Oh Baby! Show Me Your Racks !

racks are such a different breed that I thought that I would start a separate thread geared towards these beauties.

Any racks are welcome, any year, any company, star power or not. All they need to be is racks. Only 1 post per day to keep it going. Only 1 picture if possible. I wanna create my own version of muggymania

So, gents--Show me your racks.

Up 1st........

I know that there are many Ricky fans out there.....

    This probably is not very interesting to most but the rack has the rare white letter (PADRES) Keith Comstock on front.
    The corrected card has Padres in blue.

    I wouldn't even know this was a special rack if it weren't for the boards.

    I'm considering selling it.

    Eric, you need to take a rack pack out of those boxes. image

    Manny, great idea for a thread. I'll post once I decide who my leadoff hitter will be.

    BTW, how long are you looking to keep this thread going as I think I have enough racks for at least a couple of years without repeating any?

    Just curious, but where can an ordinary Joe like me buy good, clean, unsearched racks outside of BBCE?

    Also, is this stuff you guys have picked up recently, or is it stuff you bought when it came out and you've been sitting on it all these years?

    What stuff I have, was purchased in the early 90s.

    Thanks Ryan. The auto is on the rack and noted on the GAI flip. Supposedly, it was purchased from Mark Murphy and signed by Johnny Bench at the same show. I bought it from the guy who got it from Mark Murphy.

    BTW, what didn't you get Molitor to sign??? image

    This is the only rack I got him to sign, he was kind enough to also sign 3 cellos for me at Twins Fest.
    Here's one of him signing a cello with the rack already signed in the foreground:
