Let's see your favorite oversized card

lawnmowerman · April 6, 2019 11:20AM

Last time it was the mini. This time, let's see the jumbo (anything larger than standard) that reminds you why you love collecting.
Mine is this 2000 Emmitt Smith Stadium Club Tunnel Vision. It was made using high quality photo stock. The high gloss finish really lends to the lifelike feel.

Hiya Matt

I haven't taken advantage of the jumbo holder yet.

But, I do plan to have a '34 Quaker Babe Ruth premium photo done.

I do have T3 size cards.

Oh! They "are" T3s.

Here's a favorite - Nap Lajoie PSA 5

edit: here's the BR premium I'd like to have put in "carbon freeze" by PSA:

Good stuff Mike. Guess I should have said oversized instead if jumbo. Guess I'll edit the title lol

Liking the Namath.
One like for you!

nam812 · April 6, 2019 8:18PM

Is that Namath yours, or a borrowed scan? Either way it's insane.

Or this one because I own the original Dick Perez:

I should offer this card a small introduction. Of the three ‘official’ rookie cards that Mantle appeared on, this has the distinction of being the only one to feature a photograph and also has by far the lowest pop; there are only 76 copies graded of this card and precisely 6 in a higher graded slab than this one.

While I don't own any oversized cards, I am in favor of any thread that has a Ross appearance.

Had to go with Bgs on this one back before PSA did 8x10s. Would love to cross it due to the distracting mylar sleeve. The stained glass look would present so much better in a PSA slab.

Not me!

Kid4hof03 · April 7, 2019 11:24AM

There is some great stuff in this thread, I love the Emmitt's, that 1921 Ruth is probably my favorite image of him.

I have a few that I love, will start with this Dandy Don

I collect a lot of basketball regional issues, quite a few of them are oversized, here are a few of my favorites

lilmule · April 7, 2019 12:22PM

Here’s mine.

Thanks bud! That's an impressive grade on your Perreault. Especially since oversized cards really don't get the same care that their regular sized brethren do. Before getting them slabbed, handling and storage is sometimes a challenge.

magicpapa · April 7, 2019 12:37PM

heres mine

stevegarveyfan · April 7, 2019 1:10PM

Here's my contribution to the thread. Probably not a high dollar value, but insanely difficult for the Garvey collector.

Kid4hof03 · April 7, 2019 1:25PM

stevegarveyfan, that's really cool, I've never heard of it before.

Love the Meredith!

nam812 · April 7, 2019 1:36PM

The shape of the cutout over Maravich's head, and the way his hair blends in with the color of the box made me think of Marlo Thomas. lol

Was THRILLED when I bought this! Then subbed it myself. Pop 2, none higher.

What's the background story on this box? I've never heard of Transogram

Transogram were very rudimentary/crappy little action figures issued in 1969 as solos and in 1970 in 3 packs. I bought the complete ‘69 box with figurine last year, removed the little guy and subbed the box. Only the 2nd one PSA has graded. Still need the single card. And the little mini card that can be cut off the box too

I have the 1970 single, but not the 3 card panel or the complete box. Or the mini.

Here are some pics of the ‘69 Transogram box and figure before the sub:
