Another for the PC - Alex Delvecchio Beehive Series 2 Error

A while ago I shared my first beehive pick up ever. Then a couple months later I was able to land my second and third which leaves me with just one ultra rare Delvecchio Beehive missing. 

This is the second of two Delvecchios from the Series 2 release of Beehive photos. This one is a little more rare based on what I can tell, but I have no idea of its value or rarity. I was able to land it for what I felt it was worth and as you can see, it incorrectly lists Alex's name as Bill. Based on the photo, I would say it was taken between 51-55 just based on the appearance of how old Alex looks. However, again I am just guessing here.

I really like the look of the photo, just a simple still shot. The photo itself is in amazing shape and a good piece in my collection.

  2. I have a Delvecchio mini auto from the 2011 Parkhurst Champions set, if you're interested. Besides San Diego Padres, I collect anything San Diego hockey (Gulls, Mariners), and then Blackhawks.

    1. I am very interested. Drop me a line at forestrydave at hotmail dot com and we can see if I have anything that interests you. I don't have much in the way of San Diego Hockey really but I do have lots of Hawks stuff.

  3. That's the photo used on his RC, so it has to be 1950-51, pretty well.

    1. Good point, but my only thought is that angle is a little different on the rookie card pose so I wasn't sure if they were the exact same photo or just around that day/time period
