Scan of my biggest purchase ever.

[MOFNY]

Sometimes I'm way too impulsive...it's purdy in person let me tell ye.

Wow, VERY nice!!

 

[shuedini]

You Sir, have a very clean scanner! That signature looks so clean that it looks like it's on top of the slab. Nice card!

 

[200lbhockeyplayer]

Tough card in that shape.

Nice pick-up.

Mauer is an interesting case. On his way to being one of the best hitting catchers of all time, but without much power, it will be interesting to see what sort of hobby love he gets.

People love the batting average though, and most casual observers are unaware of its overrated status. Plus he's only 25, so he has many years ahead of him. Plus the eye appeal on this card ^^^through the roof.

Well his BA goes with a nice OBP his BB/K ratio was 84/50 last year which is pretty sick, and he's the first AL catcher to win a batting title, never mind the fact he's won 2 already.

And the 2002 Xfractors are a thing of beauty!!

Thats a great pickup! Plus his 02 Chrome auto's are going for very reasonable prices right now.

Scary that that card is going on 7 years old!

[Pete14Rose]

Great card! And seriously, what scanner do you have? That scan is amazingly clear and bright! lol

 

[70Chip]

That puppy is SHARP!!! Very nice pickup.

 

[theplasticman]

Twins fans are drooling.

 

[pghbuccos]

that's a beauty.

 

[Penno]

I'm very fond of that style of xfractor, I wish they wouldn't have changed them for 2002 draft. Great pick up!

 

[muchuckwagon]

Sexy!

The Canoscan strikes again. I prefer it for non-shiny cards though...

 

[metallicalex777]

WOW!!!! The Diamond Kings scan is by far the most vibrant and eye popping scan I have seen in a VERY long time :shock: :mrgreen:
