Favorite On-Card Autographs
Paul's Random Stuff —
Authority: 474
Dinged Corners is predicting that sticker autographs will finally die out in 2012. I confess, I don’t quite understand the hatred for sticker autographs. They’re just a challenge for the card designers. Sometimes they can be incorporated in really nice designs, like last year’s Stadium Club Beam Team inserts ...15 hours ago -

Metal Coulda Been A Contender
Wax Heaven —
Authority: 480
Parallels shouldn’t be complicated. Essentially, it’s a double with a little added bonus. Some companies add a different color border, other change the color of the foil. The most famous parallel, the Refractor, adds a colored glow to their cards. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? There are very few parallels that ...1 day ago -
Rickey Henderson Not A “Steal”
Wax Heaven —
Authority: 480
The world may never again see a character like Rickey Henderson. As one of the most collected players of all-time, thanks to an entry into the Hall of Fame, his cards have spiked even more than usual. While Rickey has plenty of rare cards, certified autographs, and game-used relics, his 1980 Topps rookie card still ...2 days ago -
Random Greg Maddux Cards
Capewood's Collections —
Authority: 118
Last week I stopped into the card shop near where I work for a few quick hits. I like browsing through the loose singles. Ill look through the cards of a player I like hoping to see something I think I dont have. And if its a card I dont have any of, even better. So last week I was looking at the Greg Maddux cards ...2 days ago -
2009 Upper Deck Goodwin Champions Daniel Murphy autograph
Paul's Random Stuff —
Authority: 474
I’m having a hard time thinking of a player who has polarized the opinions of Mets fans as much as Daniel Murphy. On the one side are people who like him because he’s a hard-working, young home-grown player. On the other side are people who look at his 2009 stats and conclude that he can’t start at first base ...3 days ago -
Remembering Shane Spencer
Paul's Random Stuff —
Authority: 474
When the Mets were building their 2004 team, they could have signed Vladimir Guererro to play right field. Instead, GM Jim Duquette decided that a platoon of former Yankees Karim Garcia and Shane Spencer would be adequate to fill the position. Before spring training was over, the move was already starting to ...3 days ago -
Who Gives A Damn About Logos?
Wax Heaven —
Authority: 480
Lately, I have become somewhat obsessed with autographed buybacks. I don’t know when they were introduced into The Hobby but it was a genius idea and a great way to tug at the nostalgia heartstrings. Take a worthless card from a forgotten player, have him sign a small number of them, include them into packs of new ...4 days ago -
Ike Davis
Paul's Random Stuff —
Authority: 474
I had my first chance to see Mets first baseman of the future Ike Davis tonight on MLB Network’s telecast of the Arizona Fall League’s Rising Stars game. Although Davis didn’t start, he got two at bats off the bench. In the fifth inning, Davis pinch hit for DH Daryl Jones with a runner on first and two outs. He ...4 days ago -

During a time when many collectors have had to quit buying new products or simply sold off their collection, Topps’ Triple Threads and Upper Deck’s Sweet Spot have provided a surprising return on investment during this recession. It all began with the heavily publicized game-used bat barrel cards Upper Deck ...4 days ago -

Are you ready to feel old? It’s been 23 years since Vincent Edward Jackson made his baseball debut with the Kansas City Royals in 1986. It seems almost that long since he played his final game in 1994 with the California Angels. You’ll never see Bo Jackson inducted into Cooperstown and with stars like Albert ...5 days ago -
