Today I received a Hall of Fame plaque postcard from Jim Rice. I had sent it to him along with his required fee and got it back signed perfectly.

A Slice of Piazza
Today I received some items I am very excited to add to my collection. I had a couple baseballs in my collection signed by Mike Piazza but that was it. When I saw he was doing a private signing, I knew I had to send in some items. So, I chose to send in some Sports Illustrated magazines. I sent in five magazines and received them back today. One got completely smudged so Chris R (rifon on CN) provided a refund on it. The others are:
07.05.1993
04.04.1994
08.21.2000
10.23.2000
I am really excited to have these signed. I look forward to sending more in next time Mike has a signing.
Today, Bud is my Bud
Today I received a pair of Hall of Fame postcards I sent to Bud Selig. I had sent one to him a while ago and it got smeared in transit so I sent it back to him along with a pair of postcards asking him to sign them. He did and returned my donation.
I Am Hereby Circled
Bert Blyleven had a shtick when he was broadcasting Twins games that he would use the telestrator to circle Twins fans who went to road games. It lead to a lot of “Circle Me Bert” signs at the ballparks. Today I received the 2020 Allen & Ginter card signed by him. He included a note with a smiley face too.
