This is not a political comment nor a comment on the authenticity of the item.
Just a comment asking who would be dopey enough to spend $9500 OBO on this. One full name sig and one first name only sig.
You can buy a couple of decent HOF autogs for that kind of dough but THIS IS A 1/1 BS piece looking for a sucker.

Especially since this is essentially just a custom card made for an individual:

http://leaftradingcards.com/2015-executive-collection/

So you can send in any two autos and ask for a custom card to be made, but they will only allow one of each combination. So you just need to be the first to ask for it. So someone could do a Hillary/Kaine one and that would become 1/1 also at $50 for a dual card. yet that is only for the calendar year. Each year someone can attempt to be the first to get the combination in and bank on it. They don't even do the authenticating. It has to come with the authentication already.

Like it did in 2014, Leaf is also able to create DUAL AUTO Executive Collection Cards. However, only one of each combination of dual signatures will be accepted per year. Therefore each dual-cut signature card automatically becomes a 1-of-1 and will be the only one of its kind produced during that particular calendar year.

And here is the '2016' one:

$100 signature cut from book + $100 signature cut from book + $50 slabbing fee = $9,500 "custom card"

LOL

What a hobby.

That's a Trump signature from a Premier Collectibles bookplate that sold for $30 shipped in the spring. And a first name only Hillary.

Unbelievable.

Gotta tip my cap to the guy who made $2000+ on a $200 investment.

Simple answer. Send him your catalogue.

[Exhibitman]

It is a neat idea for a cut signature. If it makes a ton of money for someone more power to him. And yes the buyer is an idiot.

My catalog is for normal collectors, it does not contain any crazed 1/1. I don't know what that person would do with it .

Funny.

But in reality, I doubt the people buying stuff like this are buyers for actual vintage autographs. Who needs signed wire photos from the 50s when you can have chopped up book signatures in a plastic case?

I know. Take a Feller signed photo and mark it 1/1 under his sig and see if you can get $500 for it.
