I just bought the most expensive card in my collection(SCAN)

mudflap02 · Mar 13, 2012

It feels weird and exciting, like when you climb the rope in gym class. I am really looking forward to getting it in the mail, and it will just about complete a set I am working on, but I had the choice between this card and ~6 hobby boxes of 2012 Heritage. I went for the single. It's not a Heritage card. It will probably be here on Fridayish and I'll post a scan when I have it in hand.

So it got my interest and I looked at Heritage completed sales and my best guess was a Ruth pinstripe jersey from 2010 Heritage #/3??

Your pickups are always fun to see, so I can only imagine what this is.

Knowing you said not from heritage... and knowing it was 6 cases of Heritage... I am thinking a Babe Ruth Cut from an older Playoff/Donruss product... Can't wait to see it.

I think he said 6 boxes not cases... which I believe wouldnt be enough to cover the cost of a Ruth cut haha.

I am just glad my BGS 10 1982 Topps Shooty Babitt is going to a good home.

It pained me to sell it.

Very happy to land this one for my Topps '52 auto set! Miggy was right somehow.

I have a lot of Topps'52 autos that are in worse shape than this one. It isn't perfect but it's about as mint as a card from this set can be - the white borders on the dark cardstock chip really easily, much easier than the 2001 Heritage autos even.

No official print run, but I've seen maybe 5 listed since late 2006, so I would guess a PR of 10 or so. It's the first Pujols auto I've ever owned, and it will probably go in for grading on the next group sub just to get it slabbed. Couldn't be happier with this one!

Awesome!

Beautiful addition, congrats on the pickup.
