I have the opportunity to buy a piece I've been looking for over 3 years so I have to move some stuff and quick. Sorry I don't have great pics of everything, but I can get you specific pics upon request. All prices include shipping and I will only take a check/MO. Better deals on multiple items. I'm open to reasonable offers...
Signed 1963 Topps Sandy Koufax PSA/DNA. Great blue ballpoint sig, very bold. This is my favorite Koufax card and the sig looks killer on it. $215
Jackie Robinson signed GPC from 1957. This is one I'd really like to keep but I may need to move it to make this purchase. PSA/DNA full letter. Simply a gorgeous signature. $825
1975 Topps '61 MVP card signed by Roger Maris. Auto is in blue sharpie and is gorgeous. Most Maris cards I see are in harder to read ballpoint but this one just POPS. $350
Mickey Mantle signed ball. Perfect signature. Costa Rica Official League ball, great condition. $195
Sandy Koufax signed OMLB with an outstanding signature. $185
Last is one of the gems of my Harmon Killebrew collection and I am very, very hesitant to sell it. This is a hand painted Topps Flexichrome of a never produced card of Harmon Killebrew & Rocky Colavito, home run leaders of 1959 made for the 1960 Topps set. For the full story, read Bob Lemke's blog, as that is who I got it from: [url]http://boblemke.blogspot.com/2011/07/trade-killed-topps-feature-card.html[/url]
The piece looks incredible, with very bold colors and depth, moreso than the scan shows. The middle photo where I used a flash shows some of the depth and pop of the piece. It comes with the cardboard backing as shown, but it is no longer glued to the back. I guess Topps glue doesn't hold for 50+ years. There is no damage or issues and it is larger than a card, closer to the size of an index card.
This is (obviously) a one-of-a-kind piece and since Killebrew's death, would likely bring a nice sum at auction if you chose to resell it. However, I'd hope this would find a home with a collector who would appreciate its beauty and rarity. I will include the custom card that Bob made from this image as well. $685

2.5 is pretty much my speed.
