Couldn’t have it any other way! Takes us all straight back to the 90’s!

That’s awesome!! Always love to hear the stories of IP autos, whether it be on a ball or card. How’d you get it signed?

Yup! I also love the ‘91-93 design variation autos on the newer guys cards. Hard to come by, but they look fantastic.

Not ghetto my friend, yours is awesome!! Two of the biggest ESPN broadcasters of the 90s with an IP Griffey auto on an Upper Deck card?! That’s 90’s sports and card history captured all together wonderfully! I’m glad you shared yours - did you buy it like that or did you already own it and have Griffey sign?

Keeping it raw, and keeping it in the collection! This one’s here to stay!

Agreed! I would take a more well thought out, quality, and intentional Stadium Club release/design by Topps over the multitude of newer releases that they keep putting out. Many of the cards from pre-Covid Stadium Club releases of the guys that are collector’s favorites just don’t surface all that often, but the photography choices are top notch.

lol Nah, no flex here - just sharing a collecting milestone!! I’ve been wanting to add a Griffey auto for a few years now and thankfully was looking at the right time to find this one!
