Awwww gee thanks I'm glad you like that one Commish!

I've got a signed, green printing plate Al Kaline from 2020. Pulled it from a pack not long after he passed away.

I have a 1983 OPC Burt Hooten with a paper punch hole in it put there by my brother or I which subsequently has been ripped in half and taped back together by my 7 year old. Definitely a 1/1. May have to get the next generation to write that on there specifically.

This Spectra 1/1 I got in the last few months (and scanned to the site) of one of my childhood sports heroes (I went to Super Bowl XXVI with my dad as a 9 year old). Paid a decent amount for this card (one of a handful of cards I've paid over $100 for). Not really a huge fan of  over-parralelization of trading cards, but I am now two short of the rainbow on this one (missing /4 and /10, actually have the /2 as well). 

I have pulled 3 printing plates and 1 buyback in my life, but since they are all of teams I don't root for I don't think I would have a favorite of them.

Any 1/1 of a Husker player would be my favorite.

I'm just to cheap to pay the prices they want for 1/1s

I think that I have only pulled a 1/1 from a pack myself and the rest I have I got from Ebay. The one I got myself is a mini printing plate of Stephen Drew from 2015 Allen & Ginter. I suppose that has to be my favorite.

First one we ever got:

Unfortunate UER (wrong photo on the back), but we got this on ebay in 1998 or 1999.

mine is my seventh grade class photo. have not had luck finding the set as of yet. go pirates.

I have only pulled a 1/1 card one time.  Unfortunately it was a mini card from Allen and Ginter.  I don't add mini cards to my collection as I only collect standard sized cards.  This is mostly due to storage OCD tendancies.  I think it had a sportscaster on it if I remember correctly.  I did however trade it to another member here for a Luis Gonzalez MEM card.  I think I had thrown in a couple mini SPs and mini RCs as well.
