Favre – Is it time to Buy?
Posted: October 6, 2009 in Brett Favre, Football Cards, Sports Collectors Daily
Brett Favre rookie cards were among the hottest in the marketplace in the mid-1990s. Then he approached the NFL’s touchdown pass record in 2007 and they spiked again, but a year in New York didn’t really impact sales much, but now that Favre has the Minnesota Vikings off to a 4-0 start and seems to have not lost a thing, is it time to buy? Check out Sports Collectors Daily’s Favre Rookie Card Resurgence.

There are plenty of scandals for baseball through the years but today is the day, October 1st, 90 years ago that one of the darkest days in baseball officially began.

A Piece of History – Aaron, Ruth, & Mays
Posted: September 29, 2009 in 500 HR Club, Baseball Cards, Upper Deck
(Beckett.com)
Is this really a 1999 Upper Deck Piece of History 500 Home Run Club card of Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, and Willie Mays? Well, according to Beckett they believe it is, “It was a new one on us, too. We’d never even heard of it until recently, when it was brought to our attention by a prominent East Coast dealer and that there were at least four of these cards in existence.”
The card is copyrighted with a 1999 copyright and has that same 1999 Upper Deck A Piece of History design, but Upper Deck didn’t include mention of this card in any sales material or press announcements back then, but Upper Deck officials have confirmed that the card is legitimate and Beckett Select is auctioning off one of just five known copies in existence. For more on this card, check out the story at Beckett.
