I got to meet him during Final Four in 2001 at an event and got a pic with him...which has been lost, and I saw him earlier this year at a FF hotel but I didn’t approach him.

Thanks brother. Probably the one I snagged first!

Love that rookie, I've been keeping my eyes on them.

Ive never seen that die cut. The red ink /5 is also very nice. Thank you for sharing.

Earvin32 · 08-28-2019, 09:14 PM

The 2012 status red Oscar was supposed to be jersey numbered (/14) but I could never find one until mine popped up on eBay and it was /4. I thought 1/4 was a good number to have. It could be argued that it is both jersey numbered with his Cincy and Milwaukee numbers.

mkebuckscollect · 08-28-2019, 11:41 PM

Nothing super duper crazy, but I really really love Oscar! Have been watching some '61 Fleers, that'll be the really big one!

mkebuckscollect · 08-28-2019, 11:44 PM

Crap, sorry, not sure how to shrink those!

cardfund · 08-29-2019, 06:18 AM

Amazing cards, love me some 'scar. Criminally underrated IMO.

Nice thread.

I only have two.

Siberian13 · 08-30-2019, 01:32 PM

I pulled an auto of his and was like sweet. Then looked up his prices and was like damn.

itrocdaj · 08-30-2019, 01:36 PM

Although I'm not a collector of his by any means, I was still very happy to land this keeper in a group break random several years back.

How does your wife put up with you...

Really like the eminence style. The thick ink has kept me away thus far though. May give in after seeing that one.

Man love all these, still my favorite player. Used to super collect him years ago....Panini killed my enthusiasm once they got him to sign.

Kept this one as it was not an easy find.

These were some of my favorites that were hard to let go.

Whodey14 · 08-31-2019, 01:59 PM

Bravesfan4life-those are awesome. I've never seen the one you kept. Very cool.

Would love to see the rest of you prior collection.
