Hello everyone,
At this point with my HHOF autograph collection, I'm having to rely on cut signatures to fill it out. I've gone pretty slow with this, as most of the cuts of the big names are rather expensive. However, I have managed to snag a few interesting inductees over the year and wanted to share them here. Moreover, I want to see what everyone else here is packing, because I'm sure it is absolutely incredible. Feel free to plunk them in this thread, whether they came from a pack/certified product or anywhere else.
First, my two non-slabbed cuts:
Clarence Campbell and Babe Pratt
The Campbell is one of the crown-jewels of my collection!
Next, two of the more "questionable" cuts:
Mike Ilitch and Walter Bush Jr.
I typically try to avoid homebrew products like this, but the price was cheap enough that I went for them anyway. I'm happy to have Walter Bush represented in the collection, as he was a massively influential figure in USA Hockey.
Back to products that would have come out of a box:
Murray Costello, Bill Chadwick, and Kenny Reardon
I'm a big fan of the various years of Leaf Sports Icons and am very thankful for how many lesser-available names they have allowed me to add. The Kenny Reardon is one I am especially fond of. I had a Frank Mathers cut on the way as well, but it seems to have disappeared into the ether during delivery.
Now, here are my dual Leaf Sports cuts:
Brian Kilrea/Lou Lamoriello and Brian O'Neill/John Ziegler Jr.
Dave Molinari/Red Fisher, Marc de Foy/Scotty Morrison, and Cliff Fletcher/Keith Allen
I am always on the lookout for Foster Hewitt and Elmer Ferguson Award winners, as recipients are honoured with enshrinement into the HHOF.
Finally, let's go with Famous Fabric Inks:
Ed Snider, Ray Scapinello, Andy Van Hellemond, and Milt Dunnell
I think these cards are very attractive, especially for cut+slabs. I would love to add a couple more to my collection, as a seller has some obscure names I need on eBay, but they are asking for extremely high prices and refuse to budge off of them (sorry to complain about pricing here). Oh well!
Now, let me see what you all have!
