Hurt Me!

Today I received a baseball signed by Frank Thomas.  Leaf Authentics was running a special on them and could not pass it up.  I got one from them a couple weeks ago that had the “Big Hurt” inscription.  This one today has “HOF 2014”.  Not bad at all!

Vacation Mail Day

One part of coming home that was actually fun was seeing all the mail piled up in the house.  My in-laws are awesome and not only watched the crazy dog for us but also got the mail each day and kept watch of things at home.  Going through the mail yielded the following items:

  • Joc Peterson signed baseball I sent in to a private signing with this top prospect via Lojo Sports
  • Bill Mazeroski to complete my 1961 Dell Sports Baseball Magazine.  It has Maz, Whitey Ford, Bobby Richardson and Hal Smith on it and looks awesome.
  • Roger Clemens, Frank Thomas, and Juan Lagares signed baseballs via a promotion Leaf Authentics ran at a nice price.

It was a nice run of mail to go through!

Rickey and Hal

Today I received two packages.  The first one was the magazine I have been working on lately which Hal Smith signed it.  For some reason I missed $0.65 postage on the package and he graciously added it.  Even though I sent him a donation, I am going to mail him $1 for covering me tomorrow.  It is going to be off to be signed by Bill Mazeroski next and it will be complete.
The other package was a baseball and a HOF postcard signed by Rickey Henderson.  Tom O (orr23mj on SCN) had some left over items he had signed by Rickey and sold them at prices I could not pass up.  I received each today and they look awesome.
