| Your daughter is lucky. Supposedly there is one autograph in every
six boxes. I'm putting together lots of sets and find that the LP8
card and the autographs are really rare.

| Has anyone found any Conlon (1992) autographs?
Supposedly two of the HOF signers have died since the cards were
autographed.
A clue for Classic. If you are sure that an autograph came out of a
wax box, check the number on the inside of the wax box lid.
The number is a four digit with a dot between digits 3 and 4
(XXX.X). All of the boxes in that case (12) have the same number.
No other boxes have that number. Then you have to gamble. At least
two other boxes, and up to 10, have the same autograph card.
This was true for me with Russel Maryland and Frankie (Double A)
Rodriguez. Interestingly Frankie signs his name
FF
RR
No other letters.
Neat -

Mike-
Recent HOF members who have passed away include Luke Appling,
and Cool Papa Bell, but it's very unlikely that either one of them
signed for the Conlon collection -- Appling maybe, CPB -- very
unlikely.
Any idea who the signers were?

| 396.5 | Just hype | TOLKIN::CHOY | | Mon Mar 02 1992 19:41 | 4 |
| Appling died about a year ago. Unless he signed them late in 1990 or
early 1991. Doubt he was one of them. And there were no blacks in the
Conlon photos since they weren't in the AL or NL at the time. Thus, it
must be hype, Watson. Wonder who signed nonetheless.

| Luke is one of them. I'll find out who the others were. The guys
at Conlon are also putting out a Ruth set.
Supposedly the autos from luke were in the mail when he bought
the farm.
Should our mod be called cool papa roy

| 396.7 | Ruth set info? | CARTUN::PAVLOCK | | Wed Mar 04 1992 15:09 | 4 |
| I'd appreciate any info my the Ruth Set that anyone has.
Thanks in advance,
Denny

| 396.8 | Ruth | ASDS::KELLY | | Thu Mar 05 1992 16:26 | 6 |
| I think the second one was Vandermeer SP.
The Ruth set will have 165 cards-High Gloss black and white.
It ships in April.

|
| 396.9 | Another question on the Ruth set? | CARTUN::PAVLOCK | | Thu Mar 05 1992 16:51 | 6 |
| More on the Ruth set:
Will it be a set or in wax packs and you make a set?
Regards,
Denny
|
| 396.10 | Please, no gloss coating | 6219::CHOY | | Thu Mar 05 1992 18:53 | 3 |
| That Ruth set would be nicer, IMO, if it did NOT use gloss/UV/tiffany
coating. Old pictures/players and super-duper coating do not seem a
good combination to me.

|
| 396.12 | More info | ASDS::KELLY | | Mon Mar 09 1992 14:28 | 7 |
| The Ruth set will come in wax. They won't say regarding a factory
set. It probably will be out later in the year.
re LP's from Classic draft picks
Supposedly the Autographs and LP 8 the gold card are the most rare.
then the remainder of the LP's.

| 396.13 | the real thing | FRETZ::HEISER | maranatha | Wed Mar 18 1992 17:37 | 4 |
| Are these factory printed autographs or hand-written? How does a
hand-written autograph affect the value of a card?

| re .13
After terrible luck getting autographs, my luck has changed. I even
have some doubles. The cards from conlon and classic are hand signed by
the athelete.

Saw a Montana auto. at a show this weekend ($75). Is this the going
price? I thought $25-$30 would be more like it.
