Jed Ortmeyer

hockey card
Jed Ortmeyer

Split the 2011-12 season between the Minnesota Wild and the Houston Aeros (AHL).

Autographed card purchased at a card show back in June.

I totally forgot that I had this card. I bought it a while back, but misplaced it until recently.

I found it at a card show in June for the princely sum of twenty-five cents. The dealer actually had 5 autographed copies of this exact card, but I figured one Jed Ortmeyer autographed rookie card was all I really needed.

What I found particularly humorous about this card is that it included a small photograph of Ortmeyer signing these cards:

As you can see, this card was clearly signed in black Sharpie marker, and not some cheap off-brand black marker. The guy who took this photo even signed his own name on the back. This is definitely one of the strangest--and cheapest--autograph cards I ever purchased.
