My NEW FAVORITE CARD

hofautos · Dec 7, 2010

My NEW FAVORITE CARD, at least for the time being....

This just arrived. I am sorry I ever doubted the seller. I am certain I will never upgrade it again, and actually will take it off my search after 10 years of upgrading it no less than 10 times. Scan of back shows just as nicely as front for whomever asked before ( viewtopic.php?f=2&t=112344 )

Anyway, without any further ado...

I bring you the nicest Jackie Robinson anyone will ever lay there eyes on with a $1000 budget! A 10 year effort! Ten years of looking at every graded Jackie ever to land on ebay!

I am a rookie card guy too, but I love this card bc it has the Colombian flag on it. Is the Renteria you have signed?

No, but edgar's rookie with an auto is on my search!
I actually won one, but then the seller said he didn't have it...ack!
I know what you mean with your pride in your heritage! Congrats.

Really, I don't know much about Edgar, I just assumed that was why he liked that card.

Any i can find, but if I had my choice, probably the card in the bottom left of your sig!

THis is the one that I won, but the seller declined to sell, saying he lost it, or sold it..i forget what he said...all i know is he backed out.

Do you have one ungraded?

chromerookies · Dec 7, 2010

isn't that Renteria signed on the Slab not the card?

chromerookies · Dec 7, 2010

no I was talking about elmalo, Renteria is 100% Colombian, elmalo isn't

Wow, i just looked again...guess I am glad he didn't ship it...that would have been a drag (lol)!

Absolutely gorgeous! A nice Jackie card is on my list when I move into post-war vintage, although I won't be able to afford as nice a one as that or even that card in any condition :shock: :lol:

thanks...never say never....there was a time not that long ago i couldn't pay my mortgage...

There are very few vintage cards I really want...these are the ones I wanted:
T206 Cobb, cy young, walter Johnson
1933 Ruth
1934 Gehrig (year of triple crown)
1948-49 Leaf Jackie, Ted Williams, Stan Musial
1952 Willie Mays
1954 Hank Aaron
1956 mantle
1957 Frank Robinson
1964 Rose
1966 Morgan
1969 Bench
1974 Schmidt

Basically the players that were considered the best all time of their position or holder of MAJOR records.
If I am missing anyone from my list let me know.
