Today I received a couple cards I purchased from Mike P (SoxAutographs29 on SCN). Mike had a 2017 Danny Santana and a 2017 Justin Haley Topps cards available. Both were no longer Twins when the cards came out. I am excited to knock these off my need list!

Trade ’em!
Today I received a few cards that was my receiving end of a good old fashion card trade. A while back I won an auction of a lot of signed cards from the 1960’s. I kept the cards I needed and listed the others for trade on SCN. One of the people who contacted me was Ian N (imn875 on SCN) who needed a 1963 Andre Rodgers card. He had a 1972 Danny Thompson card so we made a trade. I told him I would include a card of his favorite team which he said was the Phillies and he included a few Twins. It was a really fun and cool trade. The complete list of cards I received was:
1972 Topps 368 Danny Thompson
1994 Score 89 Chuck Knoblauch
1998 Topps Opening Day 135 Chuck Knoblauch
1996 Donruss/Leaf Signature Series Pat Meares
Athletes In Action Brian Harper
Thanks for the great trade Ian!
A LOT of Fun!
Today I received a lot of signed cards I won in a Clean Sweep auction. The lot contained 22 cards and I really only needed/wanted one of them… the 1965 Cesar Tovar card is the final card I need from the 1965 Topps Twins set and it was one of hte 22. I overpaid for just wanting that one card but figured I could trade or sell the others I got. All the cards were from the early to mid-1960s and had mostly deceased players in it. All cards were certified by JSA and had a sticker and card for each. I am pleased with the card and the opportunity to complete my set!
That’s The Ticket!
Today I received a package from Chad L (TheChad on SCN) who got my a few tickets and cards signed from the Twins who are playing for the AAA team Rochester Red Wings. Today I received two tickets for John Curtiss with “MLB Debut” on them. I also received a ticket signed by Jake Cave with “MLB Debut” on it and a Zack Littell ticket with “MLB Debut” on it. Chad also got me three cards signed, Zack Granite on his Wild Card Topps Now and Road To Opening Day as well as a 2018 Kennys Vargas. Thanks Chad!
