Today I received my ticket from Ichiro Suzuki’s 3,000th hit game. I had sent it to Mill Creek Sports who is Ichiro’s exclusive autograph agent to be signed. I am very pleased with how it turned out. It came with a hologram on the back and a nice card verifying the authenticity of the autograph. They do a great job at Mill Creek!

Hey Coach!
Today I received my 09.27.2010 Sports Illustrated back from a private signing that Jeff F (haleysdaddy0304 on SCN) had with Jerry White. My SI was already signed by Jim Thome so to add Jerry was really nice. I had an issue already that was signed by Jerry and Thome but the Thome autograph was not one of his best. Since this issue is one of my favorite covers, I wanted a better one. I traded the other one a few months ago and kept the one I had of just Thome. Jeff made sure Jerry signed it in the perfect spot and it looks great!
The Dr Is In
Today I received a pair of packages in the mail. The first was a 02.27.1995 Sports Illustrated magazine signed by Doc Gooden. I thought I had all the issues signed by Doc but found that I had this issue but the Canada version and needed the USA version so I found a real nice newsstand copy and sent it to Cardboard Promotions (Doug Keating- 4192HITS on SCN) for his signing last weekend with Doc. The Canada version is signed in silver paint pen and it looks nice but I wanted to do something different with this one so I went with gold. It turned out great!
The other package I received today was some baseballs and baseball cards I purchased Jordan S (jordan23royals on SCN). They were:
Mickey Moniak “2016 #1 pick”
Dansby Swanson
Phil Bickford “1st Round 2015”
The cards are 2015 Topps Minor League Heritage:
61 Amed Rosario
64 Brent Honeywell
70 Adam Walker
107 Jack Flaherty
109 Roman Quinn
216 Jose Berrios
All are signed BEAUTIFULLY and I hope to get back to Jordan again soon to purchase more items from him!
Crush Davis
Today I received my 08.26.2013 regional Sports Illustrated issue signed by Chris Davis. Chris had a signing with Great Moments, Inc and I had sent this in for it. It turned out great. I have tried to get this magazine signed a few times but Chris is a tough signer. It is cool he did a signing event.
