Mark McGwire Collector's Thread

[Big Mac McGwire]

2 new pickups. Havnt picked up anything since spring training but i picked 2 things i been wanting to get out of the way

First a signed Steiner NL ball. I have a nl ball that is signed in black with the 98 inscription but i wanted one signed in blue

2nd item is the sportkings signed jersey card. The only mac card to date with a signed jersey on the card. Print run of 9. Cant let these go unnoticed anymore

Thank you for not doing so my friend.

What are the other variations of the card ?
Is there one signed with him in a cardinal uni? Or is the one i got the only variation?

I almost ran that sportkings card up to 350 on you, glad I decided not to!

There is a gold 1/1 parallel of your card, but none with him in a cardinal uniform.

This one isn't signed, but I thought it was kind of cool in a weird way. If you really stretch your thinking, you could almost make yourself believe Big Mac is wearing those Cardinal wings.

I don't think I'm going to get my ttm back I sent to spring training, not getting the same turnaround other folks are having. Maybe it got lost, never made it, or he just didn't like my letter Holding out hope but I'm afraid I may be out of luck. Anyways, check out this awesome success someone received:

Send him a ball or picture during the season. I saw a bunch of successes at the end of last season. He personalizes all ball and photos. Send it to him a few days before the first home series of the start of the season.

Id send a ball but i got 2 of them and they got a personal touch. :lol:

when your at the post office have the clerk weigh the return box with the ball inside it. Pay for paid label on it that is at least 3 dollars more then what it costs to be safe.
Its the best 20$ gamble you will ever take. REMEMBER , he is more likely to open a big package on his desk then 1 of a hundred small envelopes

I just want to make it clear that whenever i post my mac stuff i am not trying to blow smoke up my arce or any kind of that. None of my friends collect stuff and no one in the united states that i know on a personal level as i consider all of us mac guys on here a tight bunch of lads. I hope you guys get a thrill out of looking at it as i did aquiring all this stuff in the frenzied 20+ years i have been building this ongoing "life" filled scrapbook. This is my favorite thread on here and i love checking out all the cards i will never own. But i would be lying if i did not say i enjoy comments from shanks and others that are drool inspired

Send a ball or picture. You will have a higher success rate

Not as exciting as some lucky guys got their TTM mac auto's,

But this Bad Boy Came intoday.

Big thanks to Joe for not making me pay out the *****. Thanks Joe This picture does not do it justice. I was iffy about the sportkings. i still am missing all the others. But this thing in hand is sweet.

I love that card, and you're right, it looks even better in-hand.
