Upcoming 2012 Leaf Product Releases

In case you haven’t seen, Leaf plans to release some great looking products this year.  I’m looking forward to trying some.  Take a look…

U.S. Army All-American Football set

It looks like the metal theme has spread to the U.S. Army All-American set too.

Legends of Sport

These cards look quite nice judging by the sales sheet.  Lots of use of the color white, which really makes the autographs, photos, and designs standout.  Every card in the set is autographed and serial numbered to 50 or less.  There are (3) autographs per box.

Executive Collection

You don’t exactly buy boxes of Executive Collection, but I’m glad Leaf brought it back this year.  Executive Collection is unique where collectors get to build the set by submitting their certified autographs and having them turned into cut signatures.  Judging by past sales, collectors really enjoy them.  The Andrew Luck 2011 Executive Collection 1/1 autograph recently sold for $1,000.00.

Oval Office Cut Signature Edition

At $2,500.00+ for a box of cards, I probably won’t be trying Oval Office Cut Signature Edition.

Jimmy Rollins To Appear At Upcoming CSA Show

On November 11, 12, & 13 CSA (Collectors’ Showcase of America) will be holding one of their sports card & memorabilia shows at The Greater Philadelphia Expo Center at Oaks.  In addition to some old Colts and Eagles, Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins will be signing autographs on Saturday, the 12th, from 12:00pm-2:00pm.

This will be the first time I’ve attended this particular show.  From what I heard from other dealers at The Philly Show it should be really good.  The last Philly Show wasn’t the best in Valley Forge.  That’s why I thought I’d give this show a try.  The December Philly Show has a ton of Phillies coming like Ryan Howard, Shane Victorino, and Charlie Manuel.  I might go to that one, but I’m not sure yet.  Dealers have really been dropping from that show.
