Pistol Pete Cut auto
My dream has come true theyre finnally making a Pistol Pete cut auto in this years Press Pass Legends. Does anyone else think this will be one of the greatest basketball cards ever because now they might start making Wilt Chamberlains and other big name deceased players and coaches autos. Just my opinion.

I found this on beckett
"While cut signatures of deceased legends have become a regular inclusion in Baseball and Football product, there has still been only a literal handful inserted in modern basketball product.
2005-06's Greats of the Game product, issued by Upper Deck, includes four deceased legends autographs—Celtics point guard Andy Phillip, who passed away in 2001, NBL MVP Harry Buddy Jeanette, who passed away in 1998, NBA scoring machine George Yardly, who passed away in 2004, and player/brilliant post-war abc coach, William Red Holzman, who passed away in 1998. Each Greats of the Game Great Cuts card is limited to just three copies.
Press Pass will be adding to that list with the release of the January 24th product, Press Pass Legends, which is highlighted by the inclusion of the first-ever Pistol Pete Maravich cut-signature autograph. Press Pass' Nick Matijevich has confirmed that the company has obtained several Maravich cut-signatures that will appear in the product. Over the last decade or so, Pete Maravich signatures have been dwindling in supply and rising in value as collectors fight it out over the copies remaining on the open market. The Press Pass Maravich signature cards will picture The Pistol in his LSU jersey and the set will also include autographs from Larry Bird and Isiah Thomas, among others.
The 18-pack hobby boxes look to be stacked, as each boasts five autograph cards, three of them legends signatures, one game-used card and one sequentially numbered card in each pack. The Legends checklist includes both current NBA players such as Chris Paul, Adam Morrison and Sean May along with NBA and college greats such as Jerry West, Clyde Drexler, Pat Riley and David Robinson. "
Im so ready for this set.

Should be a nice set. The Pistol Pete auto though will be out of this world high at first.

That will be a sick card, I'm sure it will be a large chunk of change to buy it!!
I bid on a Letterman Jersey Patch card of his awhile ago, I think it sold for close to $900 or so (I stopped watching at $800 or so.)

Wow, I would definitely love to have a Pisto Pete Maravich Auto. I'm sure that card will be very nice looking. I may have to buy a box, so I have chance of pulling it.

Couldn't think of a Willy Wonka quote for this, so just don't bother buying a box, Charlie. I'm sure there will be a ton of people who buy multiple cases.
