Sketch cards, autographs etc?

Just looking to see if anyone else on here does.

If so...what sets do you collect etc?

My main focus is sketch cards of Hiro from Heroes series 1 and 2 and from time to time Ill have an artist draw one up.

2nd main focus is Sons of Anarchy. People who have autographs in card sets that have been in the tv show etc.

3rd is collecting stuff of ODB from TNA wrestling.

Last but not least is sometimes Ill get art drawn up and signed by celebs.

Just a sample-

Cool stuff. I collect some non sport cards but not on the level that you do. I'll buy a box or two of stuff I like and put the set with whatever inserts I get in a binder, but I don't look for specific inserts to buy. I like to get autos more than sketches, but sketches are great too. My cousin actually does a lot of sketch cards for many sets (his name is Ted Dastick Jr. http://tdastick.deviantart.com/) and he sets up a table at a lot of shows in the Philadelphia area. If there's a show he doesn't have a table at, we usually go anyway.

I've bought a few boxes of Heroes cards from almost every season and that last archives set they put out. Stuff I also buy is any James Bond stuff, Game of Thrones, Dexter, True Blood and Star Wars to name a few (I'm horrible about cards making it from the box to a binder, they're sitting all around my room).
 
I've got at least 4 or 5 complete sets of Marvel and X-Men cards at my mother's place, and recently completed (I think) the first series of the new Power Rangers Action Card Game.
 
I collect Pokemon cards. Have a couple Full Art cards (OG Zekrom, Reshiram, Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus) and a few Legend cards. One of my favorites is the oldie but goodie Ancient Mew. I also prefer almost card drawn by Kouki Saitou.

Had a bunch of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards way back when, but stopped collecting them around Legacy of Darkness.
 
I used to collect the FFXIII Triple Triad Cards as well as MTV animation trading cards. The MTV cards were Beavis and Butthead, Aeon Flux, The Brothers Grunt, The Head, and The Maxx. That's about it as far as non sports cards that I have ever collected. Of course that was ages ago. I did want to pick up the Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories cards, but that kind of fell off my radar when I couldn't find them in game stores.

I used to collect comic cards a lot, still have some of them somewhere I think. I remember loving the Marvel Masterpiece series, such great art on those cards.
 
I swear that Wolverine's claws change depending on who's drawing him. Sometimes they're flat blades, sometimes they're more like long pointed spikes with no edge, sometimes curved, sometimes more straight, always different. Then there were the bone claws, ugh.

I asked him, he said he knows you. Do you have something of his scanned that you can post? He shows me a majority of stuff he does but not everything.

He wasnt doing sketch cards at the time of Heroes being released so I never ran across anything of his to add to my collection.

[quote name='Mr Unoriginal']This is a serious question: Why would you ever want/need so many autographs of a single B-list celeb?[/QUOTE]

[quote name='PR Mega X']I dig some of those Domino pictures, but I'm with our Amish friend above -- that's a lot of autographs from one person...[/QUOTE]


Its a collectors thing I guess...One is a "base set" autograph, another is numbered, then there is the one with the "Stiflers Mom" variant signature.

When collecting Hiro cards were slow, Id fill that time up with others and she was one of those.
 
Few more misc pieces-
Artist Greg Harms and Ryan Alexander did this piece together-

Well I was walking through Target yesterday and saw Garbage Pail Kids are back (again), so yeah. I do collect non-sports cards, at least for now.

Decided to skip the randomness and buy last year's base set for 11 bucks on Ebay, I'll worry about chase cards later. Series 2 is on the shelves now. Still have all the ones I bought when they first brought them back 10 years ago, as well as all I had from the original run in the 80's.

For those that are SOA fans, Cryptozoic Entertainment snagged the liscense for SOA and will be doing a trading card set. Its based on seasons 1 through 4.

If its anything like their Walking Dead or Big Bang Theory releases, its gonna be expensive. If its closer to their Vampire Diaries set, I may have a shot at getting a full set. Theyre good at getting main signers so it should be interesting.

They also picked up the license for Breaking Bad, which I'm very much looking forward to! Ted is hoping to be doing sketches for Sons of Anarchy and Breaking Bad.
 
Never saw Breaking Bad but heard tons of good stuff.

If they do sketch cards for this, theyll go on the back burner for me and not a "must have" except for a possible couple of artist proofs.

Im hoping they do because that takes some heat off the pricing of the rest of the stuff for the case breakers. Guess it all breaks down as to wether or not who controls likeness rights etc.
 
This is very neat - I had heard of ACEOs in passing before but hadn't looked into them too much.

I don't have the budget to collect, but I love seeing what's been posted so far (from an aesthetic standpoint but also as an amateur artist). :D

I collect band/gaming posters when I can. Right now, as far as band posters go, I only have Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon and a poster I picked up at an Iron Maiden concert when they were on their Maiden England 2012 tour.

As far as gaming posters, I have Uncharted 3, MW3, and God of War: Ascension. I recently discovered that there is a Five Below in town and they have a bunch of posters. Once I scrap some money together, I'm gonna go get some.

on the left was done by keron grant, and on the right is mark hamill's autograph, got it at nycc 11', it was cool talking to him. Arkham city was coming out at the time we talked about that and met his wife
 
Killer stuff Shogun!

Really dig the Hamill. Hope he hits a con I can make it to so I can get my Joker piece signed.
 
I collect Variant Comic covers and autographed books. I'll have to remind myself to take pictures of them and post them one day.

i posted some of my variants on the pick ups theard, i know this is an art thread but if you want i can post my different variants here, also have some autograph books
 
Is it me or can people just draw better as time goes on? There are a ton of insane artists out there.

Also, this stuff is fascinating. I understand getting a piece or two to frame up for the man cave or whatever but collecting basically an unlimited amount of something so specific is wild. Everyone has their thing I guess!
