles do a tribute card for me, (it's still in the works), so I had to share it.
