Sports Illustrated Day!

Today I received a pair of boxes with multiple Sports Illustrated magazines in them.  The first was from Jamie B (jamieblye on SCN) which had SI’s he got signed at a private signing for me from the following:
Bob Gibson – 10.07.1968
Bob Gibson – 07.19.1993
Roberto Alomar – 10.26.1992
They were all signed with the pen and the location I wanted and look great!

The other box had three Reggie Jackson SI’s that Isaias F (franco858 on SCN) got signed at his private signing.  Those issues are 06.17.1974, 05.02.1977 and 03.15.1982.  Again, all these were signed perfectly and in the perfect location and pen and look great too!

Thanks guys for providing a service of getting items signed for me!

A Couple Nice Items

Today’s mail brought a surprise and a package of some prospects.  Back in the beginning of the season, I mailed a baseball card to Paul Molitor at Target Field.  Today I received my 2013 Gypsy Queen card signed beautifully in blue!

The other package was probably the last one I will get from my friend Paul C in Florida until next spring.  He worked the instructional league games for me and picked up baseballs signed by the following guys:
Austin Meadows w/”1st RD Pick ’13”
Josh Bell w/”Futures Game 2014″
Alen Hansen
Kyle Schwarber
As always the last few years, Paul has done a great job and I cannot wait until next spring!

A Trifecta of Hall of Famers

Today I met up with my buddy Joel B (brad0112 on SCN) at Caden’s baseball tournament in Richfield.  Joel brought some things I had bought a while ago and he picked up for me as well as three magazines from a private signing he had during all star week.

Today I added a beautiful Lefty Gomez baseball and a beautiful Carl Hubbell baseball.  Both are psa/dna certified.  These came from the same batch I bought from a few months ago when I got Yogi Berra, AB Chandler, Curt Gowdy, Willie Stargell, Brooks Robinson and Hal Newhouser.  I have been wanting a Hubbell for a while and they are real hard to find in this condition.  I am pretty excited for both of these.

Joel brought three Sports Illustrated magazines he had signed for me when he met up with Rickey Henderson after the Celebrity Softball game last week.  These are also beautiful magazines signed perfectly.

Thanks a ton Joel!
