Today’s mail brought a box of four magazines from the Nolan Ryan Foundation. If you want a Nolan Ryan autograph, they do an AMAZING job taking care of your stuff and getting it back to you, etc. They are a first rate operation when it comes to autographs. Nolan visits the place to sign autographs a couple times a year so your wait could be as long as six months but it is worth the wait.
Since I already have all his Sports Illustrated magazines signed, I decided to get some other “odd ball” type magazines. Today I received:
1974 Baseball Illustrated
06.16.1975 Newsweek
1977 Baseball Illustrated
04.30.1980 Inside Sports
All were signed in the perfect location in perfect blue Sharpie and included a NRF hologram.

Foulke It
Today I received a pair of items. The first was a Time Magazine signed by Keith Foulke that I sent into a signing with Doug Keating of CardboardPromotions.com. He had Keith sign it perfectly.
My other item was a 2015 Topps Chris Parmelee card signed perfectly in blue. I got this card from Kevin H (justcrazy on SCN).
All in all a real nice day of mail!
Every Rose Has Its Thorn
Today I received the remaining magazine from Tom O’s (orr23mj on SCN) private signing with Pete Rose. It is the 08.19.1985 issue of Time magazine. It is signed in blue and looks great! Thanks again Tom!
A Rose is a Rose is a Rose is a Rose
While on a short get away vacation with the family this weekend, I received a package on Friday which contained four Pete Rose magazines. I sent these magazines, plus one other, to Tom Orr for a signing a while ago. The signing was rescheduled a couple times but Tom’s persistence got it done! The magazines I received were all signed beautifully and were:
Sport, September, 1967
Home Run, 1969
Dell All Star Sports, May, 1974
Sport, June, 1974
I found one other one after I mailed these to him and sent them separately. That one should be coming soon. As always, Tom does a great job!
