My HUGE 161 cards HOF GU buyout

BBCgalaxee · Sep 20, 2011

It took a little over a week of negotiating, but I purchased the deal today from a customer on a 161 card collection of nearly ONLY HOF game used cards. Shown below are some of the most interesting cards from this collection.

As someone who has bought and sold a TON of GU cards over the last decade, Ive noticed cards of HOF players have really dried up, even large lots of reg current players have become harder to find.

All the Cal's in the lot (BOTTOM LEFT IS /75)

Love the Wilhelm patch

Where oh where have these type of cards gone?

***** League game used glove!

All the Nolan's including his minor league jersey

The ROYALS...ROYALS....Killebrew is a short print

SEVEN Ichiro rookies

Love them jumbo vintage jerseys

Didnt notice at first but its a BATTING GLOVE /25

Nice! I sent a message to gracecollector, he might need those Leatherbound cards you got~!

Dual Musial /10, Banks /15, Shcmidt Glove

Never knew they made gold versions

I would really like to work something out for the Wilhelms.

Is the Doerr available? What's it numbered to?

Thanks for thinking of me darrend505.

Nice buy BBCgalaxee! Some real winners in there. That Leon Day card sold for $200 on eBay today. I have a guy who wanted to buy mine, can send you his email if you want. I could use the Jim Kaat for the Leather Bound set I'm putting together. Sending you a PM.

Wow! Nice lot right there, ton of nice HOFers for sure. Love the Day card as well as the Wilhelm patch. On the Ryan Centennial, I'm pretty sure that card features a Rangers jersey and not a minor league jersey swatch. Could be wrong, though. Check the back of the card, might shed some light.

Gwynn545 · Sep 20, 2011

Any more Gwynn's? Couple of them in there, lmk if available! Nice Lot overall!!

TBTwinsFan · Sep 20, 2011

I love the Archives cards. I miss the chrome technology on game used cards.

BBCgalaxee · Sep 20, 2011

Thanks all, one of the reasons I posted them (besides being pretty psyched) was because I knew many of you could either use some or could shed some info on a few.

I just got them, will be sorting them out. Its going to take me a day or two to sort everything out but I will respond to everyones pms.

I assumed the Day was "pricey" (books $150) but havent gotten around to checking ebay (amazed it sold for 200).

This will stock my store pretty nicely for a while but lmk what you guys might be interested in and I wont put them out or on ebay.

There were no Rice or Parker (there is a 1/1 Parker Donruss Team Heros card on comc though) cards, sorry. I guess Im wrong about the Centenial GU cards, I thought it was stated back then that they were milg GU. Back reads "Professional game"

Maddux /24, maddux (Cuts) 1/50, stargell /50, yaz /50, dual sox /99, fisk piece of Green Monster,

yount 1/25, gibson /25, wills /41, thats the gwynn bat/hat/pants top left

Was listed at $399 (that made me chuckle), but sold for a $200 BO. It's the only GU card of this HOFer, so a hot card.

minor leagues games are professional?

minor leagues games are professional?

when associated with a mlb team, yes.

Im thinking that 2005 Classic Clippings Cut of History Single Jersey Blue Nolan Ryan is the most mass produced GU card ever

I forgot how beautiful those Topps Archives game used cards are. When I used to buy large GU lots and resell them they were some of my favorites.

You can add my name to the list interested in purchasing the Wilhelm FOTG patch.

jszczech · Sep 21, 2011

If there were any Kirby Puckett's in the lot I may be interested in them.
