Sports Collecting Holy Grail

We all have it, we all chase it, and we all look forward to the day when it's done - a Sports Collecting Holy Grail.

- What is your Sports collecting Holy Grail?
- How long have you coveted it?
- Did you ever get it?

My Sports Collecting Holy Grail was completed this week. I have been working on this autograph piece for years. The drive to accomplish this has been been fueled by my passion for a team and a distinct moment of my childhood. I'll post more information about it later this week.

mine was a 1971 topps dick allen. #650, i believe. the last card i needed to finish my dodger team sets from 1970 on. i started looking for it in 1980 and finally found it in 1992. i was shaking, literally, when i saw it in the case at the hobby shop.
