Very nice!!!

I love the original cards with autos. Not really any cards but I like when the 48, 57 and 61's are autographed, very cool.

I had this card done at the National in Chicago a couple of weeks ago. Thank you Reese for an exceptional autograph of the great Nat Holman.

Reese3333 · August 20, 2008 3:18AM

No problem Art! I'm glad it found a good home

ptper · October 11, 2008 7:49AM

Gentlemen:

Over the years I have amassed a great many basketball autographs, both Hall of Famers (over 1000) and regular players (over 3000). I have mostly trading cards and 3x5 cards, but some other types as well--nothing graded or PSA or Spence LOAs. I would like trade for players that I do not have.

If you would like to trade please email or PM me and I will send you my Excel list. I'm looking for pro players of all eras in return.

Thanks, Walt

Hi guys,

I have been collecting HOF autos for some time. And a few years ago, I had this idea to create my own cut auto and has been featured in Beckett.

My most prized items include: Pete Maravich, John Roosma, Ed Krause, Jim Pollard, etc.

So I have been thinking about putting my collection up for sale. How much do you guys think I can fetch for them in open auction?

Austin

austinchau · October 20, 2008 4:50AM

Just pick up these two rare autos -

Ed Wachter

John "Honey" Russell

I can't wait to get them

What have you guys pick up lately?

austinchau · October 20, 2008 4:22PM

Goodlieu,

I saw your HOFer autos set in the registry. Very nice!

Would you be open to selling those bookmark you got there? Please email me if you are austinchau@yahoo.com, thanks!

Austin

Reese3333 · October 21, 2008 11:22AM

Hi Austin!

You've got some great autos there! Did you make the cuts yourself?

Reese

austinchau · October 21, 2008 12:05PM

Hi Reese,

Thanks! Yea I did, in fact Beckett interviewed me a few years ago when they found out about it and it was one of the issue from 2006.

Austin

Reese3333 · October 21, 2008 12:15PM

You know what they did look familiar to me. I bet I have that issue somewhere!

austinchau · October 21, 2008 1:05PM

Reese, are you still working on the basketball HOF auto set?

Austin

Reese3333 · October 21, 2008 10:59PM

I've taken a break from it now. One of these days I will aggressively start looking for the guys I am missing.

Reese3333 · October 27, 2008 7:12AM

Austin,

PM sent.

Great Job With HOF Cut Signatures AAA+++.You Should Start Your Own Card Set For These Great Cards. Will PSA Allow Your Card Set To Be Added To The PSA Set Registry As PSA HOF Players?

Reese3333 · October 28, 2008 3:40AM

Unfortunately, you can't add the custom cut cards to any set. It has something to do with you can only add liscensed cards to the PSA set registry. You can go to the PSA/DNA showcase and add them there if you want to show them off. It would be a cool way to show off your collection.

austinchau · October 28, 2008 8:42AM

Thanks ZBob,

Yea like Reese said, they don't accept custom cut card. That's okay, I collect for my own enjoyment, thinking about starting my own website to feature them.

But zbob, you got the ultimate collection I always look at your hof autograph set. Do you want to trade? I have some duplicate as well. Maybe we can do something like that? I haven't traded for some years it would be fun

Upper Deck Makes Custom Cards.We Could Start New Set Of HOF Basketball Regular Cards Then Add Cut Cards Later.I Started 68 Bookmarks Regular Set So That Later The Auto's Were Good To Add To PSA Registry.

austinchau · October 28, 2008 3:23PM

Wow this is a super rare Stokes cut! Do you mind telling me how much you paid for this?

I have an extra of "Ed Wachter" and I have some others but I think you have all the others one I have double for. Interested in the Ed Wachter? PM me if you are

Love your scans, they are so nice! I need to do that for my collection too!

Austin

austinchau · October 29, 2008 7:32AM

just picked this up

Reese3333 · October 29, 2008 7:40AM

Very nice!

austinchau · October 30, 2008 6:17PM

Hey zbob,

How did you get the Bill Russell rookie auto? did you do TTM?

Austin

GOODLIEU · November 2, 2008 1:39AM

I dont think Russell signs anything by TTM. Cards such as that are usually signed by him at shows only. I included a scan of some "Tough Signers" I did get by TTM a few years back and had authenticated for my registry.

I was sending out quite a bit of Cards,Magazines tickets etc a number of years ago. I am a retired NYPD Lieutenant (Hence GoodLieu as in Good Cop/Bad Cop LOL) These were a couple of the Magazines I received back. They are hanging in my Den/Computer room.

mickeymantle24 · November 2, 2008 8:29AM

amazing stuff everybody!

ZBob · November 3, 2008 9:27AM

I Have 61 FDC Watchter Slabbed.I Think I Paid At Least $200 For Stokes Cut Slabbed.I Would Love To Have His Rookie Card Auto Slabbed.Along With That Card I Would Also Like To Have A 1957 Yardley Rookie Auto Slabbed Just Like The One GOODLIEU Has. Great Card

Hey Joe Do You Have Any PSA Registry Sets?

No, sorry zbob, I just sold my top fifty graded.. I have an almost complete PSA 9 or better 1977 basketball. I will waite until I finish the Gold set to register it in the registry.. Just cant waite, but it might take a bit longer as my bankroll is not even close to those major collectors that are collecting this set as well.. Will you like me to purchase the Cousy or your just looking to trade? I do have a couple of players for the regular set if your going for it, just let me know what you want to do..

Take care,
