question regarding emmit smith card

coinandcurrency242

I have a 24k or something emmit smith that was a limited edition and only 20,000 were ever made I believe. I have no idea of the value or the importance of it!

Also you spelled Emmitt, Emmit. I have killed people for less.

I always wondered how the word "limited" and a number like 20,000 could be used in the same sentence

I would hope I never spell Emmet wrong.

Emmitt and his wife were recently divorced.

Seriously,

LMM,

is the Sports Illustrated for kids card from 92 or 93 hard to find? How do they grade perforated cards?
I just found one digging into my old stuff looking for a Tiger Woods. No Woods, but I kinda' like the Emmitt.

The 1991 version is his best Si card imo. Can you scan the one you have? I would like to see it.

I can vouch for this - I mispelled Emmitt's name and Matt broke both my arms and I considered myself lucky it wasn't worse.

This one was of the issues that led to the divorce. His wife always laughed each week when that "crazy lawn mower guy" sent another letter asking for Emmitt's autograph TTM. After 74 consecuative weeks, Emmitt snapped. The following is a transcript from the divorce trial:

"He like stomps the floor and yells, 'Meehhhh,' and starts throwing stuff around. He bashes his head in the wall, too."

Needless to say, the judge granted the divorce.



Everything worked out in the end though.
When someone finally told Emmitt what TTM meant, he realized that the Lawn Mower Man wasn't really crazy after all and actually admired him, maybe even had a man-crush. He contacted the Lawn Mower Man and and asked if he'd like to meet him for a beer. Emmitt is shown here signing the Lawn Mower Man's autograph book. The Lawn Mower Man offered his apologies for his role in Emmitt's divorce. Emmitt shrugged it off and said "It's her problem L-Man. She had no right laughing at me each week when I thought you wanted my autograph on your Teeny Tiny Mower."

The FIRST rule about Emmit is YOU DONT TALK ABOUT EMMIT
The SECOND rule about Emmit is ....

Thanks Blackborder. I have quite a 6-pack!

Scanned for Matt.

lawnmowerman

Sweet card! That is the 1991 si for kids version.

Thanks for the scan

Edit: To answer your question about grading it, what they look for is paper loss along the perforation. If it's not pulled cleanly you will lose some paper along the surface / edge resulting in an automatic 8.
