Amazing 1/1 pick up and a question

kukocitb · 12-10-2020, 01:38 PM

I saw this card on ebay but I thought it was too high priced. I watched the seller lower the price over time and eventually placed a bid that was around 10 bucks shipped. Luckily I was the only who bid.

Never really been a huge fan of Press Pass but some of their cards are AWESOME. This one is no exception. I didn’t realize it was a one of one because the cards are not serial numbered but based off of print run. Big shout out to the collectors who taught me a few things about press pass. Learn something new every day.

Does anyone have any other variations of this card?

Yeah, just a beautiful card with a great photo and auto. I can't imagine the feeling of finding out after the fact that the on card auto of your pc guy that you just bought was a 1/1. The odds of that must be next to nothing!

Niiiice! Not anywhere near that 1/1 but I still have those SSP Robin Lopez Prizms @ comc w your name on it. Maybe I'll just snail mail it back to me and surprise you in 2022.

Congrats man! Such a nice card with awesome photography!

byronscott4ever · 12-11-2020, 11:57 AM

Great find....Beckett lists a Byron inscription that I’ve never seen which makes me wonder if it exists (different product) which also makes me wonder if the player is told how many to sign or are they counted later?

doubledribble · 12-11-2020, 12:19 PM

Nice! That was a good year for press pass...loved the legends set

Was it Press Pass or another company? PP was pretty accurate with their inscription info.
