On to the Seaver next?
I hope to come across one some day.
Wilkerson on your radar? He has the same, but not publicized that much due to, obviously less popularity. I suspect there are others
Finally located my copy of the Wilkerson. I haven't tried tracking down an image of the uncut sheet to see if this is adjacent to the Clemens or Seaver ...

Oohhh Bob, I really like that Morant plate! Sig is right on the plate instead of an abominable sticker. Congrats!
thanks, dan! hope all is well.
really like the contenders line and the uniformity across all the sports in general. ironically enough, i hit the zion red /49 auto in the next box. if psa would get their orders in order, i'd post a pic.
never thought i'd get a redemption returned before an express sub! all bets off in 2020, i guess.
AL Batting Title in 1993, 3 gold gloves at first base, 2x WS champ with the Blue Jays in 92 and 93. 17 years in the bigs, 500 doubles. In 2016, Olerud was named Pac-12 Player of the Century. Went right from college to the majors. Olerud is a cousin of retired MLB player Dale Sveum.
First thing you may think of when you hear Olerud is the wearing of the batting helmet in the field.. Well, he was known for wearing a batting helmet in the field as a precaution, due to the aneurysm he suffered at age twenty.
LOVE those Donnies. Also that Olerud-- what a professional hitter he was. Great approach. And looking at that perfect 9 reminds me that the best 9s are just unlucky 10s.
Saw these little guys hanging out on eBay and could never resist a nice looking Mantle...
Also got the 52B signed Mick in hand so took a nicer pic. Instantly tied for favorite card in my collection.
I had a feeling a better and more appropriate pic was coming! 😉
the 52b was the hardest and last one I acquired. passing over 2 examples early on in my run will forever haunt me. In for a reholder but will post whenever she gets back. congrats on pegging that down already. for me, that’s a huge accomplishment and worthy of notation. big congrats on that.
Thank you, sir. It was your mentioning of its difficulty a ways back that prompted me to check the population data. Then after viewing the available images of past sold examples on VCP, I realized the pickings were slim indeed and had to jump on one if it surfaced.
I have a feeling that after the Goldin example closes this weekend, it will only get harder to reel in a signed 52 Bowman. I can't imagine the great feeling you must get looking at the whole run signed, what a massive collecting accomplishment!
Was able to nail down a toughie for my Topps Rookie Cup autograph set. This one gets me complete from 1960 to 1995 and only 34 to go in total.
And completely random pickup. One day I hope to build a home bar and the Official Beer of Yankee Stadium beer tap seemed like a good place to start on the accessories.

reliving the run thru you, I’ve thought about who has/had it tougher. kinda different animals. as blue flip service was still avail back then, kinda made the hunt very different knowing I would be crossing and going for card grade. several of mine were risks, but calculated ones. sure prices were lower, but man there was hardly any serious competition either. I had the luxury of being able to sit back and bide my time to a certain degree. zero concerns towards the end about grabbing something to fill the hole and feeling confident that an upgrade was feasible at any moment.
but today and now w blue service extinct, a majority already crossed w the card now being graded as the norm plus the emergence of the “historical autograph-only-grade collector market who could really care less about the card grade, rather their focus is solely on obtaining that dna 10 grade” mixed w/ just seeing some of the cards go at auction and realizing just how stiff the competition is out there, i don’t envy you one bit. well I do, but you get what im saying. like I said, it just seems like a totally different animal and hunt. and so far, your hunt has been spectacular. it’s been fun watching from the sidelines. I feel like the married dude who’s watching his friend slay it in the club!
Well said, thanks for the encouragement. It is a hobby mountain worth climbing. And that is one hell of a great analogy! I know exactly what you mean— will do my best to slay before the lights come on!

Yanks, are you doing all the rookie cups from every set over the years? And signed as well? I tried doing just the rookie cup cards about ten years ago. Got pretty close. Also learned about some interesting players who had some great unsung seasons. One guy who comes to mind was Jim Gentile. What a stud first two seasons that guy had. Never heard of him until I came across his trophy cup card. Would love to see pics of that whole run you're doing. I'd imagine there are some brutally tough/rare signed cards to find in that whole run. I'm 44 now and remember the thrill of opening 87 Topps when I was a kid. I started collecting in 86 and that series did not have the cup. So when they brought it back in 87 I was pumped anytime I pulled a Worrell or Ruffin or Canseco or Joyner. The sight of that cup made the pack a huge win.
I finally have in hand my 1964 Topps Baseball Wax Pack PSA-8 w/coin 4th Series (Hank Aaron Series). There are always anxious moments opening a package containing a vintage wax pack...since the "razor blade" brittle gum over the years can rip holes in the wax wrapper. Fortunately...this one arrived undamaged by the gum.
and for todd’s enjoyment and continuity purposes here’s my ‘62 and ‘56:
quick story on my ‘56 thought process. remember the decision vividly. there were three options available at the time. other 2 were horrifically oc, but all 3 were sharpies. mine above was blue flipped but was the best centered version I had ever seen. and I scoured the internet just for pics a lot. however it does have that paper loss at the top. kinda discreet mixing w the stands and border but still significant none the less. I knew i was limited to a 1 at best on the grade out. other two were in red “a” flips so there was zero risk on those actually being authentic cards, while the blue flip coulda been, getting back to that calculated risk thing i was hitting on earlier. as far as the 2 red flipped “a’s”, I don’t think were altered or anything, but back then “a’s” were kinda the norm. those 2 probably woulda 3 or 4’d grade-wise. the decision was so damn nerve wracking. what to do? obviously I’m shooting for the highest overall gpa but you’re a centering nut too, so you get it. in fact reliving it right now probably cements that i finally feel confident in the decision of giving up the grade for the eye appeal. 😉

Yep doing the whole run from 1960 to today all signed. I have a website that has them up if you'd like to check it out: www.questfortherookiecup.com. I've found the same thing with the cards since I started it. So many amazing stories of guys that were absolutely elite briefly but ultimately had short careers. The biggest challenge left on this is the Asian players. They are at least somewhat achievable while they're in the states but once their careers are over here it's almost impossible and they seem to be reluctant signers as a group. Tsuyoshi Shinjo and Kazuhiro Sasaki are two from the early 2000s that will be tough - especially Shinjo. Thanks for the kind words!

Here are my 6 boxes all wrapped BBCE FASC (Fritsch Vault).
In my humble opinion I think 1977 Topps Cloth is one of the coolest card products ever produced. The graphics/content on a 77 Topps Cloth case, the boxes, the pack wrappers and importantly the cards themselves are desirable all the way through!! Eye popping, colorful vintage at its finest.

Posting a few 1998 Mark McGwire HR History that came back. As my prior posts have shown I've subbed these piecemeal as I am working on the set of McGwire only. With the return of these 5 slabs I am down to just 4 Mac's left and I'd have to check on where they are ( I know card # 7 is in grading not sure on the other 3 left)
Been a slow slog as these have to be done in spurts as I like mixing resale in with PC items when I sub. Sorta pays for future subs that way
I am fine with PSA 9 and 10 on Pacific stuff as its incredibly difficult the way they were produced . I'll eventually upgrade all the 8's. Without further ado the recent 5 slabs back. Will be great when I finally finish been 18 months of bulks piece mealing each time

At first quick glance on your '56, I honestly did not see the paper loss— talk about a serendipitous location on the card for that. Really amazing how it blends with both the stand imagery and the border. The centering, corners, image, and the bold sig really draw the eye, and you should feel 100% confident that card was the right pick. Tremendous '56. Eye appeal all day, every day for me over anything typed on the flip, especially with these signed cards. And that '56 has it in spades.
And GOOD LORD on that 55 bro— the odds of a 55 Bowman being centered and in that condition AND signed? That card is phenomenal.
Saw your 52T signed earlier— love that write up! I'm gonna need one with a faint little wrinkle in it, ideally in the border like on my unsigned one. For a signed 52T like yours I could trade out everything non-Mantle in my collection and still not get there. '62 is real beast also and one I was itching to lock in; always loved that one with the tough wood borders, the OG ancestor of the 87s I grew up with.
Finally got one of these again! These are some great cards! Leaf really was ahead of the pack with ideas.... This actually feels like a baseball! Great card!!
Incredible signed Mantles. I sometimes wish I would have picked up some signed 60s baseball cards in addition to my AFL stuff, but you can't have everything...
