One of my most favorite interactions with a celebrity was when I met Charlie Sheen. He was so cool to me and far, far exceeded what I expected it to be. When I saw Charlie was signing and Joseph K (joe0316 on SCN) was taking items for the signing, I sent in my two Major League items. I received them back signed in blue as requested. The items are:
Japanese Movie Ticket Stub
Japanese Postcard
Exciting oddball items to add to my collection!

Well Played Mauer
Yesterday I got a notice that I had a package at the Post Office to sign for. I sent my SASE with signature confirmation for Fan HQ’s signing with Joe Mauer due to the value of the items inside of it. I wanted to make sure I got it. During lunch today I went to the Post Office and picked it up. As always, Fan HQ does an amazing job on items. I got the following today:
2024 Topps Heritage #205
2024 Allen & Ginter #190
MLB 11 The Show with Joe on the cover and “Well Played Mauer”
06.06.2004 ticket with “1st MLB HR”
06.10.2010 ticket with “Behind Net Catch”
08.05.2023 ticket with “2023 Twins HOF”
I am over the top excited to add these to my collection!
Sir Rodney
I found a guy long ago who had some unsigned, hand painted, VERY limited numbered Wild Horse Cachets envelopes available. I grabbed any that had the Twins on them. I saw where Tom O (orr23mj on SCN) was having a private signing with Rod Carew so I sent in the cachet of Rod. I requested blue ink instead of a typical Sharpie so it would stand out against the bright paint. I received it today and it turned out great!
A Super Return
Jim Perry won the 1970 AL Cy Young award while pitching for the Twins. I sent him a 1971 Topps Super card to sign. Today I received it. He signed it real nice but forgot the zero in his “1970 Cy Young” inscription. Oh well. Close enough!
