Handy Andy

Today I received a pair of envelopes.  One was a request I sent to former Twin Allan Anderson.  I needed one more Anderson card to complete all my Topps Twins card needs and he took care of my real quick.  I added the 1991 Topps card to my collection.

The envelope was a few cards I bought from Jim O (spark1989 on SCN).  Those cards were the following:
1968 Twins Team signed by Jim Holt, Bruce Look and George Mitterwald
1970 Twins Team signed by Frank Kostro, Tom Tischinski, George Mitterwald and Stan Williams
1971 Twins Team signed by Jim Holt, Jim Perry and George Mitterwald
1971 Jim Kaat
1973 Jim Kaat
Both of the Kaats were upgrades to what I already had.

Vote For Pedro!

Today I received a signed 1994 Topps Pedro Munoz card that I traded a 1982 Topps Terry Bulling signed card for in a trade with Justin M (jdmurphy315 on SCN).  Both cards were obtained by each of us via a private signing at some point in the past.  Pedro now lives in Venezuela and is a hard autograph to come by.  Terry passed away earlier this year and he was a tough autograph even when he was alive.  It leaves me down to needing just a 1995 Munoz card to complete the Munoz Topps Twins cards.

Mission Accomplished!

Today I received an awesome package.  It contained two cards only but one of those cards was a milestone maker.  Mark C (psugator01 on SCN) was able to get me my last two Mark Guthrie cards I needed for the collection signed at the High School Perfect Game event in Florida last weekend.  The set Mark completed for me was the Twins World Champion 10 Year Anniversary set.  My most favorite card of Kirby Puckett is in that set and I was fortunate to have gotten that one and finally finished it a number of years later.  Thanks Mark!
