New Custom from Doran - The Mick

Really looking forward to this Custom. Still in a pre-print stage, but this 7 x 10 card is going to be awesome! Hoping to get it, along with a few others, within the week.

For years I was looking for this inscription, never really expecting to find it. Found the paperback book "THE MICK" on ebay with this inscription and signature on the inside front page earlier this year. This will be my #1 autographed card.

    Doug, that is awesome!!! image

    I remember when you posted that book and how cool that the person that got it signed was named Doug too.

    Are you going to get it slabbed? It would look very sharp!!!

    Nice piece Doug, it's kinda like the President Clinton autograph I have personalized to "Mike", but it wasn't me that got it. Still I like it much more than other Clinton graphs I have.

    Very cool card. Doran is an artist.

    (The Mick is perhaps my favorite sports book.)

    This is a super-cool piece...but could you imagine how it'd feel if it got lost by usps on the way back?

    Not sure if yur bustin balls or not (not sure why you would be considering I never busted yours) but if you are my answer to you is: It's only a card and an auto. Compared to all the crap I have gone thru with my daughter and wife this means SH*T!

    Meant nothing negative with the post...such an amazing find it would be a shame to have it mishandled by the usps.
  • DboneesqDboneesq Posts: 18,220 ✭✭
    No problem ... I believe you that you meant nothing by it ... just a strange thing to say, considering there have been THOUSANDS of items worth a LOT more posted on these boards and never heard anyone make such a statement. Oh well.
