Packs, that autograph almost makes me want to be a 'cuts' collector. But I still don't have that much faith.

Very cool piece.

I owned that Hoy once (before it was slabbed) and it is a REAL beauty. Very bold fountain pen ink and a cool notation of his career. Congrats on a great pickup!

I'm really excited about it. I felt like it was one lot that slipped through the cracks. I'm not a cuts collector either but I felt confident in it since it's actually a trimmed down GPC.

Picked up this signed 1922 E120 American Caramel card of Joe Hauser. So far its my oldest signed card, hope to get a signed T206 someday.

Was looking to get that (whom a fellow board member owns with some other great signed cards), but I got this instead (from a different fellow board member).

I actually got that card signed. Back in about 1989 I was looking all over for one and that was the only one I had any luck getting. I really didn't want a trimmed one but beggars Cant be choosers. Joe was a great signer and always wrote a little letter with the autograph. Glad to see it's still around

Did someone mention signed 33 goudeys?

Ever since I bought Ron Keurajian's book, my interest in baseball autographs has been rekindled. I've dug out my old inventory/collection and found I have over 100 HOF autos, most common but none of recent members. I've already won a couple lots in the just closed RR Auction and have a bid in with Lelands. Anyway, I drove about an hour yesterday to visit a coin dealer. I bought some coins and medals and also these gold plaques. All except the Barlick are dupes but at the price he was asking, I couldn't pass them up.

If you are interested in selling any of the dupes I could probably stand to upgrade a couple of the names you have shown here.

Got my tickets back from the Nolan Ryan Foundation. They are a bargain at $35 a signature.

Nice, Randall!

[earlywynnfan]

Yay, me!!! This has been #1 on my autograph "wish list" for quite some time, but haven't had the cajones to pay $1000+ for one. Not perfect, but nice and vintage and I am very happy. Combined with the Cecil Travis bat I posted in the GU section, this has been my best Christmas ever, collecting-wise. (And it will keep on getting better when I unwrap Ron K's book!)
