1982 topps traded porcelain Ripken auto

Schultz24

Hi all,
I saw this card recently in a local auction, but couldn't find much info or a value for it. It is the porcelain Ripken 1982 Topps traded 98t card. It says it was manufactured by R&N China and is numbered to 999. It also is signed with what looks like a legit auto. I have seen the ones numbered much higher with no auto, but cant find an example of this one. Sorry I dont have a pic right now. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Do not know about value but here is some info. The Ripken auto can be found in the CL in the first link

This is the only one I have

these signed cards I believe were originally marketed as a three card set with the other two being a Frank Thomas signed Leaf rookie as well as a Griffey signed UD rookie...From what I could find there was an edition of 999 sets (so they are plentiful)...



estimated value of the Ripken IMO would be $75-$100



good pick up!

I read on the one past Ebay sale I could find ($475 for the set of 3), that they only signed 250 of the 999 numbered copies. It was a pic of the affadavit signed by each player I think. Maybe not as plentiful as we thought???

while Ripken is no doubt a desirable autograph, not a whole lot of demand for signed porcelain cards (relatively speaking).....
