Back in the day on the BMB I was really excited about picking my first cut autograph, SP Enos Slaughter. After showing it off with much pride I was quickly flamed for buying a cut would I could have bought and on-card or some other Slaughter Auto.

Fast forward to FCB, after seeing all of Musial Collectors Custom orders through Mike (200lbhockeyplayer) I decided to place an order. I asked him to keep as much of the full picture as possible since it is a image from Cardinal history. I was speechless upon seeing the proof, you be the judge.

Thanks Mike!

200LB should work for UD and design legendary cuts. You are a beast when it comes to cut auto's.

To be fair, George is showing off the Photoshop mock-up. Here is a scan of the final card.

Maine of course......
Great card!! Not sure as a Sox fan I like "the Mad Dash" reference, though clearly '46 was before my time. ;)

Was that picture really Enos sliding into home on the "Pesky held the ball" or "Mad Dash" play that won the Cards the Series?

Yes, it's such a classic baseball moment and photo.

Of course, for Red Sox fans it was memorable in a terrible way.

Even better!!
AGREED!!! That looks amazing Mike!

Seeing that card actually makes me giddy, it looks so nice with the large window and incorporating the sliding photo.

I said it, I'M GIDDY

Edit: for some reason it reminds me of an old black and white tv with the large rounded screen.... I love it!
