Three’s A Crowd

Today I received three packages of signed baseball goodies.  I am pretty excited about all three!

The first was an envelope of signed tickets that Steve S (cosmo on SCN) got signed for me at the Boston Red Sox Winterfest event.  Steve did a fantastic job on a real tough signing team.  He got the following tickets signed:
Andrew Benintendi- Debut Ticket
Eduardo Rodriguez- Debut Ticket w/”MLB Debut”
Blake Swihart- Debut Ticket w/”MLB” (I guess he does not know how to spell debut???)
Sam Travis- 2 @ Debut Ticket both with “MLB Debut”
Steve even included a signed bonus card of Cosmo!

The next package I received was a magazine I had sent to Dave Parker via Past Pros.  Dave signed my June 1979 Sport magazine.  It turned out great.

The final box I opened was three baseballs that Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN) sent me that I purchased from him.  Chris does a great job on hard to get prospects and these are nice baseballs to add to the collection especially after Baseball America released their Top 100 Prospects list last week.  These baseballs are:
Brendan Rodgers
Estevan Florial
Alec Hansen

It was a pretty good mail day for the old baseball collection!

The Kid, The Hawk, and The Killer

Today I received a pair of packages of some autographed items I bought.
The first was a Ken Griffey Jr autographed Hall of Fame plaque postcard from Mill Creek Sports.  I thought it was at a price point I could not pass up.  It was Tristar and Beckett authenticated.
The other package was from Jonathan M (dabulls on SCN) which had a Killebrew Root Beer promotional photo signed by Harmon Killebrew and the other was a 07.20.1987 Sports Illustrated magazine signed by Andre Dawson and was MLB authenticated.
All in all it was a pretty cool day of mail to pick up three Hall of Famer autographs!
