If you come across another one let me know! I bought a Mickey Cochrane signed postcard and it is in the process of being made into a card through Leaf Executive Cuts (it will be a 1/1). I have been looking for a Harry Heilmann, Sam Crawford, and Schoolboy Rowe.

I got a big one in today! I purchased a signature certified by PSA and sent it in to Leaf through their Leaf Executive Cuts program. I was very impressed by how it turned out! I would have loved one with his picture on it, but those were almost $4000 on ebay. This whole thing only cost me $360. Not too shabby in my opinion!

Mickey Cochrane played catcher for Detroit from 1934-1937. He carried a .320 average over his 13 year career (9 years with the Philadelphia Athletics). He was a 2-time MVP, winning one of them while playing for Detroit in 1934. He was also a 2-time All-Star with Detroit in 1934-1935. In 1935 he helped lead Detroit in winning their first World Series Championship. He was inducted to the Hall of Fame in 1947. Cochrane died in 1962.

Here are my latest pickups for the Detroit Tigers autograph PC:

The Jeremy Bonderman "Bondo" is from fellow Blowout member Weedyalan! Thanks Jeff!

A little history for you young collectors (and probably most of the older collectors too!):

Doug Bair played for Detroit from 1983-1985. He pitched for the Tigers during their 1984 World Championship. He had a career ERA of 3.63 while playing for 7 different teams.

Dale Alexander nicknamed "Moose" played for Detroit from 1929-1932 at first base. He lead the league in hits in 1929 and was the Batting Champion in 1932 with an average of .372. He had a career batting average of .331. His career was cut short due to a leg injury.

2012 World Series: Detroit Tigers vs. San Francisco Giants......bump

[bd3d86]

Time to show off the new additons from over the last month. Not too much, but a few new names.

Both of these came from Blowout members:

2012 Bowman Chrome Nick Castellanos on card
2012 Bowman Chrome Avisail Garcia on card



Daryl Patterson was a pitcher for Detroit from 1968-1971 and was a member of the 1968 World Championship team.

Larry Sherry was a pitcher for Detroit from 1964-1967. He pitched for 11 years with the Tigers, Dodgers, Astros, and Angels.

I also picked up the Ty Cobb for a decent price and wanted to add a bat relic card to my collection.

Yeah, I have seen a few of them like that in the green pen. I agree it is pretty strange that was the color he signed checks with.
