Man, I wanted to buy this one. Been on the hunt for a match worn Pele auto, but holding off to try to get one with an on-card auto. It doesn’t have to be licensed. But it was pricey for a sticker, shaky signature, unlicensed card so I didn’t pull the trigger when I saw it today. But man, this card is still super cool with that dirty, chunky patch!
Man, he has as much personality as he did speed. He thought a lot about himself, and for good reason…he was one the best to do it. The best lead off hitter in baseball history. Lucky to pick up this game-used bat barrel nameplate just last week.
While game-used/match-worn cards are always a premium, they can get expensive. enter non-licensed items like Leaf. You can get unique items from big players at a fraction of the price. I don’t have a lot of them, but unique stuff like this still fits my collection well.
