I decided to scrap those cards. I realized that the guys who I want to send them too (the ones who arn't on a topps card) would be really hard or just impossible to find pictures for.

so i want to make one without a picture.

Those look real good!

I've been tinkering with a custom Tigers autograph card today.

What do you think?

Got a return today that destroyed my previous record for the longest time for a successful return...

Jerry Turner (Tigers Outfielder in '82-'83)
749 days!
and he only returned 1 of the 2 cards I sent lol

[quote="maxsoul9"]I also collect alot of Tigers as they are my hometown team. I recently started collecting guys that played the last season/game of Tiger Stadium. My favorite guy growing up was Chet Lemon. I'd love to get him in my collection.[/quote]


yea, me too. But he never signs TTM. and I never see him doing shows.

[color=#000080]They were all deceased (Cash, Wilson, and Sparma) by the time I started to collect so I bought them -- two from a dealer and one on-line...they are all authenticated and slabbed by PSA. Currently Mayo Smith is my most wanted...but....[/color][/quote][/quote][/quote]


good luck with Mayo Smith


I am unemployed and totally broke, so I only do free TTM right now. But eventually ill have to start buying ones for guys who passed away or charge. I have paid to get Lolich a couple times (he charges $10/per). And send Ron LeFlore $10 to sign a couple cards but never got them back! :(( I wanted to get a few Kaline, but he keeps upping his charge. It wasn't too bad when it was $10, but I think its like $25 now. Still not horrible for a guy like him, but too much for me right now, especially with how many cards of him I need to get signed. Still have a couple ones of Lolich I need to get signed.
