I saw a post by Charlie Siegel on Facebook with some cards available a week or so ago and noticed three Twins cards I needed. What is so great about these cards are that they are all players who are no longer on the Twins team so it is nice to get these knocked off. The cards I got are:
CJ Cron 2019 Topps Update US253
Martin Perez 2019 Topps Update US 222
Jhoulys Chacin 2020 Topps Update U-126

Mighty Max
Scott N (2hotty on SCN) recently posted that his mom and dad were both in pretty bad shape health wise and was selling some cards to help them out. I noticed he had a pair of Max Kepler cards listed for sale. I needed both and bought them. The cards are:
Topps 2021 #11
Gypsy Queen 2020 #12
After receiving the cards, I send an additional donation his way to help him and his parents out. I received a really nice thank you from Scott which made me happy.
Going Battey
Today I received a pair of 1963 Topps Earl Battey cards I needed for my Twins sets. Both are signed in blue and look great. They are #410 and #306. I purchased them from Brian Clapper (Facebook)/Wesley R George return address.
Sir Rodney
Today I received a pair of items signed by Rod Carew. Tom O (orr23mj on SCN) had a private signing with Rodney and I sent in a Perez Steele postcard and a 2021 Allen & Ginter card #108. Without knowing if there would be a Twinsfest this January I was not willing to wait to get these done. Rod’s prices are going up and I figured it would be best to get him now with those items laying around needing ink.
