Rickey Henderson Collectors Thread

That is a beautiful card, and I apologize to everybody for voicing my terrible opinion. Sort of. I'm genuinely sorry Ken if my opinion was the reason that your inquiry was completely ignored.

I would love to own that 1/1, but wouldn't be willing to shell out the cash it would take. With that kind of money you could get a really nice licensed card! Muahahahahaaaaa!

Now that you mention it, I didnt really put the 2 together. Oh well, you cant get them all. Now I would have really like the card Brad posted, too bad I missed it.

Brad, I dont see a 1/1 stamp on that card. Could there be more of them?

It does say "one-of-one" on the left side, and the sell sheet isn't clear, but I'm assuming that each player only has one. I guess it's possible that each individual letter is a "one-of-one," but that's not how I understood it.

Did any of you happen to pick this up? The seller left at least a couple hundred dollars on the table!

Dang it Brad I wanted to surprise everyone when I uploaded some recent purchases. Yeah I came across it Saturday night and thought it was to good to be true with what his cards have been selling for lately. The only hesitation I had was not knowing if each letter is going to be a "one of one" in my opinion that makes it a 1 of 9 but even if that's true I figured I can't go wrong at that price.

Sweet! Sweet! Sweet card.

 

[Leffer]

Yeah, that is a sweet card. But, shouldn't the "N" been a 1 of 2 in "heNdersoN"? The "E" the same thing. How do you know if that's the first or last N? Does the last one hold a premium?

Anyway, nice purchase.

Or are you guys just that insane? LOL

 

[henderson939]

There has been a few crazy Henderson auctions like this recently, with high serial numbers. I guess people like to waste money.

 

[RL24]

What do these crazy people want/need? I want to list it!!

Will one of you go ahead and buy this so they will stop listing it. I'm a big Rickey fan but don't think i need to add this one to my collection.

Really happy I posted on Rickey's FB! He contacted Mitchell & Ness about making a jersey. Excited to get one, unless it's a replica of one I have, and super excited to meet him in November!

[Hendersonfan]

Sorry

 

[Hendersonfan]

How do I get a screen shot to post? It shows before the posting is confirmed, but won't show up now? If I can figure it out, the whole conversation is in the above post.

WoW that is awesome!!

I don't know how to look at that on Facebook, I really tried... and failed. I have 3 options on his page, "Info" which is a snippet from Wiki, "Wikipedia" which is all the info from the Wiki page, and "Friend Activity" which you would think would contain that conversation. The newest one there is from May 5, it was you posting a video of Rickey's 939th. It has two other posts, one from April 10 and one from Dec 25. I don't get it. I know we discussed it before, but I don't remember exactly what my problem is, why I can't see it.

I do suck at FB, pretty much the only time I hop on is to plug my nephews into Bejeweled Blitz so I can get some peace.
