Trout stuff is going for amazing money. I couldn’t believe what that rookie card went for, the other night. $147K!

2002 Joe Mauer... the piece de resistance
 

Hi all,

Here is my most recent pickup and probably will be for a long while. I've been keeping my eye on Joe's 2002 Bowman Chrome Auto and finally found this raw example for a good deal. Joe (Wonder Boy as my Great Grandma calls him) is my favorite ball player I've been able to watch play in person and a card from early in his career, not to mention THE card, is pretty neat!

That's simply outstanding. And a great photo match.

Thanks! I'm excited to have won it.

I have been looking for a complete ticket from the Three Rivers Stadium opening game for a while. I'm happy to finally land a nice example. BTW that Trout bat is awesome and the Mauer card is very cool congrats. There have been some great pickups this month.
