Chris ByrneHoly Grail Card(s)
I cannot narrow it down, but I would like to get all the PW cards from the 3 season of Smallville.
I am getting there, slowly!

CordeliaChase_FanI have/had several "holy grail" cards.
Some I have, some I don't.
Want and now have:
A7. Charisma Carpenter as Cordelia Chase from Angel season 2.
A24. Eliza Dushku as Faith from Angel season 4.
Want, but do NOT have:
A3. Alyson Hannigan as Willow Rosenberg from Buffy season 1.
If Alyson ever signs for a Buffy or Angel set again, this will fall off my holy grail list, i believe.
A5. Charisma Carpenter as Cordelia Chase from Buffy season 2.
I adore Charisma and want both of her autos, so it's one down.....

Well with Inkworks doing a Veronica Mars set there is a chance there could be a Charisma and/or Alyson autograph in it. I'm not sure if that would be good news or bad news for you.
Personally I'm hoping for both.

CordeliaChase_FanThe fact that Inkworks is doing a Mars set is awesome.....I actually don't watch the show much, but would buy the cards if we got some really good signers, I noticed the other thread where people put up their auto wish lists and there are some good actors on there.
Alyson Hannigan
Charisma Carpenter
Lisa Rinna (for my hehe, Melrose Place actors set, which already has Heather Locklear and Alyssa Milano...LOL)
Harry Hamlin
Steve Guttenberg
Good stuff..
Val
I would totally chase those down.

JessicaI have a new holy grail - Serenity A1 of Nathan Fillion. He's my new boyfriend, so I gotta have his auto! (Yes, I know he's not really mine, but it's nice to dream isn't it?)

I haven't had much luck myself, although I did get the Van Helsing Dracula's Bride costume card!

Since Sept 05 I purchased a Farscape A1, so that's off my list, but still have loads of sketches on my list along with all the autos from Farscape TTW (especially the DA1)...

Cards of "Holy Grail" status don't come along very often, the only one in the last few years for me was the Veronica Mars Kristen Bell autograph which I thankfully pulled from one of my boxes.

dmatsudaMy Holy Grail Cards:
#1 - Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 2 - Charisma Carpenter Autograph (Full signature version)
#2 - Buffy the Vampire Slayer Big Bads PW2
#3 - Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 1 - Alyson Hannigan Autograph
#4 - Lost in Space: The Movie Lacey Chabert Autograph
My current (and long-standing) Holy Grails are as follows in order:
1.) Goldeneye - Binder
2.) Bond Connoisseur Collection Vol.2 - Platinum G2
3.) Bond Connoisseur Collection Vol.3 - Platinum G1
4.) Danegrous Liaisons - Famke Janssen autograph
5.) The Quotable James Bond - WA21 Cary Lowell autograph
6.) James Bond Series 1 & 2 - Binder (by Eclipse)
7.) Bond Connoisseur Collection - Uncut Platinum Sheet G1-G3
8.) Bond Connoisseur Collection - Uncut Goldworks Sheet G1-G3
9.) Bond 40th Anniversary - Unredeemed "D" game card
10.) Connoisseur Collection Vol.2 - A MINT, un-folded sell sheet
11.) The World Is Not Enough - R1 Unused auto redemption cards for Llewelyn, Bond & Goldie
12.) Women of Bond (Widevision) - Unused auto redemption cards for Munro, Maxwell, Chiles, Eaton & Wood
13.) X-Files Season 9 - Robert Patrick autograph
14.) Batman Begins - Liam Neeson auto
As can be seen that would be one expensive list to obtain (in the £2,000 region) ever wonder why we call these things 'grails'?
On a happier note as I mentined earlier in this thread I desperately wanted a Goldeneye numbered promo and found one for £20 as Darren at Cards Inc had one in by fluke a couple of years back. I also craved for any Gillian Anderson X-Files auto and was lucky enough to pull one from a single box last summer. But more recently I purchased the "Aston Martin Instant Winner" card from the Tomorrow Never Dies set by inkworks for less than half what I've seen it for. It was found 1:3,6000 packs, or 1 in every 1,000 boxes, or one in every 100 cases, so whips the rarity out of the likes of the ROTS Samuel L. Jackson auto or all the Gillain Anderson autos!
