I don’t have enough McGrady cards, maybe only 2-3. But I love these 2006-07 (twenty years ago!) credentials parallels. My second favorite looking credentials set with the acetate cards/colors. Just had this graded last month, happy with the CGC 9 grade. Slabs are crystal clear and the grading process took <1 month.

Chalk this one up into things you rarely, if ever, see. This is an in-person autograph of his Holiness the Dalai Lama, the exiled leader from Tibet. This one will never be sold, as my family has connections to him. My maternal grandfather was part of the Indian consulate and attaché to the exiled leader in Dharamsala, India in the 1960s. You rarely see autographs of his, especially on a Topps card! In fact, I don’t know if I’ve ever seen another one in my life. Happy to have this one authenticated by JSA and in a clean, clear, crystal CGC slab.

I had this poster on my wall when I was a kid. Probably the most iconic picture of the two-sport superstar. Bo Jackson’s physical prowess and skill made him one of the best two-sport athletes the world has ever seen. Bo signed some of these cards, but due to a legal dispute with photographer has not been able to sign them for years, making authenticated copies of this card very sought after. So happy to have this in my long-term permanent PC and the CGC x JSA slabs are beautiful and crystal clear. Less than a month turnaround time from submission to my hands!

Picked up this old label 9.8 for a steal. Thinking of getting it recased but a bit nervous it won’t come back in a 9.8 still.

Batman #139 — the first appearance of the original Bat-Girl (Betty Kane) — graded CGC 5.5 Cream to Off-White Pages. Pure early-’60s DC charm, packed with bright colors, playful action, and that unmistakable era where Gotham was bold, fun, and iconic.

This is one of those books that tells you exactly where comic history was at the time — Batwoman, Bat-Girl, Batman, and Robin all sharing the spotlight. Not about chasing perfect numbers… it’s about owning a foundational piece of the Bat-family legacy.

Some books age. Others define an era. 🟡🦇
