Another Spring Training Package

A person who has been mentioned a few times in my blog over the years is Joshua S (jslaw on SCN).  Josh has gotten me a lot of great autographs over the last couple spring training years and this year was no exception.  Today I received a box of items Josh got signed for me this month in Florida.  In it was:
Julio Teheran OMLB
Will Middlebrooks debut ticket
Jackie Bradley Jr debut ticket
David Price regional SI from 04.01.2013
Jonathan Papelbon SI from 10.01.2007
Jonathan Papelbon SI from 11.05.2007
All these are signed real nice.  Josh is another guy who does a great job for me throughout the year.  Thanks Josh!

That’s the ticket by George!

Today I received my 3000th hit ticket signed by George Brett in the mail.  I am stoked!  I had this ticket for a while and George does not do many shows but Tom Orr (orr23mj on SCN) got a private signing with him so I knew I had to send in the ticket.  I got the inscription 3000th Hit on it too.  It turned out great.  Tom does a great job and takes care of your items as if they were his.  Thanks Tom!

Spring Has Sprung!

Today I received the first of a couple packages from a pair of guys from SCN who are working spring training teams in Arizona.  Ethan (ethanoah) and Kent (doggle3) did a great job so far.  It is obvious they treated my items as if they were their own.  All the autographs are perfect and beautiful.  They did a great job and are still working on more the last few weeks of spring training.

Today I got in:
Jason Kipnis OMLB
Brian Wilson OMLB
Hyun-Jin Ryu OMLB
Patrick Corbin OMLB
Mike Olt OMLB
Jose Dariel Abreu OMLB
Archie Bradley OMLB
Clayton Kershaw ML Debut Ticket
Chris Sale ML Debut Ticket
Conor Gillaspie 1st HR Ticket
Jarrod Parker ML Debut Ticket
Jim Thome 2011 Allen & Ginter #204
Jim Thome 2011 Topps #304

Like I said above, these guys took care of my stuff as if they were their own.  I cannot wait to see what else they are able to get signed for me as spring training winds down!

Thanks guys!

A HOFer and a 1st Overall Draft Pick

Today I received a couple items I am excited to add to the collection.

A few weeks ago I purchased a nice season ticket version ticket for Wade Boggs’ 3,000th hit game.  I mailed it to him and got it back today signed beautifully.

A few days ago I purchased a baseball signed by Mark Appel.  Mark was the first overall draft pick in the 2013 MLB draft.  I bought it from Brad E (elchert13 on SCN).  Brad packaged it really well and shipped it fast.  A great ball for the collection!
