Default No More Jim Thorpe?

SOOOO.... are they out of Jim Thorpe memorabilia?

It seems like you saw a bunch in 2006 and 2007 products, and NONE since then....

I've always dreamed of hitting a Thorpe GU card, and want to know whats up with that

Thanks

They might be holding some back. I know they had a sweater that DLP started using back in 2003 and that last a few years. You never know. They did the same thing with Sid Luckman. 2007 he was in everything. Now nothing until NT comes out.

I could see them saving them only for the high-end products or something like that.

related to the subject - I had a customer pull a 1/1 Thorpe game used piece from one of my boxes at show yesterday out of 2007 limited. Also pulled a Peterson auto /25 from the same box. Box was "hot" with every card being a GU or 1/1. Pretty sick. He told me he would post images on here. Still waiting . . . . . .
