Excited to share this big recent pickup:

Wow! I wish I could get even just the normal version of this one day.

The only other instances that I'm aware of him signing his full name would be stickers from Ultra Fresh Ink and non-NBA licensed SAGE.

Here's another one of the three bronze parallels from Upper Deck for the Admiral especially for you Buckunteer (I mistakenly had previously mentioned that there were four):


I'm actually one further along as of a few days ago. I acquired a BIG one that I'll share when it comes in probably late this week/early next week.

As for my progress, I have MJ, Pip, Magic, Bird, Mullin, Laettner, Malone, Stockton, Drexler in my possession right now.

I have one of the remaining three (Barkley, Ewing, Admiral) incoming, which leaves just two. Obviously Barkley is the huge financial hurdle. Also, several of my autos don't qualify for this 90s-themed thread, but here are a couple


97-98 SOTT Mullin

97-98 SP buyback of 95-96 SP Drexler /6!

The Drexler pairs nicely with this one, no?

I'm sure you'll reel one in soon man! They seem to pop up every six months or so, and go for about $250, give or take.

Thanks for sharing these autos, I love 'em all! I've never seen that Mullin before, so that was very neat. Did he, Mitch and Timmy ever sign a card together in tribute of their Run TMC days? I'm also a big fan of buyback autos in general, and I definitely enjoy the 1995-96 SPA set, even though they're not always necessarily the most conducive to great/vivid on-card autos. I don't have the Admiral one of these yet, but definitely hope to add it eventually. Did you notice somebody's appearance on the last UD Bronze that I shared and mentioned was for you?

Today's share will be the other not-yet-shared Bronze from the 1998-99 Upper Deck:

Haha thanks for the props, and I did see good ol' Mitch peeking out. Don't typically see those two together on a card given their disparate positions so that's pretty cool. I have several with Mitch and MJ on them though which obviously I enjoy a great deal!

And unfortunately the only triple auto of Run TMC was in Immaculate a couple years ago. I believe it's /25, all on-card autos, really a good looking card. I've seen probably half the print run sell on ebay and (somebody with worthpoint can confirm) I think only one went below $200. Would love to add one, but probably just not in the cards. Pun woefully intended

I'm not sure exactly how rare these "Member's Choice Gold" versions are, but rumor is that they're pretty rare. The only one that COMC has ever had pass through their inventory is an Olajuwon, and I only see one Jordan currently listed on eBay and a recent sale of a Shaq.



The much more common Member's Only Beam Teams have the words "Member's Only" repeatedly written inside the silver holofoil spotlights:



If anybody knows any more about these gold versions, I'd love to hear!

Ahhh really like that Ben Plat Medallion. I have an unofficial Ben Wallace side PC that I'd like to add one of those to.

Today's share is an old classic beauty. While I don't know for certain that this particular autographed card came from a pack of Skybox with the signature already on it (there are rumors that many have been legitimately signed in person, as well as plenty of counterfeits/forgeries), I'm as confident as ever that it was signed by the Admiral himself. Rumors of cards coming from packs both with and without the Skybox seal, as well as the Skybox seal being used on plenty of forged cards make the autos from both Robinson and Magic in this year's Skybox, much less sought than they should be. Still, a beauty that I'm thrilled to have in my collection either way:

1999-00 Century Club UD Game Jersey of Jason kid. There are only 100 of each Century Club Game Jersey, and most Century Club jerseys were were normally hand #'d /100. Not sure why this one isn't.

The cool thing about that warmup set is the actual warmup is pictured on the back!
