I have a rule about patches like that. Even if I'm not a fan, and providing they aren't steroid guys, I try to scoop them up. A guy can sign countless auto's, but there's only so many significant patches produced for obvious reasons.
The Darvish I got courtesy of my man James (Ounagi), and the Stanton I broke out of a case. You couldn't ask for a better Stanton patch. At the time I had discussed my case break with a local guy and I remember him saying that it was rough that the Stanton was my best pull from the case. He didnt realize how much I liked Stanton, nor did he think he was going to be that good.
Yeah it is a great patch! Would look awesome sitting next to this! Haha

I had to go get a paper towel to wipe the drool off my chin after seeing that Cabrera
That Miggy's #'d /10, btw.

How so? I think Marquee was the odd man out as far as design. It didn't look like anything else Topps produced from it's base set down to it's Titanic Threads. If you want to see the same format, look at a 2013 Museum Collection jumbo jersey relic next to a 2013 Five Star jumbo jersey relic. Talk about ridiculous.

No, no. I would never do that. Get me some Stantons and maybe...

On a side note, I dont know if you've been following, but how good do the Marlins look right now? I am really excited for that franchise.

First of all, that Trout is beautiful. Congrats.
Second, on the whole Marquee becomes Museum question, read this: http://www.beckett.com/news/2011/11/firs...all-cards/
Third, that Trout is beautiful...
Trading for cut autos of baseball HOFers I don't have, autos of current and future Cleveland Guardians, and anything else that catches my eye!

I realize Topps stopped producing Marquee and then started producing Museum Collection. I disagreed with you saying they used the same format. I was referring to them not looking similar in my mind.
Thank you, btw. I like the Trout as well.
