Does FCB Burn to the Ground if this card is made?

[mouschi]

Since we know the card makers keep a keen eye on internet trends, I wondered to myself ... what if they targeted FCB and made the ultimate patch card that would make 8 of us sweat bullets? Here it is:

No disrespect to the guys who go hard after McGwire, Bonds, Bagwell, Biggio, Thomas or anyone else ... I *only* had room for 8!

I decided to go a step further and make another one that would appeal to people beyond FCB, and came up with the following:

Each side features one superstar of today, one superstar of yesterday, one legend and one high roller player.

On an open market, how much do these go for?

Freakin awesome, if it had Bernie in it would go for more

 

[K34PuckettAddict]

Great work as always, those look awesome!

But, they would look even better with Puckett in them... =)

With the # of hardcore PC guys we have on here, I don't think I'd satisfy everyone if I made a 20x patch ... however ... tempting! *scratches chin* Puckett and Bernie both TOTALLY deserve to be on here!

Be crazier if they were serial-numbered to 4.

Somebody please fix the app that Ryan is using! Here is a link to my blog: http://tanmanbaseballfan.com/2016/05/internet-burn-card-made.html - though the FCB branded card does not show there!

Looks like Galaraga and Randy Johnson have the same patch, so obviously these are fake...
Seriously, though, no Gwynn?
No, now I am being serious... How much they go for depends greatly on which company made it! An Upper Deck card like you have above? or a Topps card like this? It would be awesome to watch go at auction. If Leaf, or Hits Memorabilia, or even Panini made it, it would probably not have the highest fanfare.
Give it to Upper Deck, have them make 8 copies (1/8. 2/8, 3/8...)
Then have 8 1/1's each signed by only one of the athletes, a la 1997 SPX Force

Sweet cards, Tanner, great idea!

I also can't see them, wonder if it's a mobile vs desktop thing? I'm on mobile and can't see them

Thanks man! I remember there being an SPX force card w/Canseco on it and it was signed by Sheffield. I passed it up because no JC auto, but given the chance again I may scoop it up

I think you are onto something. I'm not doing anything odd. Just doing the img tags and inputting the link to the image!

 

[RStadlerASU22]

Nice, I checked out the link. You put too nice of patch into that Randy though so I'm screaming that isn't fair

That pic of Andres Galarraga looks like a very thin Bartolo Colon.

 

[Fandruw25]

Great stuff! I think you nailed it with set name.

 

[tramers]

No Matt Capps ?????????

 

[16christensen16]

You should make it dual sided with 8 patches on each side. It looks very cool!

 

[Pinbreaker]

Are you working for Topps?

Is this their next offering for those damn digital cards that people are selling on EBAY?

 

[mlbsalltimegreats]

No, the player selection would keep me away!

I bet you a twins card that Had twins logo patches of joe Mauer ,Killebrew, Rod Carew, Paul Molitor, Blyleven, Winfield, Oliva and Puckett, would blow those away..

Can see it fine via the tapatalk app.

Great Idea for a nice booklet and it looks good too!

If I'm going retro though, I'm using the old FCB logo:



WTH: I'll even make a 90's ish insert type Canseco.



We'll add Dawson for good measure:



Cant forget my guy or these other two hacks!
