I wanted to make some cut reprint cut autograph cards for myself. So I thought to myself, what would be a dream cut autograph card I’d Like to own. I came up with this as my first card:
I’ve always enjoyed the Goudey design and I figured that I could use this template for any sport. Although now thinking about it, I kind of wished that I added the baseball player silhouettes somewhere on the card. Maybe for my next one. Some other combos I was thinking:
- Griffey Jr. / Willie Mays
- Nolan Ryan / Tim Lincecum
- Derek Jeter / Joe DiMaggio
- Mantle / Maris
- Mantle / Williams
- Ruth / Cobb
- Cobb / Wagner
- Cy Young / Mathewson
- Gretzky / Lemieux
- Orr / Howe
- Walter Payton / Jim Brown
- Manning / Unitas
- Farve / Starr
- Luck / RGII
- Chamberlain / Russell
- Bird / Jordan
I don’t know those are just some that come to mind. Can you think of any that you would like to see. I’d like to turn this into a series. The design may change a bit but overall I like how it looks.
If I were wanting them for my collection, I’d want:
Stockton/Malone
Elway/McCaffrey
Luke Hochevar/Dexter Fowler (I know I’d be the only person happy to pull this one)
Great looking card, as always.
I think Clayton Kershaw/Jamie Moyer would be an awesome pairing. Oldest current pitcher/youngest current pitcher…
How did you make that bryce harper card
Nice concept – here’s some LA area suggestions:
Koufax/Drysdale – the classic pairing
Duke Snider/Matt Kemp – old school CF & current
Marcus Allen/Eric Dickerson – HOF runners made their mark in same town at same time
Magic Johnson/Kareem Abdul-Jabbar – another classic pair
Rogie Vachon/Jonathan Quick – honoring the new Stanley Cup champs
