Started a new player collection!

[rebelpawn]

I've been a fan of how Brooks Robinson played for a long time but I've finally started a small collection of him.
I think he's got one of the wost autographs in history but for some reason I kinda like it.
Here's what I have so far.

Thanks to the board members who have helped me out with my collection so far!

Sweet, your off to a good start. You going for all his cards or just auto's and G/U?

I've always liked Brooks, even though I've never seen him play. I recommend reading his autobiography, Third Base Is My Home. I enjoyed reading it and it gives good insight into him as a ballplayer and his life outside baseball.

I've always loved his patch cards due to the fancy logo on his jersey (like the jersey he's wearing on the Super Teams auto card). You'll be jealous of the 2005 Sweet Spot Classic and 2004 Ultimate Collection patches that I have of him.

Great Start!

his RC is a female dog due to being a hi number!

Great player to choose. That Trademark Threads photo is great!

Brooks was one hell of a third baseman. His stuff seems underrated. I would like to get a nice auto of him to add to my PC. Great job on the PC!

Very nice start, has his auto always looked the same way, obviously with age it gets a little worse but is there a huge difference from his early autos to his more recent ones?

Here a few of my favorites, I love when Chavez is paired w/ Brooks

Thanks guys! I'm pretty happy with the collection so far.
I definitely agree with blanning71, he is underrated....
Right now I'm just concentrating on autos, patches, and vintage. I think my next pickup will be a nice RC.
I love the Brooks/ Chavez duals, those are sweet cards.

Cool stuff! I got his auto at a legends game a few years ago, he signed a ton.
