HUGE Win for my DK Recollection auto collection!

[A_Pharis]

Sooooo happy about this. After losing out on a Canseco #'d to 12 I was worried I wouldn't win this. Set my snipe at $105 and went to spend the weekend with my girlfriend. Got back tonight to find out I won it for $53 DLVD!

#'d to 12 and those 12 are the only ones he has in the set.
I now actually have a complete checklist (by player) of DK recollection autos ranging from 82 - 91. I would post it, but I am afraid it may stir up more competition.

Awesome pickup, especially with that price! I always love seeing your DK posts, these cards look fantastic.

Congrats again.

Thankfully -- Thomas has one... but it's from 92. I opted to keep those out of the collection.

Very nice...I've been thinking about starting the 2001 Rookie Reprint Auto set. Donruss and UD make some awesome auto sets.

Sweet card! I love the Recollection auto's. I am still waiting for the day an '85 Donruss Eric Davis shows up!

To have one of each player... not many, but it is getting only more difficult.
And a correction.. Orel actually has a 1/1 platinum version, as well... so he has 13 cards in the total set. Still very limited, though. A couple I will probably NEVER see:

• Diamond Kings Recollection Autographs #14 Andres Galarraga 89 DK/ 10
• Diamond Kings Recollection Autographs #29 Eddie Murray 84 DK/ 8
• Diamond Kings Recollection Autographs #73 Don Sutton 85 DK/ 2
• Donruss Timelines Recollection Autographs #354 Alvin Davis 85 DK/ 1
• Donruss Timelines Recollection Autographs #484 George Foster 83 DK/ 10
• Donruss Timelines Recollection Autographs #1505 Matt Williams 91 DK/ 10

Those each are the ONLY ones those players have in the set. Alvin Davis? Yeah... He has ONE in the entire DK recollection set.

I do have some of the toughies already, though.

• Donruss Timelines Recollection Autographs #1041 Al Oliver 84 DK/ 29
• Donruss Timelines Recollection Autographs #131 Vida Blue 82 DK/ 16
• Diamond Kings Recollection Autographs #87 Tony Pena 85 DK/ 7




Some of these things are VERY limited, but I love them too much to not try. I just think back on how many I saw when I first started and didn't have the funds... Matt Williams... Sandberg... Ugh.
