I bought this card raw quite a few years ago on whim. I was a huge Dalles fan in the late 70’s early 80’s. Sent it in on the modern football special. Pretty happy about it!!

One of the best, and most popular, NFL coaches of all time. Tom Landry played in the NFL and latercoached the Cowboys. He was a legend, and it turned out also a fashion icon. I miss the generation of coaches where they dressed up, wore suits, and he was known for his distinctive fedora. Being a Cowboys fan in the 70s and 80s, this is a super cool card to have as part of my collection. Just further proof that cards don’t need to be super expensive to be cool.

In the football cards, Playoff Contenders has always been one of the top products of the year, especially for rookies. The rookie autographs from players like Peyton Manning, Randy Moss and Tom Brady carry high premiums. The rare parallels of these cards make them even more desirable. As aCowboys fan, I was able to get this PSA 9 Zeke Elliott rookie Contenders autograph for a remarkably low price. Yes, I would prefer a card in a PSA 10 and grade But for now, I’m happy to have this one.

Running backs run so hard that when that drop happens, they fall off a cliff, their numbers really decline. Except for a few people like Emmitt, Payton, Frank Gore, AP, Curtis Martin, Derrick Henry, they tend to bottom out. Often, card values tank. Which is fine with me. It allows me to get cool cards of some of my favorite players at a reasonable cost. Prime Zeke was a BEAST. And this is a sweet gold vinyl Prizm with a BGS 10 grade. I don’t have any black labels, so this might be my only BGS 10. As a Cowboys fan, happy to have this in my long term PC.

As a kid, my two favorite players both had the jersey #33. Tony Dorsett and Larry Bird. Here is the 1978 Topps Tony Dorsett rookie card autographed and authenticated by PSA DNA. I might upgraded to a higher graded version at some point. But pretty happy with how this one presents.
