Rickey Henderson Collectors Thread

[ManOfSteal]

I've never posted on FCB, nor did I even know I was a member until I tried and logged in. Someone suggested I put this card in this thread and see if I get any offers for it. I just unlocked it today and will have it delivered to me before I sell it.

PM me if interested.

Gold embedded 1/1

You'll have no trouble selling that, and will get plenty of offers! I was going to offer, as I still need the gold version, and didn't realize at first that it was the Gold #1/1. That one is definitely out of my price range!

I'm taking offers on this Rickey Henderson 2012 Topps Own The Name 1/1 "H" letter patch card.

I want him to steal a base - illegally.

Hi Guys!

My city is burning, it's on CNN now so I figure some of you guys might hear about it and worry. I don't want you guys to worry at all. The fire is in the mountains and you have to be rich to live there, we're poor and far away from the fire. The Rickey Collection is safe and completely out of harm's way... so don't worry! The house I grew up in, which my dad still owns and rents out, is in danger of being burnt up. That's pretty sad.

It's been a crazy couple days for sure. It started Saturday, and it looked like this:

Then yesterday it was really really smokey, and keeping with the Garden of the Gods theme:

That's what the famous "Kissing Camels" looked like yesterday. Only for a while though, the wind shifted and blew the smoke our way. It made it all the way up to my house, it was terrible. It's 0% contained. It's going to be sad to see the mountains all blackened for the next 40 years or so. Wow. At least we're moving!

 

[rickey939]

Phew, I'm vacationing in Colorado for 10 days in late July - I sure hope the fires/smoke don't ruin our plans!

 

[RL24]

Oh really, where at in Colorado?

 

[rickey939]

Creede, CO

 

[RL24]

wow, what's happening in Creed, CO? I had to look it up, it kind of rings a bell but not really. Will you be driving? Creed is far from me, 4 hrs and 20 minutes or so, but Colorado Springs does lie between Creed and Kansas City...

Haha, Creede is SUPER small. Old mining town, but has been a camping site tradition for my family (multiple generations) for years! Beautiful area and some of the best trout fishing anywhere!

Hey guys. Question for you. Is this card really as rare as the seller claims? I know that I haven't seen one in a long time on Ebay, and I am leaning towards believing him. What do you think?

Nice!! I might have spelled it wrong, but I did it thrice which is totally good luck. :s

Never seen one. I think I've seen 2 FPP and 2 96 Mirror Gold.

I've never seen one before, I don't know how helpful that really is, but wanted to say "Hi Larry!!!"

 

[rickey939]

I don't think I have that promo card, but I'm a looking!

Yeah, it's good to be done working 14 hour days for a while. No time to live, let alone breathe. Ryan, moving? If you need a good home to hold your Rickeys, you know who to call.

I checked my Hendersons, and I have that promo. My wife, who was collecting Will Clark at the same time, does not, and we usually got the same cards when they were in the same set. So I wondered. Thanks to you guys for answering. Appreciate it!

 

[henderson939]

Hi Larry. Long time no post. Anyway, I know that Dave has that promo & maybe Chernisky. Rare, but not $300+ rare. Maybe $100. His prices are extremely high. He wants a lot for the Stand up guys promo too. $75 is the most I ever paid for a Henderson Stand Up Guys and have had 3 over the years.

 

[rickey939]

Random question, but does anybody know if Rickey actually collects any of his own cards?
