Autographed Baseball HOFer Cards for Trade (scan heavy)

[JollyElm]

From about 1978 to 1983 I used to write to players in a non-stop quest for autographs. I'd research retired players to get their home addresses or I'd send to current players at the various stadiums. When it came to the old timers, I'd usually only send cards in rough shape, so if they didn't respond (which happened often) I wouldn't be out too much. Overall, I did pretty well, though, and have a bunch of autographed HOF cards to trade.

Let me make this clear. All of these cards except Brooks Robinson (card show on Long Island), a couple of the Reggie Jacksons (spring training game), Steve Carlton (various card shows via a 'Lefty' collector) and Enos Slaughter (from a trade) were obtained through the mail (TTM). I don't have a single COA or anything of that nature, so I can't truly claim they're authentic. Of course, I got these at a time when autographs weren't such a cash crop business, so there was never a reason for me to doubt their authenticity.

To see all the scans of my HOFer collection, see this section of my bucket: http://s1226.photobucket.com/albums/...aphed%20Cards/

I also have a wide variety of other autographed cards of stars, semi-stars, commons, etc., from the 70's and early 80's (there are pictures of many of those in my bucket, too, but I have even more of them laying around). So if you're looking for anyone else, I may be able to help.

If you're interested in anything, LMK what you have off of my need list and let's talk. I'll be happy to answer any questions. I'm not looking to sell anything, just trade.

If you have nothing off of my need list, I am also very interested in these:
• 1972 Topps FB high numbers (need these in exmt+ shape: 271 Warfield AP, 277 Eller AP, 280 Lilly AP, 304 Dale, 308 Morrall, 312 Marsalis, 336 Marshall, 341 Butkus)
• 1972 Topps BB (upgrading my 2 sets and looking for nr. mt. centered 'in-action' cards, a few stars and a bunch of others)
• 1962 Topps BB (haven't put a comprehensive need list together yet, but want to upgrade my set and could use sharp, decently centered cards as well as a few 'green tints')
• 1963 Fleer BB (need about 20 or so, including some HOF'ers, in exmt or better shape and have many to trade)
• 1964 Topps (just started upgrading this set, so could use many of the stars in exmt or better shape)
• 1964 Topps Stand-Ups (need virtually any in nice shape)
• 1954 Bowman BB (looking for a starter set in ex+ shape)
• I'm always interested in HOF'ers and high numbers in nice shape from the 50's and 60's.
• Plus, I'm forever looking to upgrade many other cards from my 1957-1972 sets, so if you have sharp cornered cards in nice shape, I may be able to use some of them.
