My First 1/1

[Joshua.Roundtree]

Mine was a Ron Coomer 1998 Stadium Club Plate....I send it to somebody on these boards whose father collects Ron Coomer. I guess his father coached him in high school or something and he collected Coomer cards, but didn't have a 1/1 because he wasn't really in that many sets and back then 1/1s actually meant something and were hard to get. I definitely didn't mind parting with it, meant much more to him than it did to me.

My first one is a 2007 Exquisite Biography (ies?) Andy LaRoche AU 1/1

I bought it on Topps V2 boards from someone for $30, just to say I owned a 1/1. I still have it. I'm not planning on selling it.

My one and only.

Judging by your username, you have no real need for another.

I have pulled so many 1/1's over the years.. but the one that is special.. My wife who is disabled and used to like to open a box from time to time pulled this from a $50 box.. and I still have it..

Awesome that you share the hobby together!

I think it was last year I took a box of Bowman Chrome home.. (she likes the shiny cards).. and she pulled a redemption for a Brett Lawrie Autographed Orange Refractor.. She was so disapointed that there wasn't an auto in the box and just some crappy white card..

Yet another reason to NOT have redemptions.

Wouldn't mind getting a few more but not for the prices they're going for. I stole this from eBay a while back for $127 shipped. I have a handful (about 80 plus 20 duplicates) of 2007 SPx Iron Man Emerald but we all know now that those are not really 1 of 1's...

My first pulled 1/1 was 2010 Bowman Slade Heathcott Superfractor Auto, sold it for $3500.

I think you have an extra zero in there.

Mine was this 2001 Fleer Showcase Masterpiece 1/1 - Sorry about the crappy scan

Cool thread idea. I do still have mine. I was trying to get my wife to catch the card bug a few years ago, and succeeded with Artifacts blasters. I had just bored her early that very morning with the grand and glorious explanation of what a 1/1 is. I didn't have one to show her so it didn't matter.

Flash forward to opening our blaster. We split the packs. Her very first one, she tells me "Oh I got a 1/1." I just told her it was not a funny way to tease a collector. She insisted that she had one and I gave in. Sure enough, she did. Being Cubs fans, it was the hit of our lifetime.

I got this 1/1 original art from [MENTION=4914]gmarutiak[/MENTION] same image as your 1/1.

My buddies dad was Derek Lee's high school coach and I got it for him to give him for Father's Day.
