    @robert67 I've seen a Michael Jordan card on ebay before that was same shape & somewhat similar color design as that Bolt but i couldn't tell you if it was from a game or not. I'm pretty sure it was some kind of custom card.

    Thanks for the insight. I contacted the seller to ask where the card came from but no response. I still like it even if it is a custom.

    i did a quick search on Worthpoint and this was the card i was thinking of. I don't own this and i'm pretty sure it was a custom card.

    Should arrive today. One of my all time favorite cards. Low grade but nice eye appeal and 95% of the 'Fancy Frame'

    Very interesting card. There is a Mike Tyson card from this set too.

    I was shocked at the selling price of this signed item but perhaps the description can lead you to the answer. I bought a raw copy a few years ago and really had no clue where or when it was made.

    I'm surprised that PSA authenticated that one if its a custom job but whether it is or not,that is a great autographed card of Tyson. When I went looking for a scan of that MJ last night,i came across a thread on the Blowout forums saying that someone had been selling custom copies of this MJ while making them appear to be old. Don't know how true it is or not.

    @Dand522612 That sounds like it taste horrible lol

    PSA authenticated the auto, nothing more, hence the blue flip.

    @erikthredd The blue flip is just authenticating the signature. They no longer put the set name on the blip flips and they will allow reprints and custom cards in these holders. Anyone buying a Jordan or Gretzky in a blue flip better know what they are doing!

    That is cool item. Never saw a Tatto from the Vault. Now I’m going to see if any hockey tattoos were made by Topps.

    Freshly back from PSA (technically the 59 pickups were raw cards in August, but the 58 Willie was in October)

    1958 Topps Mays - The hairline crack in bottom center is the defect here. I thought card was pretty awesome otherwise.

    Great cards.
    Awesome Kershaw...is that considered his "rookie"? I just can't keep up with the modern cards.
    Great centering on the Jackie Robinson.
    Love the Jordan and the poster cards. So who are the 6 guys on the "supreme court"?
    First time Ive seen such a nice Wheaties Gehrig...sweet.
    The '63 Unitas....awesome.....I could go on and on.....

    Keep em coming guys.

    Interested in higher grade vintage cards. Aren't we all. image

    thanks @seebelow

    It's funny; the card will almost assuredly earn a grade of poor (it's been sent to SGC). And yet, it's got a certain eye appeal to it. I like to think some kid cut it off the box in 1935, tacked it to his cork board with 5 tacks to be extra secure, and listened to the Iron Horse smashing homers for the Yankees on the radio. This card was most certainly handled and definitely loved. And there's just not a ton of Gehrig cards out there from his playing days. I bet Aaron Judge ALREADY has more cards when you include all the variations...

    This is likely my last October pickup. The color is vibrant, the images and text are sharp and crisp and it was fairly well cut, all things considered. It's got some scratches but overall I think it looks pretty good...

    Reggie, nice pickups from the 80s and I'm guessing you have some really nice Michael Jordan cards. I was a huge fan back then.

    I finally picked up a nice 1962 Billy Williams second year card. There's not many of these around and I've been looking a long time. I lost out on the bidding last time I saw one of these.
