I am sending this in for grading and can't figure out which modern variation it is.

Any help appreciated? Also, ideas on
value in a 9? Thx

    it is this one.... There is only 1 autographed version of this card...

    2020 Panini Donruss Action All-Pros George Kittle #AAPGK Autograph

    Value for a PSA 9 I'd say $75-150...

    Let me know if interested in selling raw Balco. I am a 49er fanatic and always interested 49er cards.

    I was glad to see he had a thread, then I wasn’t.

    1983 Fleer - the one you could get in packs. It made the Fleer box the one to get - at least in Chicago. Was hoping for Kittle - not Sandberg or Gwynn or Boggs - and I was a Cubs fan.

    Ah, well you see I got my first price guide in 1984, and it was very clear that the Strawberry and Kittle were the cards to get in that set. I had a bad experience with 1982 Fleer so ignored them until the wonder that was the 1984 Update became prohibitively expensive.

    Thought it was really cool to see a R Kittle thread too. Then the letdown

    Was he that big in 83? Before my collecting years and I was really too young with zero parental guidance on who was good outside the Yankees.

    If I recall he has a super hot April/May. Banged 20 HRs early then drifted down batting average etc. A few years of same. I could be off a bit.

    He won the AL Rookie of the Year in 1983 while being 3rd in the league in both HR and RBIs. That White Sox team was a surprise winner of the AL West. Back in 1983 all anyone looked at was the Triple Crown stats and very few fans understood the value of OBP.

    I made a lot of money back then selling Kittles. At least for a college kid.

    Others were Willie McGee, Alan Wiggins, Gary Gaetti, David Green and Frankie Viola.
