Today I received a signed 2015 Allen & Ginter Trevor May card that I traded a 2015 Allen & Ginter Danny Santana card for with Dean R (deanr34 on SCN). We both got our respective cards signed at Twinsfest and this trade helps out both of us! Thanks Dean!

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!
The Ryan Express
There are not too many Foundations that do autograph signings as well as Nolan Ryan’s does. I heard via SCN that Nolan was going to have one more signing before Christmas and the deadline was around the end of November. I needed three of his Sports Illustrated magazines signed but found that his first issue was not in as good of shape as I would have liked so I only sent in two. I mailed in the 07.23.1979 and 05.01.1989 issues. (I have since found a real nice version of his first issue to send in next year.) Today I received the two magazines back signed beautifully with the Nolan Ryan hologram on each. They do an awesome job with everything. If you are looking for a Ryan autograph, you cannot go wrong sending in to the Nolan Ryan Foundation!
Also in the mail today was a 4×6 photo of Rudy Guiliani I received in trade with Eric M (erocmace on SCN). It was my first autograph of Mr Guiliani and a nice one at that.
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.
