Another fake?

When are we going to see a real and a fake with the same number?

Hi Roy,

Pls add #56/89 - UDC 08419 to your spread sheet as a "real one".

Thanks, Rick

Welcome aboard Rick. I have the card number already down as a real one. Thanks for giving me the hologram number.
These cards are getting to be a mess. I am glad that I stated tracking the numbers. I think that Magicpapa is keeping all of the images from Ebay.

this one showed up,

I inquired about buying it and if it had the buyback card. He said it did not, but he hand pulled it. Is this one most likely not authentic? I don't understand how one throws away the buyback card.

I put it on my list as fake. Anyone else have an opinion?

I'd say it's rates up there with Joan Rivers...

 

[Spladow!]

Anyone need a Post Fifth Anniversary French Edition Griffey for their collection?

 

[goldenegg1]

Anyone need any of these cards?

Or These?

2008 SPX Griffey Box Score 1 of 1 Set.

When describing "insane" collectors, my latest more than qualifies me for the title. This one was a real challenge and I have to give a big "shout out" to notjomamasclint who sold me the last card to complete the set. Thanks Clint!
Now if that wasn't enough, does anyone have any of the following Box Score 1 of 1's?
KG-6
KG-17
KG-30
KG-68
KG-78
Also does anyone have any numbers with Home Run dates?
PLMK.
Thanks.

Hi Roy,

On the 2008 SPx Box Score 1 of 1 cards - when UD printed the cards, Jr. had played in 2378 games. So, technically, there are that many of these cards and each card number (1-100) can have different games and stats.

On those Commemorative Jumbo AUTOs - the cards came 1 to a pack. I bought this one offline and the seller told me he got it on HSN. I've got a note in to UD trying to find out if the AUTOs were in the packs or were they a redemption card. Interestingly, when I called UDA to verify the hologram, they told me it was dated 1998!! So maybe Jr. signed the cards in '98 and they were issued in 1999. Dates on the cards and the packs are all 1999.

Packs looked like this

Hope that helps.... Rick

 

[Roy Birchler]

Thanks Rick.

It makes sense that the auto is a HSN card. They probably sold the packs for so much each and 50 lucky people got autos.

Was trying to check on the numbering of this card, 1/1. Cannot find it on Beckett or the UD site. This combimation of players is not listed at all. Anyone have any info?

EDIT: nevermind it is from 2008 Exquisite Rookie Signatures Wrapper Redemption

I Have 13 and 30. So there are multiple cards numbers that are 1 of 1 with different stats?
