Any Hank Aaron autograph will always be cool. This Hall of Fame auto #/10 is pretty cool, too.

Just picked up this 1958 Topps Hank Aaron for my Hank run. Any guesses on the grade?

the hobby is quirky. In vintage, a regular player card is almost always worth a lot more than an all-star card of the same player in the same year. I look at cards like this as a buying opportunity to get some of the cards I can’t afford otherwise (a trend you’ll see my collection has often. I zag when everyone zigs). Hobby purists love the 1968 Topps set. (I’m more partial to 1969). I was able to get this for <$50 at a local show while everyone else was buying shiny, over produced cards of Skenes, Elly, and Witt. I’ll take the Hank Aaron all day, every day.

Nbd, just one of the decent smaller cards we got to film in our custom light box we built to film b-roll while making our documentary The Hobby.

One of my all-time favorite baseball cards. 1954 Topps Hank Aaron rookie auto. The card is in PSA 1-2 condition. There’s a crease. Centering and color and edges aren’t too bad and the autograph is nice and bold. I bought it 5 years ago at the National. It was one of the cards I was after. I saw 4-5 of them there in various cases from $1800-7500 depending on the dealer and condition. I was able to get one down for $1300 cash at the end. Super happy to get it. He passed away two years later, so thrilled I got it before he died. RIP to the king of the home run. Firmly locked away in my PC. Would love to add a real Josh Gibson card or ticket or relic one day. Shoot me a DM if you have one to move!
