Custom Auto Cards

[thuy]

Wish I would had been doing this more through the years but lately this has become a big draw for me, no sticker autos, better pictures, and easier to keep than 8x10s.
Most were acquired personally at Cons, some were through send ins and others were through the help of forum members from Con that I could not go to. Hope for many more in the upcoming years.
All cards (asides from the 2 sketch cards) were made by Steve

Those are all way too awesome. I need to get me some custom cards

[ejs23]

Wow those are nice. That's such a great way to get autos.

Has there ever been a thread explaining how to make custom cards... or is it a trade secret? Types of card stock, printers, programs, etc? I don't have the talent to make anything that nice but wouldn't mind giving it a try.

[gdelan1]

great cards!

This is awesome man, Custom cards are great because you can make it anyway you want have it signed and then if you wanted to sell it just have it authenticated by psa/dna and its every bit as good as a pack pulled auto.

Sorry, I would have to disagree. Pack pulled cards are and always will be king. Now if it were "PSA/DNA Signed in the Presence" authentication, that would help bridge the gap significantly.

By the way, absolutely stunning cards Thuy. Love the Rey, Cap, and Falcon autos. And Back to the Future too! Wow!

Totally jealous of this fantastic auto collection!

And probably, going to the trouble of having custom cards made and arranging to attend cons/have a proxy attend, these will never be sold.

I know I won't sell the autos I've personally obtained. Every one is a memory.

Amazing cards, thanks for sharing!

[rickstaman05]

Nice collection!

[Miss Lizzy]

Love the Michael J Fox

Hey, a couple of those look really familiar.

Nice collection. I'm particularly jealous of the Morrison and Parilla, and also the McIver and Panabakers.

Thanks Alan for your help.

So for me these are fun and I am definitely not doing it for monetary gains and I actually realize that I will probably lose money if I ever decide to sell them since they are not official cards. Plus if you do calculate in the cost to get the cards made, the time and money to get them signed, it might actually be cheaper to just buy some of the official cards if they exist.

But for me at the end of the day this is a hobby that I enjoy and that is all that matters.

Still looking for many more to add to the collection.

These cards are awesome buddy, all you need to do is have them psa/dna slabbed and they are worth every bit as much as a packed pulled auto

[Cujobyte]

Awesome cards Thuy, love those Back to the Future ones!!!

[Arianny_Fan]

That Michael J Fox and Karate Kid. Love it?

[rickstaman05]

Nice Ritter auto!

[CollectorMan]

Awesome collection!

I am jealous of the Flash and Lost girl ones

Wonder how I got that one

These have been fun and it has also allowed me to get to know a few very nice people on this forum who are really in it for the collectible aspect which is very refreshing.

Here a few more:

This one came in today to finish my Back to the Future set

Nice Chris Evans autograph card. How did you get him sign?
The card itself is awesome.

I will guess the Philly comic con.

I actually did it as a send in through Twin City Comics and it is JSA verified onsite so that's pretty cool.

Wanted to go to Philly but was way too expensive. Wish I would have done the whole Marvel crew to get a full set. As mentioned I like the on card vs sticker that I have for the UD sets.

[daxwills]

Those are freaking cool. Michael J Fox has a pretty decent signature. I'd have assumed his would be, well, bad. Not trying to be mean or anything but that's better than half the auto's I see from people who don't have a reason for their signatures to be that bad.
