the warren spahn is really nice- this is going to be my new set to keep me entertained

Try this query:

1952 topps (singed, auto, autographed, autograph) -rp -reprint -2001 -2002 -2006 -2007 -favorites -archives

it will cut down on a lot of crap.

BunchOBull

Following slanty's lead:

LINK

I just added a filter for the year "1983" and the word "edition."

rube26105

ill write that down-thanx -there is way too much clutter the other way- i dont know why somebody would auto a reprint anyways, id rather have the real thing than a 1983 or newer archives card

theres a nice red schoendinst on there, but i wrote to him and wrote 'free baloney sandwich enclosed" people always put "donation enclosed" on theirs and they get rtsed!! maybe red is warped like me, if hell just open the letter

BunchOBull

Randy, try that link again, fixed it a little bit more...if you add it to your favorites, you'll see a lot of the stuff that pops up.

Randy, please share how you got Mr. Feller to sign. He's a notoriously tough autograph to obtain.



/sarcasm

Nice autos, Randy!

rube26105

i bought it i was thinking of don drysdale, hes the one thats dead, i remember the brady bunch episode for some reason
this is my new effort to spend all my $ so none of my relatives get it

Well lookie lookie Master Collector from the east coast.

joestalin

those cards are ugly, why would anyone want to collect that garbage?

Kevin

Goot

That Spahn............

nam812

This project will be a piece of cake for Randy, he sees dead people all the time. Sometimes he's even the very last person they see before they become dead people.

Keep up the good work Randy.

TheHun

Rube ... nice Spahn, but that Preacher Roe is the t*ts.

I've been trying to get a nice Preacher auto for a while.

... and not a penny left for the relatives ... love it!

I dont think there is any chance you will get Red even if you wrote "million dollar money order enclosed on it". I have met him a few times when I worked for the Cubs and it was only the 2 of us around and he is just a standofish turd. Maybe he just didnt like Cub employees or maybe he had a few off days when I met him but getting a auto out of him was just not going to happen. Good luck, You seem to have luck with standofish turds....or you just scare the heck out of them! LOL

rube26105

i found this one today in a album, gordon lightfoot wrote a song for him ed fitzgerald
i have some more somewhere from along time ago, where is a good question though almost 20 years of writing to all kinds of people, ya get a little bit of stuff

rube26105

the 52 autos left on ebay are talking to me now,buy me, buy me

BunchOBull

lol in my collection, finding a '91 Upper Deck Thomas card in a stack somewhere is a surpirse...I don't think you'd be surprised unless you found a PSA 10 T206 Wagner under some ammo in the Rube-cave.

rube26105

i did find those baseball 30's diamond kings and goudey 8's under my ak boxes last year didnt i
i lose stuff easy too much stuff out here

Congrats on starting a great autographed set! As I'm sure you've found out, there are a few collectors out there working on sets of them, so there is a bit of a demand and competition for them. Whenever I list 52 autographed cards, they usually do well.

Best of luck on the set!

originalisbest

Hmmm.... an auto'd '52 Topps Mantle.

rube26105

yer right metro,terwilliger is still alive, i was thinking of a guy that cant write anymore because of altz,looked at alot of em last night and cant remember now, oh well,its only $

<Are you going for the deceased as well>
yeah-that where the fun begins,the thrill of the hunt to find guys that signed their cards that have been dead forever now

Stone193

Wow Randy - good luck

You've got a good start! That's a tough set - keep you busy? Probably into the next decade!

But, the nice thing is things like this is what's keep'n us old guys alive!

So, go get'm!!!!

Thanx for sharing

Rube you will live to be 100 if you don't step on a land mine that you forgot about in the backyard.

rube26105

Rube, here's a great sig line for you .... I heard some old guy say this a few days ago ....

"I got up this morning and every bone in my body was stiff but one!"
