    My guess is you have one of the "Marcus Henderson" created variations: Article.

    About half way down, under "Talk about some of the "geeky" collector things you added." he talks about some the variations he made. I can't tell from your picture what you have, but it's definitely a variation.

    Would it be considered a variation if he did it w/o the production run knowing? If he had 5 pens 5 different colors nd no one knew how many he signed in what color? When I read the article it sounded like all of his cards were made "variants" by him. but thats just me...

    Let me see if I can get an answer from somebody that knows him. He's a regular at my local and the owner told me he talked to him about this and showed me some variations. I'll see if he has additional info about types.

    Hello Guys!

    I joined the forum just to post in this thread. I haven't really collected cards since I was a kid, but on a recent trip to a comic/card store, I picked up a few packs of this set, and pulled this out of a Jamie Shields rip:

    image


    I was pretty much hooked right away, and have now opened 2+ boxes. I'm also picking up whatever minis seem underpriced on auction sites, and am going to at least work on basically all the mini sets. Base minis, black border, all the inserts & A&G I am sure I will finish, eventually. NNO & the extended minis I am not so sure, but I'm going to work on them. I really have no interest in any other card sets, but this one is a ton of fun.

    Anyways, just thought I would introduce myself. I am also a reds fan, so I am interested in most reds A&G stuff, especially the young guys (Votto, Bruce, Cueto, & Volquez).

    I just went by the local shop and apparently just missed Marcus Henderson by about 15 minutes (he was in shopping), but asked the store owner about the different variations. He said there were 5 with inscriptions, 5 in gold with numbers, 5 with skull and crossbones and others. He wasn't sure about the rest, but would ask him for me when he comes in next (which they thought would be later today). Who knew Henderson was such a card geek.

    welcome jvs! With all your mini goals, better buy a few cases, so you'll have not only a good start, but a good batch of trade baits.

    << <i>Hello Guys!

    I joined the forum just to post in this thread. I haven't really collected cards since I was a kid, but on a recent trip to a comic/card store, I picked up a few packs of this set, and pulled this out of a Jamie Shields rip:

    I was pretty much hooked right away, and have now opened 2+ boxes. I'm also picking up whatever minis seem underpriced on auction sites, and am going to at least work on basically all the mini sets. Base minis, black border, all the inserts & A&G I am sure I will finish, eventually. NNO & the extended minis I am not so sure, but I'm going to work on them. I really have no interest in any other card sets, but this one is a ton of fun.

    Anyways, just thought I would introduce myself. I am also a reds fan, so I am interested in most reds A&G stuff, especially the young guys (Votto, Bruce, Cueto, & Volquez).

    Oh noes. Sup jvs. Nice pull. The Reds huh? Classic! Now just bet against the Reds in baseball every night and you can afford a few cases of these.

    I finally have everything sorted, just need to figure write out needs/trade list. Hopefully tomorrow night.

    I'm in a similar boat - one more box to open tonight, then a ton of sorting for me to do. I don't want to miss the fun of trading!
