I’m excited to have just finished my run of unopened packs from 1969-1983 coupled with all PSA / DNA HOF Rookie cards from same years. Thought this will make a cool display. It has been labor of my wallet for some time, and unfortunately, I had to sell others to get this finished. I wasn’t too focused about the card grades - more on nice autographs. Just got the last 2 I needed - Reggie and Schmidt. (Also bought Parker, Murphy and Garvey, just in case!). Will post scans as soon as last 2 come in.

Thanks for letting me share this will the group.

    Who's on the index card? The whole thing is insane.

    Haha thanks guys. The index card is actually Roy Campanella but it won’t pass DNA. Was scribbled by Roy for my Dad at the Polo Grounds. Still a keeper!

    The fabulous rookie class of 75, along with a bonus OPC pack. How can you not love Yount’s signature.

    And to wrap things up, 1983. OPC pack for now, but with Gwynn on top.

    Thanks for letting my share my project. Now need to halt spending for a while!

    Brilliant! I like seeing all the packs and the great signatures. The 75's provide an interesting perspective about how player autos can change over time or in the moment.

    Thanks for sharing.

    That’s simply incredible. Love the way you ended, in style, with an awesome pack. I can only imagine for how long and how much this project cost you. Thanks for sharing.
