Hey gang,

We have a few people on this board (myself, cantstop17) that are working on the Legends Masterpieces Brown Border Autograph set, and others (.g.) that may be thinking about it.

The trouble with this set is that though it's been out for 7 months, some of the autographs out of this set have yet to surface, leading to questions about their existance in the first place.

These are the autos I have yet to see anywhere in brown border form, with ones I've seen in other borders noted where applicable

-Mike Bossy
-Mario Lemieux
-Mark Messier (Have seen in Blue Border)
-Phil Esposito (Have seen in Blue Border)
-Patrick Roy (Have seen in Green Border)
-Rod Gilbert
-Stan Makita

Aldo (cantstop17) and I had talked about Lafontaine and Hawerchuk, but I don't see them on the regular auto checklist.

I can slightly answer one of your question regarding the Mario Lemieux. I haven't seen any brown border autos of his, but here is the green border one:

There is also a Rob Gilbert that is listed in the Becket along with Lafontaine and Hawerchuk that I don't believe even exist.But,If someone has one please show us.
I have The Stan Mikita Brown and its the only one I've seen,I have also seen only 3 copies of Phil Esposito ,one of which is on Ebay now at a BIN super high price,asking in excess of $300,the other 2 sold around $40-$45.Well as for the Messier a local collector has one (he got it from HI member mark14h)and the only way I'll get it from him is if its the last card I need,which means I probably won't get it .Mike Bossy ,I have seen a hand full of them.
Lemieux I have seen 1 posted here on HI and Patrick Roy ,I have yet to see any brown or any other parallel brushstrokes .
I have the Doug Gilmour but its a redemption and i don't know if I'll ever see that .But if anyone has a redeemed Gilmour ,I would love to see it.

Oh the Doug Gilmour's a good point. I've seen other border Gilmours (someone posted a Green one as part of a mailday as recent as 3 days ago)

Good point on the Gilbert though...that one also is not on UD's master checklist. Was probably part of a prelim and was pulled.

So you've seen a brown border Lemieux Aldo? Or were you referring to the Green Border Tina just posted?

If Tina posted the Lemieux back on the National Card trading Day Contest for the Box of Game used give away ,It would be the same .If it wasn't Tina ,someone else posted one.I tried to do a search but couldn't find it.

No, I don't think it was me.
 
I'm pretty sure that my Oct 3rd pick of Mike Bossy was Brown border (doesn't specific in eBay auction title, and card is at home). It costs me $20, didn't know that it was that rare. Lucky me. I guess.
 
It looks like a brown border auto. Anyways, was there a brown border Gretzky auto? I haven't seen one around at all.

That clears that up...thanks gang.

As for Gretzky...yes Gretzky cards exist. A friend of mine has one he single pack pulled out of Masterpieces last October. What luck :eek:
 
I had a Mario Lemieux Brown border auto myself. I sold it to a set builder online. So, yes it does exist. I was attempting to build the set myself at first but gave up pretty quickly. I saw a Mikita and a Messier on the bay early after release but none since

My Masterpiece so far...

I was going to wait until it was done but it has been quite a while... so what the heck :D.

According to the UD checklist I am using, the only one I'm missing is Messier. If there are any others I am missing, please let me know so that I can bang my head against a wall :|

As far as Gilbert, Lafontaine, and Hawerchuk I don't think they were actually made.

Sounds a lot like 06-07 Parkhurst, the auto-pilot publication from Dallas has no clue what's going on... I've had a few of these pass through my hands, and I don't recall seeing any of the ones listed above.

Wow, what a waste of money that was! :) Nice looking set Jeff. Very impressive. If I ever come across a Messier, I'm gonna have to charge you "1 million dollars!" :D

My collector friend NAPA owns that /10 red parallel brushtrokes. Other Finnish collector is redeemed that Gilmour brown border auto, but UD Status is still: waiting for athletes signatures or something.. so its not made yet.
Those three cards are done. Not sure how is 1/1 Black brushtrokes situation?
