I just recieved the maddux in the scan today.
That completes the set of ALL SUPERSTARS (Hofers, Future Hofers, and Steroid Kings) from 1978 to 1993 PSA/DNA Autos.
Prior to 1978 I collect vintage
After 1993, I collect the rare rookie
I took on the feat of collecting all of the PSA/DNA Autographed Rookies of the stars of my era who did not have a rare rookie, or who's rookie is not considered vintage.
The person who first identifies all the PSA/DNA player autos that I have will get a card(s) of my choice with a BV of $50+.
If no one guesses exactly, whoever guesses closest will win.
List Player and Rookie year
Example
1986 Jose Canseco
1987 Greg Maddux

What did I win?
Although i have a few psa/dna autos that don't meet the criteria, again, the criteria for the set are:
HOFERS, POTENTIAL FUTURE HOFERS, STEROID KINGS THAT HAD A CHANCE OF HOF IF IT WEREN'T FOR.
I will say that your list is pretty good that is almost a complete superset, but you are missing at least one that I have and you need to remove several that dont meet the criteria. Also scratch 1993, i meant 1992.
New entries are allowed even if you missed the first time, but please make a new list rather than editing an existing list. If I see any edits in your original entry, that entry is void.
PS - you reminded me of a couple I should have but don't...again, closest list to my collection wins.

Future Hall-of-Fame players (the second basemen may be debateable, but not much else)"
2B: Alomar (88), Biggio (89), Kent (92)
really? Alomar and biggio are LOCKS for the HOF. Many would say the same for Kent.
<< <i>Potential future Hall-of-Fame players is a tough one. It's based entirely on the opinions of others. Others who have foolish ideas and who have changed their views so severely in recent times. I'll still give it a try
>>
RUnning late for work...I will say that when i say potential, i would say if anyone thinks they have a chance,...they are probably on my list.
Will share more tonite after work...yes, i will share scans...
