    so far my best pull was a 2007 A&G Roy Rogers Cut signature 1/1.. and the best part is that it came from a $20 retail box from Target.

    i needed the cash so i sold it for $1200 and he flipped it for $2000

    Man, I've seen those racks selling on the 'bay from $4 to $6...never bitten though. That's awesome.

    Back in 1998 I bought a box of Ultra FB at Walmart and pulled a Randy Moss RC (the real one).

    Back in 1994 I bought one pack of 93-94 Stadium Club Basketball and pulled the Rockets Super Teams card, I was kinda unhappy because the Magic was my favorite team. The Rockets went on to win the NBA Finals so I redeemed the card for a complete set of 93-94 Stadium Club with a 'special' stamp on them.

    I can't think of anything more recent than that.

    I pulled that Rockets card from that set too! And I actually found that redeemed set recently at my parent's house.

    I'm so glad I hung on to it all these years and didn't sell it back when the Webber and Hardaway RCs were hot. That would have been really stupid.

    Being a Nolan Ryan fan I can honestly say that I wouldn't mind seeing it again. That card's awesome!

    Ok, you twisted my arm...I love this card too...a little bit of a back story...I was 14, almost 15, when I pulled this card and I pulled it in a pack that I traded what is now a no-name rookie card for. To top it off, it had a Frank Thomas insert in it as well.

    I pulled a 1992 score franchise Mickey Mantle autographed card #775 out of 2000. It was 1992 I was in the Air Force at the time stationed at Mountain home AFB. I bought a waxbox from Albertsons in which the cashier charged me .99 cents for the whole box instead of 9.99.wooooooooohooooooooo what a hit ! . thatsmy best hit ever , I still have the card to this day .

    About 8 weeks ago purchased 3 packs of 84 fb from ebay. I opened 2 packs and put the third in my pack collection. I almost craped myself. I figured buying them from ebay they were probably searched.image

    There is severe contrast between he and Ryan, but it's a tough auto to get in person, much less pull, so I'll take it.

    I love Pujols' Bowman's Best rookie. That one, along with his Donruss Elite, are my favorite rookies of his.

    I have not been ripping long enough to have a great pull but so far this has been it:

    Hopefully it will sell one day and then I will consider it a "great" pull

    Should've rephrased the initial post....

    I meant for the thread to be about pulls of regular issue cards, not inserts...

    I pulled a 1960 Mantle from a pack. Unfortunately, I did it in 1960 and I have no idea what happened to it.

    Not in the regular issue. eTopps issued a presidents set later that year which included a JFK (sorry the scans are so large):
