To anyone who has/bought a 1993 Pinnacle Dimaggio Auto...

[tedwilliamsfan]

I'm heavily considering buying a 1993 Pinnacle Joe Dimaggio Auto, but I want to know if the autographs are still sharp after 16 years, or if they have faded some over time. Any help would be much appreciated, Jim.

I've bought a tin. I wouldn't say they are SHARP. They are a bit faded but still very strong and you can see the auto clearly.

DEFINITELY buy one. Without a doubt, you will NOT regret it.

The ones i've seen have been very sharp- well worth it.

All posts have been thanked, looks like I'll own a Dimaggio auto soon.

Ive seen several of them over the years and for the most part they are still very strong but as mentioned I wouldnt consider them perfectly sharp.

If you didn't already know, I think D&A still sells them cheap, I think about $150/tin.

There were many available at the National to certain dealers. I guess someone had a whole stash of them via the "Pinnacle warehouse" so don't pay too much for one. I have heard from a secondary source that someone bought several sets at less than $90 apiece...they are all legit.

hey bud I bought one a few weeks back and let me say it was a great choice. The auto looks really good comes with a great set well worth the money. You will not regret it as I know I havent

I think they're a fantastic deal. I own several of them and although they are cheaper than any of the other Dimaggio autos I own, I still like them as much as any of the other standard ones. Clean design, nice look to them. I may even pick some more of these up in the near future.

Hurry up, I am starting to see them all over the place with cut autos in new products.

Pretty soon the only way you will be able to get one is for $400 cut up in a new product ::facepalm::

Are they a little bit bigger than a standard card? Anybody found a good way to store/display them? I want to get one, but am not sure the best way to protect it, while simultaneously showing it off.

I just bought a tin at the chicago sun times for 120. I think the auto looks good. For display I plan on sending it in to be slabbed authentic in one of the group submissions once I see they are operating more efficiently.

Here's mine. Bought just a couple months ago. Still pretty bold!

I thought about "slabbing" it with BGS at the ECN but decided against it at the last minute. I've kept it in the tin for now...
