Thanks all, it was tough deciding on favorites, I think Ewings total collection is pretty unique. He is a hard to find autographer and IMO, doesn't have that many cards despite being in the league for so long. I mean Shaq is what, 6-7 years behind him and has well over 2000, Nique and others who came in the same time have lots of autos out there, etc.

Regardless, definately miss watching him play and with the way the league has changed, may never see any like him and Hakeem again.

Here is a non-card addition I have. The Knicks played the Cavs at the Civic Arena (Pittsburgh) in 1989 on my birthday, so I got a chance to go. After the game, we made our way to the player exit and he came out. Just so happens he was staying at the hotel where we parked the car. My two friends, me, Pat and his bodyguard walked a good 1/2 mile or so and chatted about different things. He was nice, but didn't say much, I remember asking him about Mourning and how he (Ewing) influenced him, that is about it. Anyways, got his auto on the program cover.

Just got my 3rd auto in the mail today, this may be my favorite to date, very nice auto except for a little smear, and I like the photo. Now if I could just find that 1992-93 Hoops Ultimate Game autograph, I'll be set in this department for awhile.

Congrats on the status!!!

Ewing is My ALL-TIME favorite player. Being a Knicks fan my entire life he provided me with so many great memories.

I also had the fortune of meeting him in Orlando last year. I was out at a bar drinking a beer with a few friends and Ewing walks right in front of me and I was like.. whoa... thats Ewing.. he was with a bunch of NBA players in the VIP area... He turned me down for a picture (understandably...it was crowded) but it was still great to just let him know i was a huge fan!!!

Got lucky and found it on eBay, with make an offer. So got it just above book value. Still have the one u traded me, but I guess the actual patches are numbered, so I have the one from u as the standard GU, kinda nice.
