Today I received a package with three beautifully signed Roger Clemens Sports Illustrated magazines. I even requested one be signed in gold paint pen and it was signed perfectly and allowed to dry so it would not smear. These three, in addition to the previous three I sent, gives me six of the seven Sports Illustrated magazine covers The Rocket appeared on. I will need to get the last one signed soon too.

I am pleased with how everything turned out. Thanks Franco! You did a great job!
Sir Rodney Part I
Today I received the first of a pair of packages that Isaias F (franco858 on SCN) sent me that has the items I got signed via his private signing with Rod Carew. Rod is not doing too well these days health-wise and was very limited for signing at Twinsfest this past January so when I heard Franco was having a signing with him, I sent all the magazines and items I had for him to get signed.
This box contained:
1970 Famous Slugger Yearbook
07.01.1974 Sports Illustrated
Sports All Stars 1976 Baseball
Oct 1977 Sport
Spring 1978 Baseball Quarterly
Summer 1978 Sports Hall of Fame Baseball
Aug 1979 Sport
These all turned out awesome. One of my favorite magazines is the Basbeall Quarterly. I remember my mom buying this magazine for me when I was eight years old and I read it so many times I wore it out. Somewhere along the lines it got tossed. I found a mint one on eBay for this signing.
I am very pleased with how everything turned out. I cannot wait to get my other package within the next couple days.
Thanks Franco!
