That's pretty good. Hamilton's an interesting person. For all the hype back then, and for all the problems he's had, to come back and really back it up I'm surprised they were so low for so long, especially when you look at the prices on current prospects. When he made it back to the majors it was a great story. His home run derby explosion could've signaled the peak of flash-in-the-panness, but it wasn't. He's becoming a legitimate annual MVP candidate on a great team, and all the backstory and drama only fuels it instead of dampens it. Couple that with a hard-to-find, hard-signed rookie card that, oh BTW, is over 12 years old now, and I don't think it will cool off any time soon.

Anyone speculated on the print run of the TTr autos? They never seems scarce, but there couldn't be that many, given how many autos are in the set.
