Kevin,
Congratulations! Awesome pull.
What company makes these? Did you buy just one pack? A box?

Very nice hit. That paid for the trip and a few more also. Hard to tell how the card looks from the picture. Looks nice though.

How much is a 'pack'?

The company is "historic autographs"

1card per box. The cost at the beginning of the show was 175.

Bought my box today for 160. A little much for a gamble but it worked out real well lol.

kevin holy crap! great Job!
I was thinking about buy ing one as well. I think its worth the gamble. The worse that happens is you over pay for a nice slabbed autograph of a common. They are pretty darn cool. Great work! Hopefully others will post their successes

They are still out there.

So far no one has the Cobb. The guy at the booth said a Cobb is definitely at the show somewhere. Happy hunting.

According to the info I read there are at least TWO of every hofer so there's double your chances

the card is a 3 i think. the crease is way less worse than it actually looks. it really depends. it is through the face but it is a very fine wrinkle in the cardboard. i have seen 4s with a worse wrinkle but not through the face like that. on a bad day it could be a 2.

these are really neat. Im anxious to see what the custom art looks like. I imagine theres quite a good chance of getting a chester hoff as they had to get quite a few autographs for this. On one hand it would suck paying $160 for a chester hoff but on the other they are very presentable
