New Certified Autographed Cards

I picked up a few new certified cards over the last couple of weeks. Other than Zack Collins and Jim Landis, these are the first autographs in my collection from any of these players.

3 New Frank Thomas Cards

Tom Orr recently held a reasonably priced signing with Frank Thomas, and I sent in 3 cards. I received the cards last week.

I’ve decided to send in 2-3 cards for every Thomas signing that has an affordable fee for cards. Funds permitting, of course.

I haven’t added any new bats to the collection in quite some time, so I’m very happy to add these. They are also my first autographs from Luis Robert (just won a Gold Glove) and Eloy Jimenez (just won a Silver Slugger).

Luis Vizcaino 2005 World Series Baseball… Finally!!!

I have been trying to get a 2005 World Series baseball signed by Luis Vizcaino for years. Years ago, somebody got one signed for me in the Dominican Republic. Unfortunately, they got it signed in blue sharpie. Then, he was scheduled to do signing at a show in Chicago earlier this year. Then COVID happened, and the show was canceled at the last minute.

All the while I was checking eBay regularly, to no avail. Until now. A couple of Vizcaino WS balls finally popped up, and I snagged one. Behold!

Vizcaino was the last player I needed. I have all 25 players that were on the World Series roster, as well as Frank Thomas. I’ve never felt the need to get people like Brandon McCarthy and Brian Anderson on WS baseballs, as they weren’t on the World Series roster.

16×20 Completed

When I got this 16×20 signed by Paul Konerko and Frank Thomas, I doubted I’d ever get Magglio Ordonez to complete it. I’m VERY happy to say I was wrong! This is now one of my favorite 16x20s in my collection.

Rare(ish) Orlando Cepeda Autographs

I’ve been wanting these in my collection for a long time, and finally have them! These are from the 1980 Glen Falls White Sox TCMA sets. Thanks to Isaias Franco for another great signing!

Best Update EVER!!!

It’s been a while since my last post. For that, I apologize. To make it up to you, I present…

THE BEST POST EVER!

I’ll spare you any further buildup. Here are my new Frank Thomas items… all 14 of them!

First, the multi-signed cards that I finally completed.

Not bad, huh? How about a few “jumbo” cards, one of which is multi-signed?

Great stuff, right? Let’s keep going! How about a baseball?

Okay, just one baseball. No big deal. How about 3 16x20s?

16×20 not big enough for you? Picky, aren’t you? Fine, here is a 20×24, loaded with inscriptions!

Still not impressed? Only care about the most premium items? Well, I guess I can’t satisf… wait, hold on. What’s this, a jersey? An authentic World Series jersey? With 6 inscriptions? And PSA/DNA authentication?

Michael Jordan 20×24

Last year Palm Beach Autographs conducted a UDA signing with Michael Jordan. I sent in a 20×24 photo. I finally got around to having it framed, and must say… it looks fantastic. Make sure you click the image to see the larger image.

Jose Abreu 16x20s

I participated in the Jose Abreu signing at Bergie’s Sports Card Dugout. My friend Paul took my four items. I received the first two of those items yesterday, and they look great! Both are 16x20s.
