Rodney's Cardboard:2020 Illusions Mirage Autographs

Usually I show off each of these autographs in separate posts, but this time I figured nah. They all came from the same person, same trade, etc.

That same trade and same person, well it's no other than Shane from Cheap Wax Wednesday fame.

Shane and I have been doing massive trades for 9 years now. He was one of the first people I met when I joined the online and our friendship has grown over the years.

He saw my need for the Illusions autographs of Rodney and was more than happy to help me in my chase.






The three parallels above are the Gold /25, Black /50 and the Red /75. The only difference in each card is the color of the word Mirage at the top.

With those three adds, I now have 4 out of the 6 out there. Still need the green /10 and the purple 1/1. Who knows when those will or will not pop up.

Thanks to Shane for the help on these and stay tuned for rest of my trade with him. Once again, it was another massive one so lots of fun stuff to see.

If any of you see the last two I need somewhere don't hesitate to message me or email me. Thanks!

Rodney's Cardboard:2020 Illusions Mirage Base Autograph

Panini threw yet another surprise at me in 2020 by following up their 2019 Panini Illusions Rodney Hampton inclusions with a 2020 inclusion as well.

I am still chasing last years 1/1 from Illusions which feels like it will never be found like other Rodney Hampton 1/1 autographs I am still waiting on.

I did however get a big jump on this years Illusions autographs. There are 6 overall to get and I have already narrowed it to only two more I need which is the /10 and the /1.

I absolutely fell for this design right off as soon as I saw them. Not only is it a fun, yet frustrating chase, at least the cards look nice as well.

This is the base autograph which is /99.

And for the first time I have ever seen.....a real card back on these!!! Holy smokes! This one at least doesn't have a boring back.

This is just one of the four I will be showing off. Hopefully before I get to the others to show off on here I will have a chance to find the last two, it's doubtful but I am hopeful.

Hope everyone has a great Sunday!
