Therion's All Time Astros Autograph Collection (980 Reached!! 22 To Go!)

Therion · Apr 2, 2020

One update so far this week.

Tom Lawless

He managed the Astros between Bo Porter and AJ Hinch, never had a card made of him. This upgrades an index card.

Therion · Apr 4, 2020

Two upgrades today!

Jason Jennings

Tony Scott

Luke Gregerson

One of my Twitter followers pointed out that I had a Gregerson on my tradelist and my needed upgrades list. So I have been sitting on this upgrade for at least a year!

Thanks! It does not work for every player, just depends on what pictures I can find. My Photoshop skills are fairly limited!

Therion · Apr 13, 2020

One knocked off the list and one update!

One new addition! These are super rare for me.

Aledmys Diaz

One update from an index card.

Ed Herrmann

Therion · Apr 19, 2020

One addition and three upgrades this week!

First, the new addition.

Jose Urquidy

Three upgrades as well.

Ernie Camacho

This one was huge! It is his only Astros card and he is a super tough auto!

Grady Hatton

Thomas Howard

‘97 Fleer were sharp looking cards. Nice upgrades.

Therion · May 3, 2020

Five upgrades since my last update.

Jim Crawford. Tough auto to find on a card.

Mark Knudson. This is the only Astros picture I could find of him and it is AWFUL lol

Carlos Pena

Claude Raymond. I love autographs on Colt .45s cards.

Joe Slusarski

Awesome Crawford! I have a weird, really unexplainable love for mid 70s Tigers cards and when I moved into being a passionate autograph collector, those became big targets as well. Like any team, they have their tougher guys. Ray Bare, Jim Ray, Jim Crawford, Reggie Sanders & Bill Slayback to name a few.

Therion · May 4, 2020

Jim Ray was also an Astros player. I am fortunate to have THREE Jim Ray autos!

Therion · May 14, 2020

Tons of pickups since my last update, including one new addition! Also several amazing upgrades.

First, the new addition.

Yordan Alvarez

I got this one for $30. I still cannot believe I managed it.

Matt Galante upgrade, but this card is too cool. Unfortunately Cot Deal is no longer with us, so this one will never be completed.

Bill Harris upgrade, but another cool multi-signed card.

Francis Martes

Lee Maye

Hal Smith

Scott Strickland. He charges for his auto and gave me the dying Sharpie. Lame. But it is still an upgrade.

Jeff Tabaka

Ron Villone

Rick Wilkins

Therion · May 15, 2020

Two more upgrades today.

Tom Funk on a Broder card.

Frank Thomas on one of my old customs.

MrMet · May 15, 2020

Bringing the Funk!

The ORIGINAL Frank Thomas, as he often signs!

leoalfo15 · May 15, 2020

it looks pretty good

mrmopar · May 15, 2020

How did Tom Funk even warrant a broder? Never heard of the guy??? Usually those were the bigger names or hot players at the time. I didn't realize they did any common guys. Looks like the typical middle to late 80s designs, like the Cunningham set from around 86-87

Pretty awesome though that a guy like that has an Astros card so you can get it crossed off the list.

Broder actually made two Astros sets that were around 40ish cards each. It makes me wonder if he was based out of Houston.
