Opinion Wanted On Nolan Ryan Situation

Therion · Jan 13, 2010

If you were told that you could have anything signed by Nolan Ryan that you wanted but you had a budget of about $4, what would you get signed?

Keep in mind that I am an Astros fan and I've given a blood oath that this won't show up on eBay or someone else's collection.

I've been told I can get two things signed and I think I'm going to be typical and get the fight photo but I need some help with ideas for item numero dos.

I personally would love a signed OMLB to go along with the Ventura/Ryan fight photo.

Get a crisp $1.00 bill. I love getting 1's signed.

Maybe an oddball early 80's card?

Put a 1970's Astro's home jersey on credit card. Can't get anything for $4. Go all the way and get the Mitchell & Ness. That would be one sweet piece!

How fast do you need something?

80s cards wouldn't be horrible. Or something celebrating his career. And I am /so/ jealous

How about the Upper Deck time elapsed photo card? ('89?) ehh, might be too dark. Go for some sort of "record breaker" card or something in my opinion. They turn out nice

Perfect suggestions.

'86 Topps would look good with a sig on it and he's in an Astros uni. Or how about an SI cover?

I would say this:

and then walk over to 7-11 and get Van Poppel to sign it, too!

If It was me I would pick this 2, I would bet not a lot of people have them signed by nolan. Unlike all that 80's stuff.

Awesome suggestions.

bouwob, what is that card?

I'm liking the Record Breaker idea and the Masterpiece is nice too.

My buddy played a year or two college ball with his son at TCU

I like idea of getting the UD (throw fball) card signed
