Ali... Rose... Who should be next for Leaf?

[Gwynn545]

I'd like a gone before their time kind of thing, athletes and celebs who died early or a gangsters- or notorious personalites- through the years(because I'm loving Boardwalk Empire!). Everyone here agrees on a Musicians Set though, from an earlier thread somewhere.

I would be FCB's first Chris Farley Supercollector!!

No idea about contracts and who has what and this is far fetched anyway but I'll make it a two player issue and call it "Summer of '41" centered around Ted Williams and Joe DiMaggio.

EDIT: Just read through the whole thread and the ***** League set would be amazing and is long overdue.

A political product would be interesting, but I am sure Leaf would get heavily flamed for it.

They could get autographed cards of politicians with a memorable moron quote inscribed on it.

Someone please make a Triple Threads multi-color patch type card of Dan Quayle with the word: POTATOE :lol: :lol:

On-card autos would be tough

What about not just a single player, but a set of players? I do like the idea of single players like the Rose, and would love a Rickey set. But it might attract a more broad audience with more players.

3000 Hit Club
No-Hitters or Perfect Games
500 Homers

I liked both ali and rose but I think the one player set should be over.

Would love to see themes in upcoming releases......cy young winners, batting champs, anything really. Just eight or ten players in a similar set/release.

Leaf base cards are great (imo)

A 500 HR Club set would be great, if it weren't for UD's prior A Piece of History release.

Who said anything about needing on card autos?

The justification of the price for the Ali and Rose boxes is that there is at least 1 auto per box.

You could not do this with Williams and Dimaggio.

I'd love to see a Kenny Powers set.

 

[notjomommasclint]

mike tyson
hulk hogan
josh gibson

A set of 'MiLB HOFers' that never played/didn't play more than a year in the MLB.

 

[gracecollector]

A ***** League set would get me to buy Leaf again (haven't since 2005).

I'd love a Yogi Berra set like this before he's gone.

Pele could be big.
Lance Armstrong.

More baseball! There are so many players out there with interesting histories that never got any real hobby love (though cards or certified autographs). Maybe build them around all the cities with major franchises or something. I have a feeling no matter what leaf does next it will be good.

Also: Star Trek. We can never have enough Star Trek.

Could you imagine the Henderson quote cards.

"If they want to pay me like Gallego, I'll play like Gallego" or "I feel my physical condition is in good physical condiction"

Tons of great third person quotes as well.
