Thanks,

Picked up Warren Spahn.

Now down to final 2!

Cubswin82 03-16-2016 06:30 PM

Final 2!!!
 
Looking for the last 2 cards needed for the set:

Buddy Kerr
Pete Reiser

Cubswin82 04-03-2016 06:00 PM

Does anyone have either of these 2 cards signed? Finding it funny that these last 2 cards are so difficult to find!

Cubswin82 07-26-2016 08:51 AM

Bump!

Reiser was extremely popular during his playing days, but passed in 1981. I've only seen a few cards signed by him. Surprising given his popularity and longevity as a manager, then again not too many people would send cards through the mail, and who brought along a 1948 card of a now manager to get signed in the 70s.

Kerr being born, bred, as well as having played in NY, and living until 2006 is certainly strange that he hasnt come up yet. Maybe the Bowmans weren't as popular, or as plentiful to have signed?

Same type of things happen in every year of collecting a signed set. You see 20 signed cards of a guy, but not a single 19XX.

You are lucky to have picked small set!

Cubswin82 09-07-2016 03:01 PM

Still looking for the final 2.

Cubswin82 12-10-2016 06:59 AM

Yep...still needing Reiser and Kerr

Cubswin82 02-02-2017 10:04 AM

Still looking for last 2 signed cards. Will pay top dollar.

Republicaninmass 02-02-2017 10:11 AM

Just picked up a signed 50 bowman Kerr...eh ....eh... place holder? :)

Good luck on the search!

I have been keeping my eyes peeled, but it has been awfully tough to find signed cards

Cubswin82 04-01-2017 08:04 AM

Still looking for these final 2 cards. Will pay handsomely for them :)

vthobby 04-01-2017 09:29 AM

Incredible!
 
Congrats,

I will certainly keep my eyes peeled. I love reading about Reiser and you are right......he should be out there!

I myself am only 4 signed cards away from a complete 1961 Fleer Basketball set so I feel your anxiety!!!

#7 Braun
#24 Jordan (not Michael but just as rare!), he died in 1965! Ugh!
#37 Rodgers
#50 Dukes

Keep an eye out for mine please. Maybe we can help each other!

Thanks!

Mike

Thanks Mike! Good luck in your set and I'll definitely keep and eye out for you!

Cubswin82 06-13-2017 11:31 AM

Well, its been 2 months...still needing last 2 cards. Let me know if you have either the signed Reiser or Kerr for sale.

Thanks,
James

Cubswin82 08-15-2017 02:44 PM

Bump, final 2!!

Cubswin82 12-12-2017 07:46 AM

Bump!

Republicaninmass 03-02-2018 07:23 AM

Any luck with these last two?

bbcard1 03-02-2018 12:43 PM

First I admire your efforts. I don't have a 1948, but got a couple of Reisers TTM. He was a willing signer when alive...surprising he has not turned up.

Republicaninmass 03-02-2018 12:49 PM

He passed in 81 and has an sp. You had to have a perfect storm to have the forethought to have one signed. He was pretty popular, and I'm also surprised two haven't turn up. One did, but when the seller found out it was tough to find, or one guy needed it, he put a ridiculous price on it.

Yep, still no luck. The ebay seller doubled his asking price almost once he found out that several wanted it. Ended up going for like $900+...something crazy. I'm just trying to be patient with these last two...I mean, I own all the ones that should be difficult to find...so you'd think these other two would pop up.

Cubswin82 02-03-2019 11:10 AM

Long time, no bump. Down to final 2. Thanks in advance for any help...will pay finders fee for the last 2.

Thanks,
James

Cubswin82 04-05-2019 11:58 AM

Picked up a Pete Reiser. Now down to just needing Buddy Kerr. If anyone knows of one available, please let me know...willing to pay finders fee.

Cubswin82 04-01-2020 09:55 AM

Bump!

Republicaninmass 04-01-2020 09:59 AM

Congrats on the job almost done.

Been 2 years this month since I've added a unique signed 1952 topps.

Always looking for that kerr!

Cubswin82 04-21-2020 09:19 AM

Bump, willing to pay finders fee.

Cubswin82 05-13-2020 11:30 AM

May bump

Cubswin82 12-07-2020 02:45 PM

Down to last 1!!!
 
Needing Buddy Kerr

Cubswin82 01-15-2021 08:09 AM

Bump, will pay finders fee.

Aquarian Sports Cards 01-15-2021 09:08 AM

weird that Kerr is hard considering he died in 2006. Unfortunately I don't have him in the upcoming auction. Have a Reiser, too little too late for me I guess!

Cubswin82 03-30-2021 03:59 PM

Still looking for last card.

Cubswin82 11-29-2022 12:39 PM

Still looking for a Buddy Kerr has one for sale or can point me in the direction of one.

Thanks!
