This Week in Customs (Yeah I'm pretty excited about this one!)

Ryan I would say that list is probably accurate and the two Pewters I sold him are indeed Beckett checklisted and have been forever. They were both originally sealed the way the one in the auction you posted shows but I wanted them displayed in toploaders so out of that plastic wrap they came. I know my brother has the Rickey Henderson too in his PC

Cool , thanks for posting. Just to clarify the 2 you sold him were both 1987 ones right ? And glad he seems to have the while run then if that's the case.

Although it sucks to see someone like you leave the game , I'm glad he is enjoying the items so much, seems like it went to someone who appreciated it.

Honestly, if you started your own card company and sold packs at a reasonable price, I'd buy from you more than Topps

For me, it isn't just about having the cards - it is about how I have acquired them. I'm glad to have been able to have been able to take on a good portion of Paul's collection, knowing all the blood, sweat and tears he put into it. Who knows? Back in the 80's, had we both lived in the same place, we probably would have been at the same shows digging in the same boxes for the same Canseco cards.

I believe he only has a 1987 Pewter. From when I was looking to complete my Clark run, I could only see pewters of Gooden , Mattingly and McGwire. All different years. No year looked to have multiple players.

**As I type this I Googled and found this, which looks to be accurate.

I just searched and see this, Mouschi, maybe they can make a deal, they have two

Again, this is just from my research when I was filling in Clark and from tonights search which I see this CL. If someone has seen any other Pewters, post em up, I'd like to keep a CL of them.


*** Also on your CL, you have an MVP Pin listed for 1991, that is the one w/ the Score card attached FYI if you have that

****And I see you have the 1989 Tara Plaque listed, I am not sure this exists. Although I have had a 1989 on my Clark wantlist forever , if it exists its rare. I had received info that the difference from 1988 and 1989 was that the back of the 1989 had Santiago listed at Benito not Benny, Rickey not Ricky for Henderson and listed Ron Darling as a Met. I have never seen that back, but I believe if that is the case, nothing else is different about the item. Maybe @tpeichel can shed light on that.

[MENTION=2659]tpeichel[/MENTION] [MENTION=8906]RStadlerASU22[/MENTION] I see the 1991 MVP Pins #38 AND the 1991 Major League Collector Pins #38 in the beckett checklist. Is this a misprint of some sort, or are there in fact 2 different types?
