Rodney

A while ago I had sent in a pair of Topps Project 70 cards for a signing that Tom O (orr23mj on SCN) was having with Rod Carew. I asked Tom to use a nice bold gold paint pen. Well, when I received them the paint pen appears transparent on it. I reached out to Tom and he told me to send them back next time he had a signing with him.
I sent the two cards so he could wipe them or show that they were messed up plus a replacement of each of them (I usually buy two of things for exactly this reason) as well as a different Project 70 card and a Topps Andy Friedman Spotlight 70 Series II card. I received all six cards signed today. I did not expect the two that were signed in gold to be signed but they were and I was able to remove the gold paint pen. Tom provides solid customer service!

Mauer Power

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!
