Pick-ups in Chicago

[rob167]

Here are the three purchases I made at the Chicago show:

Jeff Bagwell 2004 SP Game Used Patch Autograph/2-Patch 08/10

Kirby Puckett 2004 SP Game-Used Patch Autograph/2-Patch 2/5

The above Puckett looks real nice next to this:

Kirby Puckett 2004 SP Game-Used Patch Autograph/2-Patch 1/5

And here is the newest addition to my cut auto collection:

Roberto Clemente 2006 Topps Sterling Cut Autograph/Jersey/Jersey/Jersey/Bat 1/1

blitzerlover-

chisox3706-you didn't miss much. there were quite a few people there, but only about 1/3 the dealers as usual.

scotty21690-thanks! i went with the intention of picking up a ruth cut, but i didn't see any there. quite a few auto'd baseballs and "cuts", but none of the pack-pulled variety.

pghbuccos-thanks!

chashawk-i concur, the show was definitely less than stellar.

predatorkj-not doing the set, i just liked the bagwell.

If you keep having trouble finding a pack pulled Ruth cut, is a custom cut auto in the question?

scotty21690-i will probably hold out for a pack-pulled auto, but i have considered a custom cut and have spoken with mike (200lbhockeyplayer) about making me one.
