Strangely enough, the PSA 2 seems sharper.

Right, that’s one I was thinking of. The first touch seems impossible, but if the best goals of Maradona and Messi weren’t recorded we probably wouldn’t believe they happened, so why not this one? He was the master of the sombrero move - used it in his iconic 1958 goal - so it wouldn’t shock me. Genius.

Yes, much better color. Tiny bit of paper loss on the back.

Seems like the Alifa 635 is ready to reset soccer’s record price: a PSA 8 is at $150k hours within listing.

I can't wait to watch what this hits. $150k won't to get you a tiny piece of plastic from the corner of the slab. Hold on tight folks...this is going to be fun.

I was looking up Pele autograph prices tonight when I stumbled across some Eusebio on card autographs. Wow!...I had no idea these were commanding so much right now.

I personally think Pele autographs (on card or sticker) have a lot of room to grow still.

They do. Especially his early ones.

He’s still signing though. I don’t think there are near enough autographed cards of his, but guys like Eusebio won’t have anymore autographed cards at all.

Sportkings had Alfredo Di Stefano in their 2013 product, but no autographs that I recall, unfortunately. He would be another good one to have.

Thankfully Pele autographs are still obtainable...for a while.

A PSA 8 Alifa 649 also just appeared. In premium condition, these are even harder to find than the 635.

Agreed. There are relatively few on-card Pele autos.

Recent oddball pickup.

I already have a couple of these Pele Match Attax cards in my collection:

But I finally decided to pickup a signed copy:

Got a deal on it due to a crack in the slab and a slightly faded auto - planning on sending it in to have the slab and older style flip replaced at some point.

Finally got this guy in a new holder:
