Thanks bob! I didn't know you can do like a trade-in of your PSA/DNA card for normal PSA for$14. I will think about that but I never really care about grade just care about the eye appeal and the beautiful autograph

Dennis Rodman is not at this time in the HOF and to the best of my knowlege has not even been considered.
Again his stats at least should be considered, he is going to be Basketball's version of Jim Rice if he ever even gets a nod on the ballot.
RODMAN HIGHLIGHTS
5x NBA Champion (1989, 1990, 1996, 1997, 1998) 2x All-Star (1990, 1992) 2x NBA Defensive Player of the Year (1990, 1991) 2x All-NBA Third Team Selection (1992, 1995) 7x NBA All-Defensive First Team Selection 7x NBA Rebounding Champion (1992–1998)
There are some other guys that I feel like they just won't ever get elected even tho they totally derserve to: - Artis Gilmore - George McGinnis - Bevo Francis (College great) - Mark Aguirre - Paul Westphal

I just threw his name out their along with Oscar Schmidt because like Petrovic he was a Basketball stud in Europe years before he played in the NBA. He was defintely on the downside of his career but still was a remarkable talent. Have this card signed by him that I have to send in to have authenticated and slabbed when I get a chance.

Nice cards guys! I know this is not an autograph but here is Sabonis' European Rookie card from 1985. (I dont get the chance to show off my basketball much) It is the only one I have ever seen so I had to snag it.!

I'm late adding comments on this thread and have a number of the more current HOF'ers autos. I was wondering why a lot of the autos can be picked up for low prices. For instance I recently picked up a Cliff Hagen, Robert Parish and Bailey HOwell all for less than $5 each. Is it because they are still alive or is there just not that much demand? thanks al.

I am assuming you got the ones from the Donruss set? all those autos are going cheap, plus they are sticker autos, also some people mention they are not nba licensed cards. You can also get the WANZER,Schayes,Risen and the Lovellette for around those prices. Even the HAynes and Mchale are going for great prices considering these are their first autos.

Yup they are a great deal , a sticker auto, is that the player signed a sticker, then the company places the sticker on the card. On-card, what the standard was before, then the companies started using stickers. Sets like Chronology and Press Pass Legends have on-card

Would it be beneficial to have the cards slabbed in case the sticker decides it wants to be unstuck??? So what I've heard is that these are deals even though they are stickers....I know one thing about the one's recieved so far, you can actually read the signature, which you can' t say about a lot of the current players who sign.

I don't really know when the sticker auto's started? maybe 6 years ago? As far as I know they have not become unstuck. I should have added that for some people, they also prefer the on-card autos, because they know that the players touched the cards. In another forum people were wondering why these donruss autos are going cheap, since for all these players have the most affordable autos in this set so far, so they wrote the reasons I mentioned before. For me, I am thinking since all these autos have parallel's(bunch of versions) some with a total of around 1000 autos, maybe that is what is causing them to be so affordable?
Yup some of those guys are over 80 years old!!! and they still have a nice auto.

2008 Donruss Americana Sports Legends As They Are Called And Listed In Multi-Sport Cards In Population Report.I Had First Grades Pop Fri. IMO They Are The Best Buy.The Card Quality Is Great.
I am not a big fan of the sticker auto's but what are you gonna do when players such as Marques Haynes have their first autograph appear with them. Actually and believe me I hate to say it the CUT cards are better in my opinion and they are by far the ugliest cards I have ever seen coming from the Card Companies but I think in the future long deceased HOFers such as Stokes/Johnston/Pollard among others will only be available as cut cards whether we like it or not.

Yea I was wondering when they gonna do some "real" cut autos with basketball on a massive scale like you mentioned Stokes, Johnston, Pollard, Wachter, Lapchick, etc. That would be really cool, I think the basketball history is vastly under the radar compare to baseball and football and this could be spark for ppl to get interested.

It has: Dr. J, Harold Katz, Moses Malone, Matt Guokas, Bobby Jones, Maurice Cheeks and Pat Williams. Most of the other guys are pretty tough. Iavaroni is next.

AWESOME thread, can't believe I didn't notice it before. All of you have such nice cards, I enjoy all of the scans and comments about basketball history. I don't know if this has been discussed yet, but Drazen Petrovic is a tough modern hall of fame autograph - I have acquired a few of his over the years and nearly have a career run. Does anyone have any Petrovic autographs?
I also have four more on the way from December's psa/dna special. Always curious to see what people have of hall of famers and especially toughies.
Welcome Joe, It seems you have the market covered when it comes to Petrovic auto's lol. He is defintely one of the tougher HOF auto's for a person who is trying to get the set together from scratch. ZBob and I have sets in the PSA Registry with scans if you get a chance check them out.

<< <i>Would it be beneficial to have the cards slabbed in case the sticker decides it wants to be unstuck??? So what I've heard is that these are deals even though they are stickers....I know one thing about the one's recieved so far, you can actually read the signature, which you can' t say about a lot of the current players who sign. >>
I don't really know when the sticker auto's started? maybe 6 years ago? As far as I know they have not become unstuck.
I should have added that for some people, they also prefer the on-card autos, because they know that the players touched the cards.
In another forum people were wondering why these donruss autos are going cheap, since for all these players have the most affordable autos in this set so far, so they wrote the reasons I mentioned before.
For me, I am thinking since all these autos have parallel's(bunch of versions) some with a total of around 1000 autos, maybe that is what is causing them to be so affordable?
Yup some of those guys are over 80 years old!!! and they still have a nice auto.

<< <i>I am not a big fan of the sticker auto's but what are you gonna do when players such as Marques Haynes have their first autograph appear with them. Actually and believe me I hate to say it the CUT cards are better in my opinion and they are by far the ugliest cards I have ever seen coming from the Card Companies but I think in the future long deceased HOFers such as Stokes/Johnston/Pollard among others will only be available as cut cards whether we like it or not. >>
Yea I was wondering when they gonna do some "real" cut autos with basketball on a massive scale like you mentioned Stokes, Johnston, Pollard, Wachter, Lapchick, etc. That would be really cool, I think the basketball history is vastly under the radar compare to baseball and football and this could be spark for ppl to get interested.
<< <i>IMO There Is Something Wrong With PSA Graders & Customer Service.(Not The Same Great People).PSA Registry Crew Is Great As Always.Have To Email Cards To Be In My Set And Then They Don't Have Rating.Run Around On Current Submissions.Hope They Get It Fixed, Untill Then I Will Not Send Any More Cards To PSA. >>

<< <i>Thought I'd show my 20+ year project. Yeah, slowly working on this for quite a while. Just got the owner Harold Katz. The 'upside down' Harold Katz signature is on the plastic covering, not the photo. He signed it quickly there first, then signed the photo.
