Been after a Dryden autograph for a long time. Second year OPC is in real nice condition to boot.

Dit Clapper. Wow. It must be great to live in Canada. Hockey collectors dream.

Congrats.

That's what I mean about living up north. Very nice pickups. Envious

Irv, just picked up a King Clancy Brian MacFarland, Dave Hodge signed Leafs program. Hope it's real anyway. Maybe you could give an opinion?

I wish I could, Neil, but I have zero experience when it comes to autographs.

I would see what jb217676 (Jeff) has to say as I would assume he has way more experience in this field than what I do.

Nice pick ups, BTW. I hope the sigs are legit.

Hi guys,
Not an autograph expert but the three of them did work together. Chances are great that they are legit.

[nicknock-2013]

Thanks Jeff. Encouraging is better than a nope.

The Clancy looks good, but most likely signed very late in life. Very shaky.

[nicknock-2013]

I was thinking the very same thing about the Clancy being signed in his later years. Compared to earlier signatures the difference is evident. Thank you for your input.

Very nice, Neil!

[nicknock-2013]

Those holders make these cards look great. But their customer service leaves a lot to be desired.

I had my 1934-44 Bee Hive Hockey Photo of Dit Clapper slabbed by PSA as a "cut" autograph since the photo became separated from the backing paper before I sent it in. There was barely any glue holding old Dit together, now he looks leaner and meaner!

That turned out great, Jeff!

Glad you're enjoying it.

Picked up this 1950-51 Cleveland Barons Team Photo on ebay. It was listed poorly with a bad description, something like "photo with autographs". One of those 11 autographs is hockey hall of famer Fred "Bun" Cook!

[jb217676]

Here's a Boston Bruins Game Ticket Envelope from the 1949-50 Season

[irv]

Thanks again, Neil. Pretty happy to have this!

[jb217676]

Nice pick-up Dale! Here are a few pieces I got in the mail this week:

• 1932-33 Moncton Hawks School Notebook. I've never seen one of these before!
• 1967-68 Montreal Canadiens Team Issue of Jacques Lemaire (Facsimile Autograph, Rookie)
• 1967-68 Montreal Canadiens Team Issue of Serge Savard (Facsimile Autograph, Pre OPC Rookie)
• 1972-73 Letraset Action Transfers of Bobby Orr (Dallas Smith / Walt McKechnie)

Nice Bee Hive! Here's my last pick-up from the Toronto Expo. It's an early 1980's Edmonton Oilers Wood Plaque that I personally had signed by Paul Coffey & Grant Fuhr at the Expo.

Story goes that this plaque originally hung in the ticket office of Buffalo Memorial Auditorium, former home of the Buffalo Sabres!

[nicknock-2013]

That is unique. Great autos to have on it too. I'm going to get up to one of those Toronto expos some day. Can't find good quality early sixties cards here at a fair price. Dealers at shows here who do have hockey seem to think they're holding gold, which they are here, but I think I'd find better options up north. Nice pickup Jeff.

Here's a rare autograph from a guy that played just nine NHL games for the Red Wings. Right up my alley. Unique oddball hockey autos. Tony Licari. Lived to be 99. Got this from Ray here on Net54.

Normally a baseball only guy. I picked up these and some football cards. I am getting the bug to expand into other sports I think.

Please forgive the photos

Here's an original 1976 Canada Cup 3.5" x 5" snapshot photo of Bobby Orr & Ivan Hlinka signed by the two players. This photo was part of a group of photos supplied by Team Canada to the media and comes from the collection of a former sports writer who covered the 1976 Canada Cup Tournament.

[nicknock-2013]

Jeff, sweet item there, and rare for sure.

X2! Very nice P/U, Jeff.

[jb217676]

Thanks guys! I just spoke to the seller of the Orr/Hlinka photo on the phone and worked out a deal for 5 more one-of-a-kind signed photos, one is a Vadnais/Orr that is the same as my other photo but has a 1976 postcard back!

[Jcfowler6]

Started in on the non-baseball and I can't stop.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[jb217676]

From the same source as my Hlinka/Orr, here's a 1976 Canada Cup Carol Vadnais/Bobby Orr that has been signed by both of them. This one was turned into a postcard!

Also, a 1964-65 Niagara Falls Flyers Team Photo with early images of Bernie Parent & Derek Sanderson

[irv]

Very nice, Jeff!

[jb217676]

Thanks Irv! Picking up a bunch of rare Orr items lately, here's two more:

• 1971-72 Photograph of Bobby Orr & Derek Sanderson
• 1973-74 Team Issued Photo of Bobby Orr

If there is one hockey player to collect from, it is definitely Orr cards and memorabilia, imo.

I know I wish I had more!

Great P/U's again, Jeff!

Good luck with your quest.

Two weeks ago after numerous prior attempts, I finally reached a live Panini customer service person. I was concerned about redemption's that were owed to me. There was a Kobe HRX card redeemed 11/29/12, and James Harden Au card redeemed 8/31/14.
The HRX was supposed to be a video card. I was told that they were never uploaded with video. They promised to send the non video HRX card with a extra Kobe AU card to make up for the mishap. They also promised that they were processing my Harden Au card as we spoke.
I finally received my package. I'm very disappointed after waiting 5 years for something that was never completed, and 3 years for a scribble AU of a guy who makes millions, and can't take the time to sign his name properly. The old bait and switch; just think, I had to track them down for this. Almost forgot.... they still owe me a card from May 2016.

HRX.. What! No video



Extra card



James Harden Scribble

[quinnsryche]

Got this one in a trade, really happy with it.

[Kurri17]

Wow! Nice Gretz. I remember those, one of those that eluded me. /2800, that's funny now. Great pick up.
