Default Favorite Inscriptions

Just scooped this up. Busiest man in the offseason!



There's probably already a thread about inscriptions, but what are your favorite ones?

Sometimes, Julius ads Dr. J to his auto. I have not heard a reason why he sometimes adds it.

I know this has been posted a billion times on this forum but EVERYTIME I see an inscription thread I think of this:



While googling his name I found out that he actually lost one of his legs in a car accident. Crazy.

Another question is that he sometimes adds it as an apparent inscription (like what you showed here), while some other times he seemingly incorporates it as part of his autograph.



Such incorporation seems to happen to his early UD autograph cards as well.

Usually you get one or the other (Big O or full name only) which is why I love this card so much.

Nice card! I believe that Robertson only signs "Big O" for free IP autographs, while the nickname is usually available as an add-on for his paid signings.

The Panini Hall of Fame "Monikers" set really contains some, if not many, nice autograph+inscription cards, even somehow successfully getting at least one rare legend (Larry Bird) that doesn't do inscriptions at all in other paid signings.

I've been collecting inscription autos for awhile. With a lot of players signing so many cards, I like the added rarity of an inscription.

Besides the ones ppl have already listed, I'm a huge fan of 2003-04 UD Legends Legendary Inscriptions.

While I would pay a premium for inscriptions that mean something (nicknames, accomplishment, etc...) I have zero interest in inscriptions that are there just to be there (I think Exquisite once had players put their favorite foods or movies).

As far as this forum goes, this is one of my all-time faves:
