i don't know how realistic it is of me to think that i might one day have a jackie robinson and a roy campanella autographed card, but those are the only two current members of the dodger retired number club for whom i lack signed cards. i've shown tommy lasorda, duke snider, jim gilliam, don sutton, walt alston, and sandy koufax signed cards previously, and now, i have a 1993 nabisco don drysdale certified auto card
and a 1991 topps archives 1953 pee wee reese in person autographed card
to show.i am guessing that this is about as far as that collection will get.
here are some more (certified) dodger autos - a 2004 upper deck legends timeless teams ron cey card
and a dave lopes card from the same set
this tommy john sticker auto card
comes from 2005 donruss greats
and this eric gagne signed card
is from 2006 upper deck sp authentic.
i was very happy to pick up this last card - a 2014 panini immaculate collection steve garvey signed card
numbered to 49. it looks like he signed a piece from a watercoloring paper. it's nice. i'm pretty sure he tried to add his number 6 at the end (not an exclamation point), which in my mind should also be retired by the dodgers. however, i recognize my bias and after considering the fact that the yankees are running out of numbers, i think the dodgers' hall of fame requirement (except in the case of jim gilliam) is probably a pretty good one.
