You meet someone out in the back yard (being polite not to wake anyone else in the house)....

And purchase THESE at 4:30 AM!

Killebrew piece was purchased at a previous date but still felt it was nice to show.

    Gotta ask. What is the history on the Killebrew(s)? Seems kind of bizarre that Killebrew would sign his name that many times ...
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    Signed to figure out which pen he liked best! Came from his agent image


    Edited to add... They are typically signed for cuts, he had some already made up but was asking ridiculous prices.

    Killebrew was known as a very good signer who took pride in his autographs. There are stories that he would advise younger players to sign properly or not sign at all. This would seem to be a practice sheet of paper is my guess. It certainly ties in with what I have heard but obviously speculation as well. - Kevin

    OK great cards and all, but im wanting to hear more about the 4:30 AM secret meeting in the back yard. How did this go down? Drunk surfing Craigslist at 2AM and found the cards online? The seller drove to your house, you both sat in the backyard around the kids playset with looking at cards with a flashlight.

    This really could be an epic story / thread

    That Killebrew is absolutely fantastic. I cant believe you acquired something like that. Great piece of History.

    Lovin' the Mantle too but then again - who doesn't!
