I did see that REA Hamilton with Bender and Young and did not bid or pay attention. What a idiot that was a steal. Do you know what auction house sold it again for 10,000. Thanks Jim

I got Todd Helton many times at Coors Field early 2000s.Usually,it was before games,he came over often but it was just th because there were many people. I caught him walking into the stadium or a day with less than 10 people.Then he signed a full autograph.He was always a 1 per signer even if alone with him. He was an easy autograph to obtain at Coors Field,just hope you could get the more full autograph!

I have never been trolled so much as waiting for the George Kell video to drop. If it is a bandwidth issue, I can step in as a “guest host” for that one. My creds include: having owned ~100 George Kell autos; observed him sign multiple times, including standing/walking and seated, still know his home addy for TTM (although this post would get deleted by KZbin if I typed it), and I know his middle name. Additionally, the review video I created last summer for our new golf cart got more than 8,900 views (Altitude Capitalist - 2023 Evolution Forester 4 Plus review), so I probably cannot make the Kell video go viral, but can probably get a lot of eyeballs. But please, if you don’t take me up on this get the Kell video posted ASAP - no more distractions!!

Agree with you as I watched his whole career as a season ticket holder. I have a gorgeous auto on the 1998 All Star ball he signed just after he hit for the cycle.probably around 2000. He was signing free at a Verizon store and he really took his time signing when I told him I watched him hit the cycle

Does anyone know the economics of these massive autograph signing events. Are players paid a flat fee for their time? Do players set the prices and get a piece of the action? Who decides a guy gets more for affording his auto to one type of item compared to another? How does this work!

I saw the prices for Cal it is astronomical - really all of these prices were sky high. Was there a line of people paying that kind of $ for Ripken? What was demand like at these prices? And there was a strange note for cal that he would not pose for a picture with you. Did not see that note with the others. His middle name is Edwin.

Skipped this video when it dropped, figured I'd never need it. Picked up a 1946 Buffalo Bisons team-signed ball yesterday at a flea market for $10. Was in a crate with loose junk wax cards and 1991 UD packs he wanted $3 each for. Gabby Hartnett (manager) auto next to the International League logo. Looks good! Thanks Frank, always helpful.
