Hall of Famers' signed rookie (and Pre-Rookie) cards
This isn't so much a project I'm trying to complete as it's something I just like getting signed. I know I'll never be able to afford a lot of them so I'm just getting whatever I can done at an affordable rate. Fortunately, it's something that's coming along nicely and I'm always looking to add more any time I can find the card for under $10 along with a signing fee of $10 or less.
The Halls of Fame I am using to get listed here are the generally-accepted top Halls of Fame for each sport in the US: Cooperstown, NY for baseball; Canton, OH for football; Springfield, MA for basketball; Toronto, ON for hockey; Frisco, TX for soccer; and Daytona Beach, FL (Motorsports) and Charlotte, NC (NASCAR) for racing.
