Instead of buying a case of BC Draft, I bought this...

I usually buy a case or two of Bowman Draft. The checklist seemed fairly week to me this year. So, I instead bought something a little different. I LOVE the look/personality of these cards. In my opinion, the best looking Legendary Cuts autograph set there is, with the combination of the pic and a quote from the player...

Excellent choice, beautiful card. Congrats!!!

Huh. I pride myself on knowing prospects' names and I've never heard of this guy. When was he drafted?

He was supposed to be a part of 1926 Bowman Draft Autograph set, but they were not able to get him to sign as he wanted a nickel per autograph...

Good to see Topps pays double that now!

Awesome card! Way better than prospects any day.

Yeah I think you made a good choice. When UD gets the cuts right, they really look terrific!

Great decision. Beautiful card!!

That was my second favorite year of leg cuts- always a wiser choice to buy a card you want than to buy a case.

Definitely can't go wrong with a Satchel Paige cut, great choice!

I wrote a nice piece about Satchel the other day, with some links to a radio interview with Larry Tye who just wrote a very complete bio on Satchel, and a clip from What's My Line.

Satchel is an icon and that auto is a better look than a bunch of prospects.

Great choice. I have been looking for a cheaper index card or something to make a custom. Paige is at the top of my list. Great buy.
