Posted By: <b>James Gallo</b><p>I found this in my cards I collected as a kid a lot time ago. I wonder if the autograph is real :-D<br /><br /><img src="http://www.thetoyheaven.com/images/items/baseballcards/bbcrosen.jpg"><br /><br />The only place I can think I would have gotten this would have been at the Nassau Coliseum shows in the early 1990s....<br /><br />Ah those were the days wish I had bought more pre=war stuff then.<br /><br />James G<br><br>Looking for 1915 Cracker Jacks and 1909-11 American Caramel E90-1.

Posted By: <b>David Poses</b><p>I miss the guy who used to be on the Home Shopping Network who sounded like Chris Farley but looked nothing like him- every deal he had was the best deal ever. <br /><br />"Folks, Honestly and sincerely, you will never, ever, EVER find a deal as amazing as this. On top of the Gem Mint 10 1986 Topps Vince Coleman, the 1981 Rickey Henderson, the 1984 Fleer Joe Carter and the sealed, unopened, factory wrapped box of 1988 Fleer wax packs, you get Two- NOT ONE- TWO 1987 Donruss JESSE BARFIELD DIAMOND KINGS!" <br /><br />And there was always a guy on the phone he'd interact with named Kenny who vouched for everything the sales guy said. <br /><br />Ah, those were the days...

Posted By: <b>Steve Dawson</b><p>David,<br /><br />That would be the infamous Don West! The cleaning crew probably had to mop the floor after every show since he seemed to spit out a wad every time he'd say anything with a p or s in it!!!<br /><br />And the guy on the phone was the even more infamous Kenny Goldin of Scoreboard.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Edited to thank Rich Klein for slipping in under the wire and stealing my thunder <img src="/images/sad.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br /><br /><img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14><br />Steve

Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>Looks like it has a shot at a PSA 9. And autographed to boot. Are you sure the autograph is real? <img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14><br />JimB
