Just saw the Aikman collection get in with a low %, so I'll try mine. I collect Brian Leonard, mainly non-1/1 cards.
Here are my stats:
Non 1/1 Cards: 223/662 33.7%
Autographs: 107/387 27.6%
Game Used/Jerseys: 85/315 27%
Numbered Cards: 156
Numbered to 100 or less: 117
Numbered to 50 or less: 87
Numbered to 25 or less: 58
Numbered to 1- 4
Oddball Items-3 (1 Replica Jersey, 1 pair game used gloves, 1 autographed panel ball)
Additional links or pictures:

Any additional information that sets your collection apart:
Leonard is not a well known player, so his stuff does not come up very often, it's been very tough to put this collection together.
Plus, I'm 17 years old.

Then how did the Troy Aikman collection get in? They have below the required numbers for entry.

I didn't approve that one, but he probably met one of the exceptions in that thread.

I figured I would give this a try. My collection is very specific.

My main collection is of Florida State University. I only collect if they are in FSU uniform though. Because of this there really isn't a way to tell what % of the cards I have because there isn't a way to track what cards feature the players in uniform. Mostly I have to scour the new release sets, especially the early ones, and see if they feature college uniforms. Then its a hunt for which players will be featured in that particular set.

It's only recently, with the advent of SAGE and Press Pass that the number of Seminole uniform autos has increased. I'd like to think that I own most of the Seminole autographs and their SP variations. I am constantly checking photobuckets and ebay for items that I don't know about.

In addition to the Autos, GU, and cards I have a collection of memorabilia. I have even turned a room of my house into a showcase for my memorabilia and collection. The walls are even painted garnet (team colors).

My memorabilia collection includes...
05 team baseball signed by all players and coaches
Throwback Mini Helmet signed by Bowden
Mini helmet signed by 04 offense
Mini helmet signed by 04 running backs
Mini basketball signed by 04 women's team
04 poster signed by mens basketball team
Seminoles limited edition cereal box
Bowden limited edition bobblehead 14/250
5x7 signed by Claudius Osei
5x7 signed by Bryant McFadden
5x7 signed by Alex Barron
8x10 signed by Bobby Bowden for me and 2 more for each of my sons
8x10 signed by Leonard Hamilton

and my prized possession
a game worn jersey worn by Bo Reliford in the 2008 "blackout game" against Boston College

I even got Chief Osceola tattooed on my leg. My entire house is decked out in Noles gear from by bbq grill out back to the flags out front.

I have a link to my photobucket where I have some pictures of my collection.

I have a few problems with meeting the criteria for SCF Super Collector though and not sure if there are exemptions. Here they are




1st Requirement- Percentage Owned

I'm unable to give any kind of representation to the percentage owned as there is no way to tell exactly how many items are out there. I do have an updated link to my current collection.

2nd Requirement- Auto/GU Owned

Again not sure how many are out there but I can tell you this much.

Currently I have over 65 Autographs (not including dups)
Currently I have over 25 Game Used (not including dups)

All have player in FSU uniform. All Game Used are of FSU uniform.

3rd Requirement- Rookies Owned

Because they are all in college uniform virtually my entire collection is rookie cards.

4th Requirement- Not too much Base Owned

Considering the limited scope of what I'm looking for the majority of my collection is rookie cards or inserts.

5th Requirement- Proof

I have included a link to my photobucket with some sample scans. Also I have an extensive list to track my collection so I know what I need. That link is at the end of this message.

6th Requirement- Post Count

I don't have the necessary 300 posts. I have been an active member since 2007, I just don't post alot. I mostly communicate through PMs to negotiate trade and very good feedback.

I just wanted to get your opinion. I would really like to have the super collector badge to draw more attention to my collection and hopefully get more items that I didn't know I needed.

Let me know what you think.

ChillyDoggy,

I put forward a request to attain super collector status of one Barry Sanders. I am applying under Exception #3: High-End Collector Exception. If you do not collect all cards of a certain player and maybe just collect Autos or Patches of a certain player, we will allow those with a Book Value of $15,000+ (with at least 100 Cards of that Specific Player Minimum). 1/1's and no book value cards can act as $bv50, but no more. Provide info. While we do not see this as a true Super Collector by our definition, we realize everyone collects differet things for different reasons.

Here is the link in our football forums' show and tell thread:

Here is the link to my photobucket account:
http://s675.photobucket.com/albums/vv114/George1980/

I have an excel spreadsheet, though not extensive, with 119 cards totalling $14,567.00, and also within those cards; there are a total of 24 not booking due to scarcity, which criteria says that they are "...valued at 50.00" therefore totalling another $1,200.00 with a final amount of $15,767.00. If this spreadsheet is needed, please advise, so I can PM you the list. Also, if you need me to add more cards; I can, so just let me know.

Thank you for your time and due diligence.

Thanks for the entries guys, I will get to you all soon, I hope. Got a lot going on right now, but if not before, this weekend for sure. :)

I'll throw my Devery Henderson PC up for consideration.

I started out only collecting his rookie year cards from 2004 so I had to play some catchup to be relevant in this. Devery is the only Saints player I have bothered to acquire anything of that was not rookie year released.

To roll through the requirements:

1st Requirement- Percentage Owned
At this time he has 656 total card released.

My year by year breakdown is as follows:

2004 Cards 273/312 Total 273/280 non 1/1’s
2005 Cards 10/27 Total 10/19 non 1/1’s
2006 Cards 31/48 Total 31/41 non 1/1’s
2007 Cards 55/161 Total 55/135 non 1/1’s
2008 Cards 8/38 Total 8/35 non 1/1’s
2009 Cards 16/70 Total 16/52 non 1/1’s

Complete Stats: 393/656 Total Cards = 60% complete
393/562 non 1/1’s = 70% complete

These stats taken into account all of the various color versions of plates as well.

2nd Requirement- Auto/GU Owned
I have not fully calculated this requirement but my focus has always been the auto, jersey, patch cards so I am certain I exceed this statistic.

3rd Requirement- Rookies Owned
Well beyond the 60 rookies.

4th Requirement- Not too much Base Owned
Base cards probably comprise about 15-20% of the collection if that

5th Requirement- Proof
Photobucket link with collection seperated by year of release to the left:

6th Requirement- Post Count
Done

Thanks for the consideration.
