    "Stan the Man"

    I've always loved the card, so I decided to recreate it. I also added a personalized, autographed index to it for good measure! If you are interested in seeing some detail shots and would like to see the specifics of the piece, check it out here: www.timcarrollart.com/stantheman.htm

    What was your favorite card design growing up?

    I loved those '87's as well. My dad got me a whole bunch of 72's shortly after I started collecting, and I loved the colors from that set. In 1991 when Stadium Club came out, I really spent some money on packs. While I love the vintage stuff now (and all sets that pay tribute to past...

    Congrats, Eric! I know how great it feels to put a set to bed almost a decade after starting..... Tim

    There comes a time......

    I think that would be a consensus, but I'm not talking about getting a choice between a true all-time baseball legend and career backup quarterback. I would also venture to guess that that the same consensus would pick a low-end Musial autograph from the late 90's over a super-premium...

    There comes a time......

    Oh....without a doubt. Like I said above - I know most of these guys were so underpaid that they have made much, much more money in their lives signing their name than playing the game. It is still their primary source of income, so it makes sense that they are still doing it into their 90's...

    There comes a time......

    when card companies should let a legend be and not have him autograph cards. I know, some players may be depending on the $$$ to help with any expenses they have. When you see cards like this, it is hard not to think about how "up in age" some of our legends are getting to be. Let's continue...

    Education on topic needed

    Dave: I've never heard of any redemptions being inside of a rip card. I guess the way to look at it is: the contents of the rip card are not going to change over time. It all depends on if you feel lucky. Fortunately, even with older rip cards that are holding the extended minis (which are...

    Another MASSIVE ATTIC VINTAGE Find! WOW!!

    Jim, I would consider this a "find" for the hobby itself. Maybe someone didn't pull back the floorboards of their 110-year old attic floor and discover the stash sitting untouched for decades. I am certain that the family didn't find a map in the attic that led them down a hole in the...

    "Lex Rutledge"

    I finished this one recently, but I had to keep it off the page until it was given as a gift. This one is of (and FOR) Lex Rutledge, 6th RD pick of the Baltimore Orioles in this year's draft. His family is sending me a picture of him with the art - I'll edit this post and add as soon as I get...

    Winner GIANTS FAN - Guess The Price - 1910 E98 Honus Wagner PSA 10

    I know it is standard with all auctions, but I did find it amusing that they have a button under the auction description that is titled, "I have one of these to sell"......... Tim

    Another MASSIVE ATTIC VINTAGE Find! WOW!!

    I think it was the back variations that threw them off. They saw the $$$ when the Black Swamp found was announced. Personally, even if I didn't collect I would have already toploaded each and researched each and every card extensively. You know with all of this publicity that these finds are...

    Ebay Bucks- Making the decision

    I tend to use your #2 method. By doing that, I have bought some things I felt was probably too high - but I wanted them anyway. Never regretted it. Tim
