I have decided that since I have finished the ultimate rainbow (and spent about 5 times more than I have ever spent on a card) I need to take some time to recoup.

For the not so low price of $2050 (it pains me to think about that), I got this awesome card. This (as far as I am concerned) is the rarest ryan card on earth. This is only the 2nd one I have ever seen on ebay.

Nice pick up...I can understand how spending that much on a card would make you want to take a break though

very nice. I know a little about the variations but by far that one is the hardest great pickup. Btw i love hof and cards like that unlike prospects it wont lose value lol. Better investment than any CD or savings you can get.

Very nice! Too bad you couldn't get one in nicer condition.

The highest condition one is a psa 5, they come on like paper stock and were usually glued to binders. This is one of those cards that really dont matter since they come up so un often.

Im not sure non slabbed versions exist. Anyone who knows anything about ryan rookies would get it slabbed immediately. That said, I likely wouldn't have bid on it if it was not slabbed. I'm not sure anyone fakes them but for the cost, it wouldn't be worthwhile.

What is the difference between the different versions?


The milton bradly has a white line on the side and is more yellow on the back.

The others have slightly different back color veriations and the trade marks is different

Man, that is truly a thing a beauty! Congrats on an awesome pickup. A possible once in a lifetime pickup. I wouldn't worry about the price, I know it's a lot, but it's something you'd have to think would probably not go down in value.
