I sent out an April, 1990 Baseball Digest magazine to Terry Steinbach a while ago. It was already signed by Jose Canseco and featured those two plus Mark McGwire on the cover. I received it back signed by Terry today. I am not sure if I will ever complete it as Mark does not sign items already signed by Canseco. For now, it will be done I guess.

Garvey
Going through a box of Baseball Digest magazines, I came across four real nice Steve Garvey issues. I saw he signed for $25 per item so I sent them off to him. Today I received them back… all four signed perfectly! The issues I received are:
February, 1975
October, 1977
June, 1979
January, 1982
Koooooz!
My wife recently visited her aunt and was given a number of older Life magazines for me. I found the September 26, 1969 Jerry Koosman issue and decided to send it to him right away. I included my April, 1970 issue of All-Star Sports that I recently had signed by Boog Powell too. I sent them a week ago and received them back unsigned with a note that his prices went up, substantially. I resent with the updated price and received them back signed today. They are awesome!
Boooooooooog
Just before I went on my summer baseball trip that included a game at Camden Yards in Baltimore, I looked for some Boog Powell items to bring along as I heard he signed at “Boog’s BBQ Pit” inside the stadium. He was not there when we were but I did have a tasty BBQ sandwich though! I checked and Boog had a signing listed at The Dugout Zone in Baltimore so I sent all the items in. Today they arrived! A friend of mine sent me a couple postcards from Boog’s playing days when he heard I was going to look for Boog at the ballpark. I got those two signed as well as the following magazines:
04.1970 All Star Sports (Jerry Koosman is on the cover so I may need to send it to him to finish it)
06.1971 Sport
1971 Maco Sports Baseball Guidebook
Everything is signed great!
