Auto Kaline Run

Picked these up the other day. Taking them to Cleveland in a couple of weeks to have authenticated and get the auto’s graded.

Awesome stuff...thanks for sharing. I'm kinda working on an SGC Killebrew base card auto run...have a few nice cards but not intense about it. Seeing these gives me an itch...lol. I too wasn't into autos but they are sure nice to own.

Do you think guys like Kaline and Brooks own any of their own cards? They get to see every nook and cranny card out there as they get requests, I would think human nature would be to collect my own cards. I know I certainly would!! haha...

Again...thanks for sharing!

I don’t think Brooks collects anything. He pretty much gives/gave his playing day items away. Many years ago when they wanted to get a pic of Brooks with his gold gloves they had to borrow other players GG awards so they could do the photo; he’d given most of them away. Rawlings ultimately had 16 more made and gave them to Brooks and a couple years ago they went in the Heritage auction and he donated tbe proceeds to charity.

Mike have you showed Kaline your auto run of his cards?

Lou, I have not tried to show him yet. I think I may send him a couple of pictures at some point.287FEA52-A8FD-4736-9FEE-C3D1F08037DE.jpg
