I don't always collect autos, but when I do…I get a Mantle

I only have a few autos in my whole entire collection (so far). These are my favorites: the first two I've had for a while, the last one just came in the mail today.

    Very nice P-Dub. That is a great collection.

    I was thinking the same thing.

    Did you make these cards or are they from a set? They are great looking.

    Thank you everyone.

    The Ryan and Musial came from a former board member HeritageAddict, who I haven't seen here in a long time.
    The Mantle looks like his work, but I can't confirm. I just purchased it off eBay.

    Doran did AWESOME work! He did many cards for me. That Mantle looks REAL NICE and yes it does look like his work. That was the next card he was going to do for me when he suddenly disappeared.

    I know he unfortunately lost his house due to a fire. Luckily no-one was hurt. Seems like after the fire he just stopped communicating with everyone. Doran was a great guy ... hope he is OK.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Awesome pickup Paul. I agree the last one does look like Doran's work. He always did a great job with those. Congrats!!!

    Paul, Those are great auto's. I am almost positive that I remember Doran making that Mantle. I love the cohesiveness that all three of those cut card auto have. Well done!

    Never really have been a fan of Ryan's auto. The Musial and Mantle are very nice.
    I'm building a 1968 and a 1970 Topps set. I have lots of 1970s and 1960s to offer in trade.

    Matt ... Doran DEFINITELY made one that looked like that ... I'm not sure if it's the exact one though.

    Here is the one he made for me back in the day. Because of the size of the sig, the "card" is 10.5" x 7.5"

    I wish that HerritageAddick was still around. I have a nice Cal Ripken Jr. Auto that I would love to get made into a card similar to the ones above.

    Paul ... here is one that Doran made for me. Card is 3.5" x 5". However, PSA put it in one of those large slabs ... I'm sure it would have fit in a smaller slab an it would look a lot better. The slab it's sitting in is 6.5" x 10".

    Paul... I love those cut autos! He made about a half a dozen for me. This is by far my favorite
