Congrats, that is a gem. That’s literally the first card I’d target if I was looking for a Pippen auto.Duncancollector wrote: ↑Mon Jan 13, 2025 8:46 am Here is my latest pick-up. Received it today. I love this card. Finally landed a Pippen on card auto, which I like and which is rare. I am so happy to add this beauty to my autograph collection.

Right, I think this might be one of the few all-blue ink exceptions but I wasn’t sure.Duncancollector wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2025 2:08 pm @darz90scardz I don't know, if there is a black version as well. However, I like blue ink much more, and blue is the better and rarer autographics set that year in general.
Congrats on the pickup! Absolutely a classic card from a truly significant set. On the topic of the blue autos, remember when Panini tried to change things up by doing almost entirely black autos in 16-17? Appreciate the sentiment of changing things up, but that was not the way to do it.Duncancollector wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2025 2:08 pm @darz90scardz thank you. Yes, it is a classic card and I agree with you. This has been my first choice if I buy a Pippen auto.

@AbraCalabro I got this card from IG member chronologycollector and he has owned this card for over 10 years. Yes, there are forgeries of the skybox autpgraphics out there , That is really sad.
Amazing pickups! That Wemby White Sparkle is HUGE.Duncancollector wrote: ↑Mon Jan 13, 2025 8:46 am Here is my latest pick-up. Received it today. I love this card. Finally landed a Pippen on card auto, which I like and which is rare. I am so happy to add this beauty to my autograph collection.
Nice, it's pretty cool that Wemby has 2012 prizm silver. Such an iconic design and set, that's a really fun addition to the collection. I'm sure it's also a much more attractive card than his true RC prizm silver too haha
It's even bigger and better on the computer. It's tough to beat old-timer patches.
Beautiful die-cut heavy mailday! Great photos on the Penny and Pippen (though the theme is lost on me). I like the shine on the Penny and MJ, with the Penny being my favorite of the bunch, I think. The MJ is cool with the accolades in foil on the front. Is that an insert? I'm not familiar with UD3 at all.
quality patch with holofoil, win/win in any hobbyists book
sick photo, the gold parallels are dope
Thanks dude, I appreciate the compliment lol. It's crazy how so many early 2000s stuff had some mind blowing patches in them, although with the Celtics you're only getting two colors, so I'm glad to have this two color monster lol.SacKingsCards wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2025 10:19 am Great pierce patch! Hard to tell whether it is legit or one of your mockups haha I always get shaded out by those early 00s patches because they're so high numbered relative to today's prime patches
Beautiful spectrum as well, didn't even know McDyess was on the Suns...oops. And #34 as well. My first reaction was "Wow, Charles Barkley looks different in this photo."
Nice old school patch auto!

wow, I don't think I've seen those Topps cards before. That looks like it's on card too? Great looking card, super clean.
My two additions from yesterday. Very happy to have added the KMart after a multi-year search
Dude, love your website. I wish there were more like it.HoopsHobby wrote: ↑Wed Jan 29, 2025 5:59 am Two sweet cards,SacKingsCards. Kevin Martin has a nice signature! These photo shoot autographs look great and are tough to track down!!
Thank you, I agree about KMart's signature, and it has remained nice though it has gotten shorter over the years. I still haven't seen one of these photoshoots with a hologram. I too love your website and look forward to checking it out over the next few days or week!HoopsHobby wrote: ↑Wed Jan 29, 2025 5:59 am Two sweet cards,SacKingsCards.

Yes, on card. They were signed at a Topps photoshoot for rookies. Not sure whether it was the same or different from the NBA rookie shoot.AbraCalabro wrote: ↑Wed Jan 29, 2025 12:41 pm

Absolutely beautiful set and card. I haven't kept up with recent Obsidian, but I did like the first few years of it for sure. This first year has such a clean design and isn't too busy.
Nice. That's one CRISP card dude, on card and a clean auto just takes it to another level.SacKingsCards wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2025 5:55 pm

that is one juicy patch dudevintagepacers wrote: ↑Mon Feb 10, 2025 8:59 am Been out sick with the flu for the past week so I haven't shared any of my recent mail. Back in my office today feeling slightly better.
I used to be hesitant to go after these unlicensed products but Kyle @Deadshot convinced me over the last year or so that they're a great option for some badass relics for a fraction of the cost of licensed cards. I won this for around $45. If it were a licensed Panini card it would've cost me 10x that.
