So I have over 100 different Perez Steele postcards that are autographed...this includes a Rachael Robinson signed Jackie, a Pete Rose signed Ty Cobb, and some ersatz Perez Steele's I created from the original paintings that were auctioned off a couple years ago (i.e. guys like Blyleven, Herzog, etc.). Anyway, anyone who is still alive, I have their offficial Perez Steele issue signed. I'm down to the following that I need to finish the collection:

Joe Cronin, Hank Greenberg, Red Ruffing, Lloyd Waner, Roy Campanella, Stan Coveleski, Waite Hoyt, Satchel Paige, George Kelly, Earl Averill, Walt Alston, Richie Ashburn & Kirby Puckett.

Show em' if you have any of the above!!! Finishing this collection is a long held dream...

No scans from me although I got to about 100 or so before quitting (I couldn't justify spending hundreds for a Richie Ashburn autograph).

Curious, has Perez created a new painting for all of those since the PC production halted? I think that's a neat idea to create your own versions.

Ashburn went for over $13k a year or so ago!
Of the Great Moments series that was the toughest for me, followed by a Campy auto pen (if that even counts) and Lasorda for some reason.

Are you serious?? Wow! How much is Paige. I thought he was like $5K? I'm way out of date.

The previous 2 examples (one of which I got) went for about $3k each. This was pretty shocking.

And the one before that went for $5,676, that one has staple holes in it.

These are from my set. I sold off my Paige and Kerr cards after Hurricane Sandy to help pay for repairs. I'll eventually replace the Paige (not at the ridiculous price of 17k, because it was graded?) but not the Kerr. I still need a few of the last players, Fisk, Yount, Seaver et al, but I have their unsigned cards so hopefully they can be signed through the mail (help?) or at a show.

I will eventually replace the Paige (which went so high because it was graded a 10, ridiculous) but not the Kerr. I still need a few of the later issue cards signed, Fisk Yount, Ryan, Seaver, Brett et al, but I have their unsigned cards and hopefully i'll get them signed either TTM (help?) or get robbed to get them at a show.
