July pickups

[HOF Auto Rookies]

Alright, here's my Foxx in the slab, next post will be my insane purchase

[HOF Auto Rookies]

Alright folks, the moment a lot of you have been waiting for and asking what my huge purchase was going to be. I kept it quiet to ensure that I got it, and boy did I ever get it. This was a once in a lifetime purchase for me, a Lou Gehrig autographed 1933 DeLong rookie card (yes I know all the banter for rookies, but if the 33 Goudey can be a rookie, why can't this. All that matters is I consider it one).

Never thought I would own a Gehrig signed card. He had a five year window to sign this, I consider this to be one of the rarest and most difficult signed cards of a HOF'er to obtain based on how difficult it would be to get him to sign this before his disease took his toll in '39 when he stopped signing.

I know autograph is faint, card is not in the best shape, but I don't give a damn, it's a Lou Gehrig autographed rookie card!!!

I hope you enjoy this as much as I do, so enjoy!

Matt that card is awesome, I love that M116 set, they seem to be very high grade.

Huge thanks to Pete for this one and a great start to my D322 journey! The Zeenut was also courtesy of Pete.

Nice eye appeal, little bit of paper loss on the back on the edge destroyed the grade. Still, you buy the card not the holder

Nice card. Not an easy card to find in decent shape, even without a signature. Congrats!

happy with my night...and able to make it through a full day of work. It helps when you have a 4 month old that already keeps you up
