Today I received a baseball I have wanted for a long, long time. I have always wanted a Joe DiMaggio baseball but was afraid of getting one because there were so many fakes out there. I recently sold a baseball that yielded me a nice starting point to look for a DiMaggio baseball. I sold a few more things and ended up with enough money to purchase the ball I really wanted. Today I received a beautiful PSA full letter certified Joe DiMaggio baseball for my collection. It was the second most expensive baseball I have ever purchased for my collection but I have one that I feel very comfortable with having. It is graded PSA 9 which is awesome too!

Bob Allison
Today I received a couple cards for my Twins set. Every first of the month I check Brian F (abcunlimited.net)’s update to see if he added any new Twins cards I might need. The update for January included a 1962 Topps Bob Allison #180 that I needed. I contacted Brian to acquire it and he reminded me that I had a credit from a small website fix I did for him a while ago so I ended up with the Allison and a 1982 Twins Future Stars #766 card signed by Lenny Faedo for my collection! The cards are perfect and I hope to get Hrbek and Laudner to finish the 1982 card at Twinsfest in a couple weeks!
Raine(s) It In!
Today I received a signed Hall of Fame plaque postcard signed by Tim Raines. I bought it as one of Tom O’s (orr23mj on SCN) Black Friday deals.
Thome is my Home(y)!
Today I received a baseball I purchased from Tom O (orr23mj on SCN) that was signed by Jim Thome. Jim signed it with HOF 18 and it is Beckett Witness authentication. Tom does a great job with his signings!
