Today I received a pair of packages I mailed out for the fun of it. It was a nice mail day. The first was a Hall of Fame postcard of Mike Mussina. Mike does not disappoint as long as you send a nominal fee. The other was an 8×10 photo from Don Larsen of the first pitch of his 1956 World Series Perfect Game. He signed it “1956 WS PG 10-8-56”. I normally do not collect photos but this was a cool picture of a cool moment in baseball history.

Fabulous Fisk
Today I received an awesome return of a pair of Sports Illustrated magazines from 9/24/2018 from Carlton Fisk. The cover features Bucky Dent hitting his famous home run off the Red Sox. The photo shows Don Denkinger, Bucky Dent, Carlton Fisk, and Mike Torrez. I have it signed by everyone but Torrez now. Carlton signed it perfectly for a nice donation to his favorite charity, The Cancer Support Center. I am excited to have a pair of magazines almost done by all four of the players on the cover!
Honk The Horne
Today I received a pair of Legendary Voices signature cards signed by Dave Van Horne. Dave signed them in black Sharpie and they look great!
Awesome Announcers!
Today I received a pair of signature cards from a pair of Hall of Fame radio broadcasters. Marty Brennaman, who announced his retirement at the end of the year, is a broadcaster for the Cincinnati Reds. Marty signed a pair of cards with HOF 2000. The other broadcaster is Eric Nadal. Eric broadcasts for the Texas Rangers and he signed both his cards with HOF ’14. Nice to get a pair of Hall of Fame broadcasters in the same day!
