Red Man Custom Cut Auto Cards Ernie Banks added

HeritageAddict · January 2, 2009 11:55AM

I've had a couple people ask me about my sig line cards, so I thought that I would start a thread for my custom cut Red Man autos and I'll just add to this first post as I make more.

VERY nice!

nam812 · January 2, 2009 12:03PM

Great work as usual Doran.

Blackborder · January 2, 2009 12:04PM

Nice, I like them! Plus you get the elusive Stan Musial who was card shy in the mid 50's.

perkdog · January 2, 2009 12:04PM

Doran let me tell you for the 100th time that your work is amazing!

Karb · January 2, 2009 1:00PM

Damn you do nice work. Very nice!!

VitoCo1972 · January 2, 2009 1:00PM

Doran, how thick are those?

HeritageAddict · January 2, 2009 1:17PM

Thanks for all of the compliments guys. Mike, they are about the thickness of two heritage cards.

MooseDog · January 3, 2009 12:19AM

Nice work, and not to be nit-picky but one of the things I do for a living is edit...and it would appear you have misspelled "National Leaguue" on the some of the NL guys.

D'oh!

TNP777 · January 3, 2009 12:37AM

Beautiful cards, Doran - thanks for sharing them again.

Ladder7 · January 3, 2009 12:44AM

Beats the heck out of the big manufacturers' examples, terrific work.

HeritageAddict · January 3, 2009 12:59AM

MooseDog, no worries, I caught that myself as I was adding the images. I wondered how long it would take for somebody to catch it. Oh well, they are for me anyway and I can always redo them if I get the urge.

Griffins · January 3, 2009 1:59AM

Ok, I'll admit I saw those in your sig line about a month ago and spent almost an hour on ebay trying to find them. Really nice job Doran!

fur72 · January 3, 2009 2:59AM

Nice job again Doran. I think you should work on the 2009 A&G for Topps.

bman90278 · January 3, 2009 3:14AM

Doran, As always you have produced some very nice and unique cards. As a fellow digital artist, I really appreciate your works and love the way you use the autos. When you end up being a big time card maker you can sign those cards and they can become personal "error" cards that will sell for lots of $$$$ .

Nice stuff!!

VitoCo1972 · January 3, 2009 3:18AM

These are really awesome and the thickness I would think does add to the quality. Have you ever considered doing B&W Exhibits with cut autos? Could be seriously cool. I would consider paying you do do a few of those for me when I get some $$!

eyebone · January 3, 2009 3:19AM

Very nice. Think they look great on the red man cards.

IchiroDeported · January 3, 2009 3:21AM

how many of these do you currently own, or have you sold them off?
just curious... if the Feller was for sale

HeritageAddict · January 3, 2009 4:35PM

Mike, we can figure something out, just let me know when you get the autos and I will start working something up.

nightcrawler · January 3, 2009 4:44PM

Magnificent work.

Harmon Killebrew gets my nod for best sig of the bunch.

divecchia · January 3, 2009 6:27PM

Great job with the cards... The Red Man set is one of my favorites.

Donato

MBMiller25 · January 4, 2009 12:27AM

These cards are georgous. What a fantastic artistic gift you have. I have to ask, Are any of these for sale, and will you do custom work?

I am truly amazed! I thought this was a Heritage product insert and wanted to collect them! They are one of the most beautiful relics I have seen --- truly amazing! It doesn't get better than this! Very nice job --- REDMAN's are AWESOME!

HeritageAddict · January 4, 2009 7:58AM

Thanks guys, I'm glad you enjoy them, hopefully I'll have a few new cards to add next week.

bman90278 · January 6, 2009 2:34AM

Doran, Do you have a link on your website for all of your custom cards? I was wanting to take a looksie.

Brian

HeritageAddict · January 6, 2009 11:16AM

Brian, no unfortunately I do not have a page set up specifically for that, maybe one of these days I'll get motivated to do something like that.

HeritageAddict · January 9, 2009 4:11AM

Well I haven't picked up any new autos to use for Red Man cards, so I decided to make a few 52 Bowman style cards with some of my duplicates. Images added to the first post.

nam812 · January 9, 2009 4:50AM

The 1952 Bowman style cuts look great Doran.

HeritageAddict · January 9, 2009 9:01AM

Thanks Nick, I was really happy with the way they turned out.

zep33 · January 9, 2009 9:06AM

everything looks awesome!!!

HeritageAddict · January 12, 2009 12:09PM

Just added four new cards to the first post.

perkdog · January 12, 2009 12:22PM

For the 100th time...

Doran you are the MAN when it comes to custom cards! Unbelievable work

HeritageAddict · January 13, 2009 5:32AM

Thanks again for the compliments Paul, I was hoping to add a 52 Bowman style Snider as well but the auto is too big.

stown · January 13, 2009 5:55AM

baseballfan · January 13, 2009 11:32PM

these cards are great, how do you go about making cards like this?

great job, well done

HeritageAddict · January 21, 2009 11:43AM

I'm waiting on some more autos to show up so that I can make another run of Red Man cards. I wanted to make this Snider auto into a 52 Bowman, but the auto was just too big, so it ended up being a 50 Bowman instead.

VitoCo1972 · January 21, 2009 11:46AM

nice job Doran! Out of curiosity, is the goal on the Red mans to do the full sat with cut autos? That'd be insanely cool...not that it isn't already

intence · January 21, 2009 11:58AM

very nice collection. great scans too

HeritageAddict · January 21, 2009 12:17PM

Mike, that would be nice but there are a couple of tough autos in the Red Man set so it may not happen. So I'll just keep making them until I run into an auto I can't obtain, and I'll sprinkle in a few non original redman along the way like the Aaron, Kaline, Killebrew and eventually a Mantle and a Koufax.

HeritageAddict · January 23, 2009 10:13AM

I finally got some more autos in for my Red Man cards, here are the six newest additions.

brianwintersfan · January 23, 2009 10:15AM

Would love the Pafko and Logan for my Braves collection!
Beautiful cards once again!

longtimemetsfan · January 23, 2009 12:40PM

Amazing!!!

Beautiful cards.

TNP777 · January 23, 2009 2:56PM

superb additions, Doran! You chose a terrific set for the cuts!

HeritageAddict · January 24, 2009 6:23AM

Thanks guys, Steve if I ever opt for a different auto for those two I will keep you in mind, I prefer ballpoint so that is a good possibility. Geordie, you are right these look really cool with the cuts, wish they would make a heritage style Red Man set.

HeritageAddict · January 25, 2009 12:01AM

Here are a couple more Bowman style cards, I should have a few more Red Man to add later today.

BunchOBull · January 25, 2009 1:46AM

You are a machine! Great looking stuff.

mickeymantle24 · January 25, 2009 1:53AM

Those cards are so awesome. Have you ever worked at a place that makes them? They look better than the cards Topps and other brands make now.

HeritageAddict · January 25, 2009 1:59AM

Thanks guys, and no I've never worked anywhere that makes them. It's nothing even similar to my actual job other than I use a computer for both.

BunchOBull · January 25, 2009 2:06AM

May I ask how you're cutting these Doran?

HeritageAddict · January 25, 2009 2:07AM

Ross, I use a regular paper cutter for the cards and an x-acto knife for the auto windows.
