Today I received what I think is one of the best deals I ever got on eBay. I purchased a Rod Carew Perez Steele signed postcard with HOF 91 for $15 plus shipping. I had just purchased an unsigned one to get signed at Twinsfest for $7 so I am pretty excited to have this. It included the ARF signing ticket when it was signed as well.

NOT A Baine In The A**
Today I received a couple items that are fun. The first was a Harold Baines HOF postcard I bought from Tom O (orr23mj on SCN) as part of a Christmas Sale. The second was an Aristides Aquino debut ticket that Jennifer G (jsg1984 on SCN) got signed during the Reds Fanfest. Aristides signed it with “MLB Debut” AND included “The Punisher” on his own. Pretty cool ticket!
Ho-Lee Smith!
Today I received a Hall of Fame postcards signed by Lee Smith. I bought it as part of Tom O’s (orr23mj on SCN) Black Friday specials.
Three’s A Charm!
Today I received three, yes THREE, packages with autographs in them! What a fun mail day!
The first package was a HOF postcard signed by Trevor Hoffman that I bought from Steve S (cosmo on SCN). Steve has provided me a few items in the past and is one cool dude. He also included an early Kent Hrbek signed index card. Thanks Steve!
The second package was a pair of Shane Mack cards. FanHQ had a private signing with Shane last week and I had sent in my final two Mack cards I needed to complete my Twins team sets. These are 1990 Topps Traded #64T and 1994 Topps #337. Both were signed perfectly in blue Sharpie. Thanks Shaun and crew!
My final package was one I forgot about. I mailed a baseball to Dave Fleming via Oracle Park in San Francisco asking him to write his call from when the Giants beat the Tigers in the World Series. Not only did he sign the ball but he also included his call! I have a new baseball to add to The Call Ball Collection! Thanks Dave!
What a fun time opening these packages!
