Pops and Mailing


This is a Willie Stargell cut auto from 2005 Legendary Cuts.  I have several Stargell auto's but this one has always been my favorite.  One nice thing about collecting Pirates is that besides Clemente, autos and relics of the hall of fame/retired players are affordable.  Auto's of Mazeroski, Kiner and Dave Parker can all be had for $15-$30.  Stargell is usually a notch above that amount, but considering he passed away back in 2001, I still consider that pretty reasonable.

On a side note I continue to sort cards and continue to find a lot of good stuff that some of my new blogger friends are sure to like.  As a thanks for all of those who have helped me get this blog off the ground I just sent out a second wave of mail today.  Thanks again to everybody that continues to plug the blog and comment on my posts.  Remember always feel free to drop me a line as I love to work trades.

*****Baseball was on TV today!  I caught some of the Reds/Indians game.  The Pirates beat the Yankees today as well.  Before we know it will be opening day!

  4. Cool Stargell Auto. With those cut sigs it is always interesting to try to figure out where they came from and hopefully not by chopping up another card (http://captkirk42.blogspot.com/search/label/cut%20signatues).

    That Stargell sig probably came from an autographed portrait (the black lines from his jersey's collar).

    1. I agree with you that it looks to be off an 8 x10. By the way be on the lookout for some mail.
