Got my first 1/1 today (for you hof people)

[bear0555]

I've never picked up 1/1s in the past because they all feel so artificial. I've always wondered what my first one would be and I knew eventually one would arrive at my home. Threw down a bid and won the following. Now if I can only figure out where the swatch comes from!

probably part of the jersey tag, maybe he wore a 44 or a 46?

That's a great-looking card and I almost decided to bid on it. That set used to be really popular, and I figured a 1/1 of a Yankee would go for more. Plus, my guess is that the number is part of a size on a laundry tag, which really makes it unique.

Rizzuto wore #10.

I collect 2 players from this set, and this just seems a little weird to me.

How could he make that much profit, that quick? And it sold for more than the "prime" version which you bought.

I did think the swatch is from a tag though I've never seen one like it. The swatch does look like the size number was sliced in half.

A buddy of mine asked why I didn't pick up the regular 1/1 also. I just couldn't justify spending additional money on a similar card. Pretty quick flip for that seller.
