It is numbered /26. Would be a nice card but it has faded badly over the years. You can barely make out his signature on it! I have no use for it so if anyone has a home for it, please LMK. Thanks.

I think Wade signs TTM for $10
Have him sign it in Bic ballpoint, maybe that fake leather will hold that ink?

My Dave Winfield from the same year is almost gone. I'd hate to be the people that had a Junior or a Jeter from that year.

Actually if you tilt your computer screen upwards, you can see the auto

Gotta be real careful with those sweet spots! Only cards I have from the plastic ball hide set is hunter pence and mainly because the kind of pen/marker used. I'm pretty confident it won't fade. Most of the older sweet spot autos seem to hold well due to the leathery hide of the ball. Anything from 2007, I wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole and I consider myself lucky with what I do have.

Bill Menard I believe is taking it. Not looking for anything other than it pains me to look at so it has to go!

I would cover up the card with just the auto showing and expose to sunlight. Once it totally fades away I'd send to to Boggs TTM.

I think I'm going to just replace the auto ball piece with a real baseball auto. I wil get one and cut it out and replace the faded one. Though the other idea is a good one too.

Boggs came in today... Brent, thanks a ton for the card. I can see why it pained you to look at it! I will think about what to do with it. It looks harder to get the piece out than I thought without damaging the card around it. As much as I thin a real cut auto off a ball would look spectacular, I may just try to accelerate the fading and send it to him TTM and resigned.
