Huggins & Scott have the Holy Grail

Just got this in the mail yesterday and thought I would share it. Can't wait to see the hammer price on this

I can't wait to see the grade. It looks like it might get a 6 or 7. Lots of edge wear.

They have it displayed on their homepage. It was graded a BGS 9 with the following subgrades:

centering 9.5
corners 8.5
edges 9
surface 9

autograph 10

I can't wait to read all the reasons why anyone bidding on this is a fool and how that money could be better spent on a myriad of other things.

How many different "1 of 1" Strasburg autographed cards are there? Boy the card company (Topps) must lean back in their chair and ask themselves if there is any limit to the market manipulation possibilities.

dammit..
that's not the Holy Grail..
that's the Holy CRAP!

It's really about the adrenaline rush of gambling. If we put it in perspective it's not as bad as saying it's collecting baseball cards. This is just my opinion from doing a bit of research. I don't collect new cards but there is more interest today than there has been in quite some time and that can't be bad for our segment. Hopefully, it gets younger collectors involved and eventually, they come to their senses and collect pre-war. best regards

There will be alot from various issues but they will not sell as well. If they produce "Topps Chrome" it will be the only comparable product.

The "Chrome" brand has been around long enough and is the highst regarded rookie card by modern card collectors.

If they produce "Topps Chrome"

The only real question @ this point is how many different colors of it they are going to produce. (my apologies Peter)
