Today I received a 1963 Topps AL Strikeout Leaders card with Jim Kaat’s signature added to it. It already had Camilo Pascual’s autograph on it and waited for Kitty to show up at a show or private signing to get him to sign it. Tom O (orr23mj on SCN) had a private signing with him and I sent it in for that. It turned out great.

A Real Nice Surprise!
Today I received an envelope from my friend Jon S in Rochester, NY. He has season tickets for the Red Wings and gets me autographs on cards I need for my Twins project. He also collects Brian Dozier home run tickets so I help him out with those.
My package today had the follow cool cards:
2015 Topps Heritage Trevor May/AJ Achter
2015 Topps Heritage Danny Santana
2015 Diamond King Danny Santana
Thanks as always for all the help on my projects Jon!!!
Older Twins
Today I received some older Twins cards for my end of a trade. I traded with Sean A (seanbaseball99 on SCN) for some cards he needed as he was working on a set. I did not really need the cards I got back but he needed the ones I sent him and he went out of his way to check for all the Twins cards he had for me. I received the following:
1961 Topps Hal Naragon
1962 Topps Hal Naragon
1962 Topps Bill Pleis
1963 Topps Lee Strange
1965 Topps Al Worthington
1973 Topps Jim Holt
1976 Topps Phil Roof
All cards are signed real nice in blue Sharpie so I am sure I will use them as upgrades for some I already have.
Thanks for the trade Sean!
Happy Father’s Day To Me!
Today Cami and I went to the Twins game against the Cubs. As is our Sunday tradition, Cami wanted to get autographs in the Kids Only Autograph Line before the game. She found out the signers were Kennys Vargas and Kurt Suzuki. She asked if I had anything for them and I told her I had the two Heritage cards from this year and she said she would get them signed for me for Father’s Day. That was pretty cool. So, I have my first two 2015 Topps Heritage cards signed for my set! Thank you Cami! It was awesome going to the game with you! Love you!
