MrMopar's New Dodgers Autograph Thread (and other interesting items on a slow mailday)

[Dilferules]

Those 1997 Bowman Gold Ink Autos are pretty tough, and due to the type of ink some of them don't have the best signatures. I only have 2 of the 5 A's in the set.

New one but has not played for Dodgers (yet).

 

[mrmopar]

Garvey /150.

Pederson.

Garvey Orange /25 dupe.
Ethier.

Perconte. This came with another 13 various dodger TTM/IP from BB Card Exchange. The rest weren't worth the time to share.

Hodges Pap cartoon.

Messersmith 78T Auto. It's tough to see, but it very much looks real. Messersmith was not signing for a long time. I saw at least 1 or 2 people claiming to get something back from him in the not so distant past, but I never followed up. I would love to get is 78 OPC and especially 79 OPC signed if he were a willing signer again.


Finally, a couple of Team issued jerseys for coach Connor McGuiness. I really don't care for the new jerseys compared to older versions. I got these mostly because they also had cool patches on them. I don't admit to knowing a lot about team issued jerseys, but this seller seems to have a continuous supple of dodger stuff. there are some holograms, but i have not dug deeper. They seem to line up with what I could find on newer jerseys after I bought the Darwin Barney one a little bit ago.

The first is an ASG patch. The 2nd has a 30 patch for Maury Wills and a Vin patch for Vin Scully.

Had another large lot of mostly TCMA minor leaue cards (some cramer stuff too) from BB Card Exchange arrive today, 21 cards. Mostly Dodgers and Mariners, but a few other goodies. I don't want to grab each scan, so I am not sharing as part of my new, leaner post policy on this thread.

Highlights are probably the Tony Brewer 84 & 85 Cramer cards., an 85 Cramer Brian Holton (google him, he had a rough go after baseball) and a 84 Cramer Lemmie Miller Brewer only had an 85 Donruss (Rated Rookie) and a Target card, I believe.

Then I got this. Probably already have this particular version, but it was relatively cheap. 3/6.

I don't chase enough nice old vintage autos these days for a couple reasons. I have a good selection already. They have shot up in price. I like to get the certified cards I missed throughout the late 90s and 2000s, when I was fixated on just Garvey stuff.

This, I believe, is a new addition. 1950 Bowman Jim Russell. This specific signed card, not the signature of Russell itself (have a few). not the best quality, but I'll take it.

Heritage Red /74

Lot of Dukes set w/ 9 Autos.

Garvey Gold /50.

 

[mrmopar]

Just back from vacation...lotsa of mail! 2 posts to get it all.


Auto /25 ./15 .Auto /25
Auto /25, but also came with IRod, O'Neill and Surhoff autos for a steal of a price! I believe all of the father/son combos were /25.
Have a few of these from an artist who doesn't flood the market. They are actual art, not prints. I think he does 1 per year for a player.
Uni match 6/10, plus still needed this design anyway.

This is a new Dodger auto that I have been waiting to add. I am unsure about it, maybe a quick IP or TTMN, but it was cheap enough to take a chance on. justin Bruihl. I think I have given up on getting ALL LA Dodgers now that Ohtani signed with them though. Still haven't tracked down a Betts either. oh well, will keep going with the affordable guys for a bit longer I suppose.

This is similar to a card (also multi-Dodger aut) that I got before that was also faded. Real damn shame someone let this happen, but also kept it affordable and it's bad, but not terrible.

Picked up 3 sets of Dare Dodgers (2003), mostly because they don't pop up much and someone is selling a ton on ebay, but minus McGriff. Maybe why they don't pop too often.

/25 & /50 Chrome Black.

I have not logged him in as a Dodger yet...think Danny Duffy from a couple years back, but I did obtain an auto just in case he does play next year. I don't expect he won't, but jumping on new pick-ups in the off season can be risky. I already have a few Margot autos, the guy the Dodgers got with Glasnow.

 

[mrmopar]

Garvey/Baker /25.

Furillo signed the back of some guys business card. Would make a nice cut, as it is perfectly sized.

Two Garvey cards in today. 1 is this 6/20 uniform match auto.

The other I won't show, because it's the wrong damn card...again! Seriously, how flipping hard is it to mail the right thing to the right buyer? I won a card /10 and got one /25. Once again, I am hoping that the other person is honest, because I never get the better card sent to me! It's always my better card being sent to someone else and I get their lesser card. Hopefully this will resolve quickly and positively. I am tired of dealing with wrong cards though.

I got the opposite recently...I bought a $10 card and was sent a $100+ Jackson Holliday auto. I was honest and returned it.

Garvey /50 today

 

[mrmopar]

Getting to scratch a new pone off the list thanks to what looks like a Leaf signing. Lots of low numbered cards just popped up on ebay. I don't care for the prismatic look or the logoless look, but needed Sheehan and it was cheap enough. It's numbered to /6

Furcal Archive. Another year I like to chase, besides the 61 and 58 designs, which make for great autograph subjects.

Seller of the Tier One 4/10 Garvey that I won and was missent to another buyer said that other buyer won't respond. If anyone here was the recipient of this Garvey or happens to see it out in the wild, that person with it is likely a thief! I already had the /10, so no loss for me, but I hope the person who got it has some appropriate karma.

Kudos to the seller. He said to keep the /25 and gave me a full refund. Classy way and well beyond what I would have expected. i'd have been happy to send it back for the refund. Unfortunately it only hurt the seller in this case.

/50.
Had to get one for the great image.

 

[mrmopar]

Another Garvey /50, but different pattern.

I have this already, but can't recall if it came with all the UDA stuff, so got another. Lot included the 3 players 75 Topps cards too, so small bonus.

 

[mrmopar]

/25

Lot of 6 approx. 8x10 B&W photos, presumably team issue. Have not seen too many like this. I am guessing these are either 1960 or 1961, given that Larker and Neal were both gone by 62 and Howard was essentially a rookie in 1960.
