Got these in today's mail, and I'm so thrilled to add them to the G-Man collection. I never think I'll find these oddball cards autographed, but when you come across them, it sure is sweet to add them to the collection. My scanner doesn't do them justice. They look brilliant in hand.

Puts me at 31 baseball cards autographed in Gary's old style signature. Thanks for indulging me while I get giddy!

Very cool, Greg!

I like how he sign's his 'G.' Has his sig ben consistent?

He signed this way until late 1992. I have a 1993 Topps (back then, released by Thanksgiving!) signed with "Circle G" which is probably as recent as I'll ever find. After a couple of seasons in California he changed his sig to "Cursive Gs", like seen on newer stuff like All-Time Fan Favorites. The old style are the only autos I look for for, unless there's a new officially issued one from a card company.

No your scanner did an excellent job. Those look amazing!! Very clear. I wouldn't think black sharpie would show up well but it does on those cards. Nice pickups!!

Thanks everyone. When I look at the scanned image, they look like they are printed on to me. Better quality that the ones that Topps does! The Fleer is really nice in person. It's jumped up the list to be one of my favorites.
