Here’s quite the oddball for you… Back in the early 90s I think this was 1994, Signature Rookies produced cards that included autographed prepaid phone cards. I have no idea why in retrospect, but inserted prepaid, phone calls and autographed prepaid phone cards were all the rage. Weird, right? Anyways, I decided to chase and collect all 40 of these prepaid phone card autos featuring rookies of the 1995 NFL class. Most of the players were busts, other than Curtis Martin, who is a top 10 NFL running back. The phone cards at $2 each probably have more worth than the actual collectable!

Royal Hallady was a Hall of Fame pitcher and put up amazing numbers. Unfortunately, a plane crash took his life when he was four too young, only 40 years old. This rookie autograph is from a company called Signature Rookies. They had some pretty amazing products before everything was autographed. You could expect an autograph in every pack and there were some products like “Autobilia” that had redemptions good for autographed 8x10’s, jerseys, and signed balls. They were really ahead of their time. While many of their cards don’t hold a ton of value. This one is between a 100 and $200 card.
