I expect this to change in the coming months and years, but right now, an absurd amount of my Ty Hensley collection features autographed cards. As I write this, I have 32 different Hensley cards. Of those, 11 are autographed. That's over 1/3rd of the cards in my PC.
It'll be impossible to keep this rate going as I grab more and more base and parallels of Ty, but for now, I'm having a blast picking up new autos. I can get most for less than $5 shipped, and really am enjoying surfing the web to find new (affordable) Hensley autos that I don't have.
Of those, many of them are from Leaf and Panini. I snagged this Leaf Draft Refractor (not sure if that's the term Leaf uses) #'d 03/99 as my latest.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
Awesome....it is fun to accumulate autos when they are that cheap. Pirate autos were like that in the mid 2000's. I can't really do that anymore.
