Mark McGwire Collector's Thread

[Mark McGwire Museum]

I figured that was you bidding on that, I put a bid in on the last second but it went too high. Thats numbered 25/300 too right?

yeah that was the one. Were you the underbidder?

I've been snatching up the Pinnacle plates that have been listed. I think I've added 4-5 more, and another got listed tonight. I go after those pretty hard, I've always been a sucker for the Pinnacle ones as they were the first to do it. I'm surprised that one seller had so many, and I don't recognize any as being on eBay before. I'm hoping he has at least one from 1997. I have 5/8 of the one card, and need just the Cyan to complete the 4 fronts but have never seen it.

I no man, bonzaicollections has some really good McGwire's. I snatched up most of the lower end stuff he had up there, because those damn plates all went for over $200. But congrats on getting those, they are very rare!

And yea I was hoping no one saw that it was #25 /300, but I guess you did haha. And I put a bid on that plate tonight, just for $hits ans giggles, hoping someone would miss it and I could get it cheap. But it sounds like that won't happen ;-)

Has anyone seen this card before:



It is oversized. It is etched wood like the Lumber Yard. It has a blank back.

Check out this one of a kind McGwire

It's 1990 Donruss Test Blue/White.

Most likely they will be going up for auction this next week on eBay & as a collector myself I am in awe of the story behind these.

Here are some links you can forward on & look at.

A few of my McGwire items

Thought I would share a little of my collection, enjoy.




Olympic signed ball, A's signed hat, and game used signed batting glove.



Got this jersey personalized at a celebrity golf tourney in Lake Tahoe.



Here is a photo signed along with a game ticket from his 39th HR his RC to break the record.






First Beckett cover, signed.





Bash Brothers signed poster. Regardless of what history says about these two, I was entertained. This is my favorite part of my collection, reminds me of being a kid.

Man nice stuff guys - love the countdown bane!

I haven't been around much but happened to check ebay when this guy popped up so made sure to grab it. Did the other one surface?

Nice pickup joe.

Just hate the fact that he gave the abbreviated "ballpark" graph for a pack issued auto. Come on Mark

 

[Big Mac McGwire]

Just picked this up.
His first Upper Deck Certified Auto since
2004 USA auto.

This card is in Group B.

Won it with B/O of 250$

Never knew he was in goodwin. Great auto but sort of a goofy pic

Hilarious! I said the exact same thing then thought to myself - I bet you Don will be thinking this too.

Nice pickup on the Goodwin auto. I haven't picked one of those up yet but have noticed every single one is completely off-center. I did manage to grab one of the /13 mini's at least.

The funny thing is that I haven't been snooping around in so long that those '12 leaf buybacks weren't even on my radar until last week. I knocked the /5 off the second I noticed them but noticed there is an /20. Hopefully I didn't miss out on all those already!

 

[bigdcardinals7]

I'm looking to get a McGwire auto at a relatively descent price. I'm a big fan and have a ton of his cards but no auto. Anyone have one they would part with?

Re: Mark McGwire C.ollector's Thread

I have been a fan of his since his Oakland days. When the whole steroid scandal about him came out some years back all the cards shops around me practically were giving his cards away. So I pretty much bought everything I could find. All but the auto

Hey all. Been a long while. Would you mind giving me opinion on authenticity for this one?
