Scott S (SI King) hit the Lake Tahoe Celebrity Golf Tournament and offered Joe Mauer as a person he would try to obtain autographs of for those who sent in items. He always does a first come, first served so I sent my items in right away and was the first ones done. I mailed four cards:
2018 Topps #231
2018 Topps Now #OD-141
2020 Allen & Ginter #20
2021 Allen & Ginter #132
All were signed in blue Sharpie and look great. I have only two cards left I need signed by Joe and a few magazines and other oddball items.
For a little sneak peak I will let you know that I sent in five items to a signing event in Cooperstown during the Hall of Fame induction weekend that I should get within the next week or two. THOSE are going to be awesome!

Sano Doubt About It!
Matt H (mattyice on SCN) lives in Ft Myers and hooked me up with some autographs during spring training. He reached out to me regarding Miguel Sano rehabbing in Ft Myers and asked if I need Miggy. I sent a couple cards and today I received a pair back signed! The cards Matt got Sano to sign are:
2021 Allen & Ginter #173
2021 Topps #383
Looking forward to seeing if Kenta Maeda rehabs in Ft Myers! Thanks Matt!
Wade-ing Away
Today’s mail brought in a LaMonte Wade Jr 2020 Topps Heritage #575 card. Chris Senn is a person who gets autographs in San Diego and had this card, among others, for sale. I am excited to add this card to my collection!
A Colome Cleansing
Todd Barclay (moselder71 on SCN) recently had a signing with former Twin Alex Colome. I had a card I needed signed for my Twins card set so I sent it in and received it today. Colome’s signature is nothing much to write home about but I can mark him off my need list now.
