2004 Donruss World Series Playoffs Souvenirs - Card features Jeff Kent of the San Fransico Giants and a piece of a ball used during Game 3 of the 2002 World Series between the Anaheim Angels and the San Fransico Giants. It is numbered on the back 016/100. I picked this up on ebay a few years ago. I love game specific game-used cards and thought that this was an awesome card. I love the fact that it has part of the stitching on it.
2001 Leaf Rookies & Stars Great American Treasures Magglio Ordonez All-Star Game-Worn Hat - This insert set features some pretty amazing stuff. This is just about the only card from the set that I could afford. I picked it up on ebay a few years back. This card features a piece of the hat that Magglio Ordonex wore during the 2000 All-Star Game.

I'm also fond of game-used cards that can be tied to a specific event. I don't think I've ever seen a game-used baseball relic before, though.
ReplyDeleteWhoa. So they cut up a hat Magglio had autographed to make the card?!? That's nuts.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of knowing the exact event and date that the Ordonez hat was worn. But CC is right - that hat was autographed. How could they cut it up?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if part of the Magglio hat auto ended up in a card too. That would be sweet.
ReplyDeleteThat Kent card is one of the coolest game used cards I've seen. A World Series ball. Pretty amazing. Do you remember about how much it cost?
I can already see the ebay seller that pulls part of the autograph on the brim and lists it as a 1/1.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards.
