Soapbox for the day: Please quit sending thick relic cards in a top load in a machinable PWE. This is the 3rd 2024 relic I've received that's been creased across the middle in the mail.

For thicker relic cards I pretty much avoid any sellers offering free or $1 shipping. Guaranteed those will come creased in PWEs.

Yeah. I've had plenty of relic cards shipped in the cardboard mailers that qualify for eBay PWE that all arrived in good shape. It's only the sellers who just throw them in a regular envelope that cause an issue.

I decided to try to finish this set. I don't want to be on the wrong side of finishing when some of the living are no more.

It's unfortunate that most are signed on back. It's really a nice looking card on the front, with the chromium finish.

Another Banty Red. These really are great cards. Wish these would have bene around in the early days of the flurry of customs. I bought a lot of crap, cheap, junk customs. Now it's only high quality pieces. The junky stuff has mostly disappeared because of people doing quality work.

No idea.. but it does look like his handwriting
I'd be very interested to know where these bats came from
it could almost be mistaken as an Ed Yost auto. Eddie Murray signs like that somewhat too. The eck definitely looks like it was part of his signature though

Lost power for a couple days during "Bomb Cyclone". Back online last night right before a dinner engagement, so today is first chance to post up since Monday.

On the heels of Jabbar from the same set, I finally looked harder and found a cheaper Barry. Had been watching one for months and the seller never budged a penny on their price. Offering a discount to watchers will often pay off, unless you are tight at your bottom asking price.
