    I cracked out all of my BGS slabs and got them signed in the American Icon signing. I got three BGS 9's and and 8.5 signed.


    Hogan creased one of them and you can barely see it and the others came out great.


    I thought it would be sweet to have an example signed with razor sharp corners.

    what kind prices does Hogan get at signings these days. Sucks one got creased, is Hulk known to do the bend the card stuff.. Any pics, did you get them done in blue.

    Need to get a cert Hogan auto one of these days. Hope he is in Leaf Legends of Pro wrestling set. I would think he will be. Leaf has got him to sign in Ali stuff.

    Here is a scan of one of them.

    It was a tough deal. It took over four months. Hogan postponed the signing several times due to back problems. He claims he is not doing anymore signings. With pro wrestlers never say never.

    I went in with a dealer friend of mine and we got a small discount of $69 and then spent the fees to get them in PSA holders.

    He did the signing through American Icon autographs out of CA.

    In total I got 9 cards signed. I kept 7 and gave two away as Christmas presents. I kept the 4 Wrestling All Stars, a 1985 Topps #1 and each of his O-Pee-Chee version cards.

    It was a bit of a disappointment about the card being damaged but you have to work really hard to see it. It presents very well.

    I think longer term the signed Wrestling All Stars card is going to be a great card to own.

    Five minutes to go.

    I was thinking $700 plus. Let's see what happens!

  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭
    $587. Still a very strong price.

  • No snipers at the end. With such a high profile card I kinda figured there would have been at least one. Still a great price.

  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Not only does mine have better centering, it has four razor sharp corners. I have three others like I said and they are up on the wall. One day I may take them down and scan them too.

    This card was a PSA 6 signed. A nice card but not a blazer.

    The Andre raw card is heating up on EBAY now. Should be interesting to see how that does tomorrow night.

  • kingbeeswaxkingbeeswax Posts: 1,423 ✭✭✭
    I was hoping to get that Hogan for $500 but guess that's not possible anymore. The one that went for $407 I think had a crease in it and i asked and this one does not. I have 2 already(one has creases, both PSA graded) but I always want more of this great card signed.
  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭
    You can never have to many 1982 Wrestling All Stars Hulk Hogan cards.
  • Not sure does psa/dna have pop report on signed Hogan.
    Wonder if Andre signed many of these.
  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭
    The only one's that show up in the pop reports are the Red Flips.

    Mike Navarro has one signed that was JSA authenticted and I have seen one raw one on EBAY that the guy who sold Navarro his said was fake.

    I highly doubt there are many Andre's as a large percentage of the signed copies are from recent signings.

    I picked this one up a couple weeks ago, not sure if I was going to get it or not because the picture looked funny but it came and it looks nm-mt so I sent it in to be graded and I hope it does get an 8 image

  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Mike the Hogan BGS 9 went for $810. That is the highest price for one of those in a while but not as high as they were going for in July of 2010 before any BGS 9.5's existed.


    Adicted to EBAY it looks as if you were the first to see that card and snagged it. Did you make any scans of the card where you can see the corners before sending it in? That is a great price regardless. Good luck!

    Did Bruiser sign his real name most of time???? Has to be a rare one.

    Yeah those sticker auctions are funny. >>



    Alen has two of those. I bought one for my signed set. It's fairly hard to find that card signed

  • Yeah, I would think bruiser auto would be a tough one in this set.
    Cool he did sign his real full name.

    Does Hogan ever sign his real name? would be cool to get one done with it. Probably have to pay inscription plus regular fee for him to do it if he ever does some more signings.

    I should say to remain even with Bruiser autos...and in total number....he (navarro) has some huge rare autos...I guess I have quality cards with many of my sigs....gotta keep it going. This was easily financed with some wrestling all star sales......

    The card prices have definitively been strong so nice way to use your early buys to advance your collection.

    The market has changed quite a bit.
  • thenavarrothenavarro Posts: 7,497 ✭✭✭
    Congrats Rob. Glad you got that one. I counted today and I think between us we have 100 of the 108

    I wonder if there is anyone that has us beat. I'm sure there is someone out there, probably a couple people that have more then us autographed

    The Grand Wizard


    The Grand Wizard Ernie Roth died in October of 1983 so there may not be any of these signed. I have been told that he did not like to sign and was a tough autograph to make things even more difficult.

    of these guys who you have left. Have you even seen any signed cards come up for sale of them or know people who have them locked away in their vaults. Suppose living guys can get done. Has Inoki done any US signings.

    Has anyone ever done a Grand Wizard cut auto. He was on that cool auction Navarro posted with a bunch tough sigs on it. Had Blackwell as well.

  • wrestlingcardkingwrestlingcardking Posts: 4,555 ✭✭✭✭
    If that auction was cheaper I would have loved to have done cut autos of Blackwell and The Grand Wizard.

    I have never seen a Sweetan and heard he is in very poor health.

    I am sure there are a few Inokis floating around.

    Haven't heard much at all with Thornton.

    I have heard of a Ray Stevens with a first name only on it.

    I have seen a Jules Strongbow and he may be at a signing soon.

    There are some Buddy Rose autos around.

  • Nice breakdown. Wonder if a big autograph company will bring in Inoki. Sure American Icon has tried. they have had good luck bringing in some big name wrestlers.
  • I know this set has a lot of hardcore collectors collecting it and Hogan has quite a few auto variations to it. Surprised at how much they still sell for. Dpeck or anyone else work on this set ? Hogan signed most with just HH I believe

  • Dpeck100Dpeck100 Posts: 10,912 ✭✭✭✭✭
    That price does not surprise me. The seller is legit and is really interested in BGS graded Wrestling All Stars.

    These auto cards have been steadily moving up for a while. I am not interested in modern wrestling cards but these are the cards to own for those that are.

    They are very rare and set collectors want them. This was a huge run in the business in WCW and Hulk Hogan led the way. This is a great card for sure!

    Personally I think the best signed Hogan card is the 1982 Wrestling All Stars.
