Been looking for a hard signed Rose card for a while and stumbled on this product. $50 US got me a nice magenta signed black printing plate /1. Guy belongs in the hall of fame, he should be recognized for his on field accomplishments, which this set highlights quite nicely.

All autos are on card which is a selling point for me, I know I lucked out by pulling an auto’s printing plate but from what I have seen, even pulling a common /30 is still nice.

This product is underrated and seems to flown under the radar.

IF you’re rating this product based on the individual, in comparing him to one of MLB’s quiet heroes, you’ll do a disservice. Truthfully, Pete Rose is OUT of baseball because of…Pete Rose. Still, it’s nice to pay some homage to a ballplayer who gave 110% every game, and the man does have the most games played, most at-bats, and most base hits (4,256) in MLB History. Doesn’t that account for something positive, regardless of what a few bitter old ballplayers think? Good product, and Mr. Rose needs to get HIS act together, too.
