A Kila Trade (Now With Pictures of Men!)

I have very few card collections given my limited resources and space, but I did decide some time ago to begin collecting on-card Royals autographs. It’s been a blast so far trying to track these things down and this is the latest addition to my collection. To view the cards currently in the collection, take a look at the Gallery or the other posts in this series. I’m working on getting a legit want list together on my trade page but, in the meantime, if you have any on-card Royals autos that it looks like I don’t have, don’t hesitate to drop me a line!

Are there variations on this? I know nothing about this set.

About half a million years ago, I started a trade with Dennis from Pictures of Men. It involved a Roy Halladay All-Star relic from 2010 Topps Update. In exchange, Kila here showed up on my doorstep. The delay in making the trade a reality was all mine, as was the delay in thanking him for a great trade! I sent along pretty much every Blue Jay I had in my house and, if you do a trade with me, I promise to do the same! Unless, of course, you don’t want partial 1981 Fleer team sets in which case I’m not sure what you’re reading this blog because that’s pretty much the timbre of things here. But seriously, let’s trade!

Thanks again Dennis- now someone just has to tell me if there are other versions of these autos I need to look out for. Kila’s slowed down considerably since that one good game he had a couple weeks back and his cards are dropping to reasonable levels again. I’d do a Sweet Caporal version of this if it existed. A framed mini rainbow… a boy can dream.
