Post Your Most Awesome Drawn-On Cards!

I know it's not Pre-WWII Vintage... but I've lusted after this card for a long time now. Along with any Mays Rookie card, it's my Holy Grail. I LOVE seeing cards which were obviously owned by kids who had opinions on the cards they got. I'm picturing some disgruntled Red Sox fan opened a pack of '68 Topps, hoping for a Yaz or a Rico Peterocelli and getting "stuck" with a damn Mickey Mantle card. So... he took it out on the card.

Well done! (I WANT THAT CARD!!!!)

What awesome drawn-on cards do you have in your collection?

I have a few, but will start with this one. This Diamond Stars of Melillo, shown with a plain "as issued" example, I think qualifies due to its artistic outlining and added detail.

Here's a 64 Topps Venezuelan card. Dick has a bunch of watches going up his arm, and his bat extends a long way into the back of the card. This came straight from a collector in Venezuela, I love stuff like this.

LOL! Watches! That's awesome! That's EXACTLY the kind of stuff I love to see!

That's pretty cool!! As an artist, I've taken to drawing on my Topps cards... just experimenting now... but maybe I'll post at some point.

Great line work there!
