Flea Market find

[rum151man]

well I stumbled upon a guy who said he had gotton some stuff from a guy who used to be the owner of a card shop. I found some different promo and sample items as well as some auto 8x10's most were made out to " collectors choice " which I thought was weird. there was also some uncut sheets of 94 collectors edge football and a few other random football items but these stuck out the most.

heres what I got for $10

1988 star gold edition sets /1500 sets

clemens,puckett,grace,boggs,winfield,davis,greenwell,trammell,seitzer,jeffries,nokes,horn

1991 charter member limited edition set

and the 2 autos I took a gamble on but at the price had to do it.

brett favre has ticket from signing event but no coa

and Gordie Howe no coa made out to collectors choice

Any thought on if the autos look authentic or not??? thanks

I believe the autos are authentic. 100%. Great find! I am going to my local flea market tomorrow I think. It's been a while.

I compared them to some on ebay and they look pretty good to me too

I have always thought that Gordie Howe always signs "Mr Hockey" with his sig.

Wow this post brings back some good memories. I went to that sports card show, among others, at the San Mateo Expo Center. Ahh the good ole days.

You seem to have great luck at that place. Congrats again!

looks like some he does some he doesnt ???

Buy a Staedtler Eraser and you should be able to get the inscription off of the Howe with a limited amount of damage. Typically, no damage to the photo depending on the gloss/finish.

I would assume "Collectors Choice" was the name of the card shop.

Gordie started the "Mr. Hockey" notaion with a ton of UD stuff. He signs both ways. Looks legit to me.

So the Favre was priced at what, $2? I'd say that's worth the gamble...

actually he said $10 for both autos and he pretty much gave me the cards for free
