Today I received a couple packages with cards I needed for my Twins card sets. The first was a 2012 Allen & Ginter Ben Revere card. I got this card signed via a private signing at Carl’s Cards and Collectibles in Havertown, PA. The other was a package with a couple Kevin Slowey cards. Marc M (mesarosfamily on SCN) got these signed during Spring Training and we traded for a couple 1974 cards.

Great Scott!
Today I received a package from my friend Jon (Scott) and his son Tyler from Rochester, NY. Jon and Tyler work the Red Wings and since most of the Twins players have been bouncing between there and Minneapolis, he has hooked me up with a lot of autographs for my Topps Twins collection. Today’s package included:
Cole DeVries 2013 Topps
Scott Diamond 2013 Topps
Liam Hendriks 2013 Topps
Chris Herrmann 2013 Topps
Chris Parmelee 2013 Topps
Aaron Hicks 2011 Topps Heritage Minor League
Nick Blackburn eTopps
Jon and Tyler do awesome work and they really take care of me. Thanks guys!
Recently I was digging around my stuff and came across a couple postcards of Bobby Doerr that I sent to him. I received those two back today as well. One is an exhibit card and the other is the Perez Steele card. Always nice to get a hall of famer!
Oh Danny Boy
Today I received a package from Jim M who I found out also collects Twins autographs. I had sent him a few Twins cards he needed a while ago and we have been working out the details for a while. Today I added the following:
1974 Danny Thompson SGC slabbed
1995 Alex Cole Topps
1992 Pedro Munoz Topps
Pedro & Plouffe
Today was Sunday. Twins played at home. You know what that means! Cami and I time at the ballpark and autographs for Cami! Today’s kids autograph guests were Pedro Florimon and Trevor Plouffe. Cami loves Trevor Plouffe so there was no way I was going to get my Plouffe card signed but she did get Florimon on his 2013 Topps card for me. Trevor signed her baseball. It was a fun day at the ballpark with the Twins winning!
