RBI: The autographs

[TempoGL]

who here has the most autographed cards of RBI players?

In the past two weeks, i have acquired the following players:

Tim Raines
Spike Owen
Dickie Thon
Andy Ashby

For one reason or another, i also got the following players (they seem pretty random, mostly white sox players, although the non-sox are special to me in one way or another)

Jose Valentin
Chris Snopek
Peter Bergeron
Alvaro Espinoza
Luis Vizcaino
Dustin Hermanson

I would like to add that I did not pay any more than $2 for any of these cards, lest you think I am a nut for buying an autographed Alvaro Espinoza card.

Try to keep up, Strassy.

That's funny, I just outbid you on each of those. 

Thanks for the tip!

juan beniques was a quality angel during the early 80's.  an instant recognition guy if you mention his name among those fans in the know.

Plus, my thread is way better because I have actual pics.

[TempoGL]

i'll take pics when i get them

I have a ball that I jumped onto Fenway Park field during batting practice when I was 12 to get.  Boggs refused to sign it, but I got Mike Heath to sign it.  I would like to here more about autographs of the obscure players.  They must be tougher to come by.

That's impressive.  Unfortunately, I can't say I have any of the ones you're missing, although I want to say my brother had a Sam Graddy card, and that's how I knew he was a world-class sprinter.

my brother is hard to shop for, and a big bulls fan...so i thought i'd get him a bunch of random bulls memorabilia off ebay.  there was a listing for 3 autographed bulls cards, including norm van lier (who is now dead and someone my brother is a fan of), so I thought I'd bid on it to try and get it for him.  in the process, i checked out the other auctions the guy had.  There was one for auto'd Joe Niekro, Jerry Royster, and John Candelaria cards.  Since he didn't charge extra for shipping more than one auction, I figured I'd get those for myself.

You guessed it...got outbid on the bulls cards, and now I am stuck buying these other cards.
