Population ReportPSA reports total population of two cards only Hall of Fame Information (From Hoophall.com)A fourth round draft pick out of Norfolk State, Bobby Dandridge joined the Milwaukee Bucks in 1969. The timing was perfect. Milwaukee, an expansion franchise in only its second year of operation, also drafted UCLA’s Lew Alcindor that year. The following season, the Bucks added Oscar Robertson in order to compete for the NBA championship. The plan worked. The Bucks, led by Alcindor, Robertson, and Dandridge, won the title in 1971 in a four-game sweep of the Washington Bullets. Dandridge nearly averaged a double-double for the series. Seven years later, Bobby D was back in the NBA Finals, this time playing for the Washington Bullets in a series that would go to seven games. Dandridge averaged 20 points per contest and pulled down seven rebounds playing alongside the great Elvin Hayes and the incomparable Wes Unseld. Dandridge was a complete player, filling the small forward role in an era that was dominated by big men. The four-time NBA All-Star was named All-NBA Second Team and All-Defensive First Team in 1979. Building An NBA HOF Autographed Card Collection? / About Doctor LeapBecause the NBA Hall of Fame was not created until 1959, unlike MLB, collectors are able to find modern cards that were designed, autographed, and certified by major card designers. Based on my research, there are only two HOF players that played in the NBA, that do not have a modern-day autographed card that was designed specifically to be autographed. So, collectors can build a legacy collection of modern cards that feature the autograph of NBA HOF players. Moreover a collection of this type can grow in size and importance over time as new members are elected each year. In addition to being autographed, most of the cards I offer will have some other feature: limited numbering, low population, or a game worn uniform patch. As an avid collector I find the modern methods employed by card designers similar to the high-end art market - they create value by creating limited runs of cards. Most of the cards I sell will have graded populations of less than 10. Compare that to the Jordan Fleer #57 rookie card that PSA reports a graded inventory of nearly 25,000 (as of Feb 2023). In addition, these unique pieces of sports memorabilia are designed on high-end card stock, and the autographs are supervised and authenticated. More important for me as a collector, they’re signed in a way that’s attractive versus taking a card to a show, having it signed, which is typically done in some type of imperfect way that conflicts with the image on the card. Some of the cards I offer are from players that are not in the Hall of Fame yet but are projected by basketball-reference.com to be future first-ballot members. If this is something you’re interested in – please continue to check my inventory as I constantly add new cards. Feel free to message me with any questions. I love to discuss the cards I offer. Inventory / eBay VaultI have multiple cards for sale. Some are currently in the eBay vault. My vault cards are priced $400 and up – because they are in the eBay vault, this is the most secure card transaction you can make. All my cards for sale under $400 are in my possession, would be shipped by me, but are covered by eBay’s Authenticity Guarantee. Shipping / UPS / PackagingI create UPS label & tracking number the same day of purchase - most of the time the card will be dropped off at a UPS shipping center the same day as purchased - but always the very next morning, including Sunday (My local UPS store is open on Sunday). As noted in my feedback, I package very well, shipped in double bubble mailers and protected with cardboard. Shipping is $7, but you get a tracking number, insurance, and high quality packaging to make sure the card arrives in good condition. Most of my cards are rare and hard to find, so making sure they get to the buyer in good condition is a high priority.
