Autographed/Signed Run

[Mark70Z]

I’ve come to a bit of a standstill in my Brooks Robinson signed run. There a few cards listed out there that I’m still missing, but if I picked them up I’d have to upgrade and I’m trying not to do anymore of that. Is there anywhere else besides eBay that I can look for these autos?

Here’s the one’s I still need:

1957 - should have picked up the one that was on eBay for a while, but was a bit high in price. Looking back I probably should have bit the bullet prior to it being sold.

1961 - tough to find with the black background.

1963 - I’ve seen a lot in sharpie, but want a nice one in pen. Preferably not up/down on the card.

1978 - there’s a lot out there in pen, but every one I have seen is light or I don’t like how he signed the card.

I have picked up some of his other, non-regular issue cards, but don’t really consider them as part of the run, but if they come along and are nice I’ll pick them up as well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I’d like to finish this and not give up on completing this thing...

Wish I could help Mark. I have a couple but they wouldn't do you any good...pen signed '59 team card (came from a 50 cent box and looks the part LOL), a couple of regular base cards not on your want list, etc. I look at a lot of Brooks cards so I'll keep an eye out.

Bob,

Appreciate the help with looking. I’m pretty much only looking on eBay, so if you see any in some other venue please drop me a line. When I do a side project I do become a tad impatient and start to settle for what’s out there and then ultimately try and upgrade. I’m trying not to do that with this project (even though I have already) and also not give up on it. Guess I need to place in my mind that it’s a LONG TERM project; we’ll see how that works out.
