I'm not a big autograph guy, but that's a great collection. Many of those signatures represent some of the most important (and even infamous in some cases) figures in the history of the game. Thanks for sharing.

The Frank Thomas NNOF that is signed. Best ironic example ever.
Awesome collection. |

WOW! Thanks for sharing, Jason!
May I ask how long you've been working on the collection? I noticed the first pictures were posted in 2008, and there are a lot from March 2010. How many did you get in person? I agree with Jeff -- I love the Big Hurt NNOF. ![]() Cheers, Steve |

Thanks for the kind words. I started collecting signed rookies around 2007. I got Sandy Koufax to sign one through the mail and I was hooked. I bought what I could afford until I graduated law school and passed the bar exam in 2009. Fortunately, my criminal defense practice has been very good, and I've been able to buy a lot of very nice cards. My 33 Goudeys are my favorite. Jason |

I often wonder what people do for their money or how they got it when they have epic items or show insane recent purchases, but that is a fairly private question for most so it often remains a mystery. I know there are a few people who have enviable collections who are either famous or are at least public enough to find out information on them such as google. I often imagine what kind of impact a guy like Gates or Allen could have on any hobby they chose if they were interested.
I was recently reading some of the PSA bios and couldn't help but wonder…doctor, lawyers, successful investors, entrepreneurs, internet millionaires, etc.? I do OK, but couldn't even fathom spending so much on the hobby unless I had much, much more in reserve to feel comfortable doing so. Most I have ever dropped on a single collectible item was around $500. When those Brooklyn Dodger UD Master sets came out, I bid on several on ebay, actually scaring myself into thinking I might actually win one a few times. Paying for it had I won was a non-issue, but I think buyers remorse would have kicked in immediately had I won one. Call me small time! ![]() Good for you and awesome collection. The '33 Goudey Ruth #181 is one of my favorite cards of all time and to see a couple nice signed ones together is that much more impressive!! Quote:

Whenever your posts show up in the "Show It Off" section on SCN, I get excited. You have hands down my favorite collection I have ever seen on the internet. What I did not know was that this impressive collection was amassed in less than 10 years. That almost seems incomprehensible. Scott |

Yeah, most on this side wouldn't give it a 2nd thought -- but, that was 1x of the 2-3 cards that stood out to me, too; an incredible collection.

This one will be coming to Goodwin next, I believe. It comes from the same collection as the Speaker. If the price of the Speaker is any indicator.... yipes!!

I think the key to the Speaker is the auto grade 10..This is not the only signed T206 Speaker but it is the only 10 (currently graded)....You might want to get the auto graded on the Cobb or wait a few months when PSA starts putting both the Signature grade and card grade on the same flip.
