Today I received a pair of packages. One was from Chris L (ChrisL999 on SCN) and contained a pair of high prospect signed baseballs. One was signed by Victor Robles and the other Eloy Jimenez. They are beautiful!
The other package was from Tom Hamilton. Tom is the Indians broadcaster and I had sent him a call ball request for Francisco Lindor’s first career walk off home run but he just signed his name. He did return the donation so I guess that was cool.

Bang The Drummond
Today I received a pair of cards I bought from Scott V (Cooptown on SCN). They are the 1991 Topps and 1991 Donruss cards of former Twin Tim Drummond. Strangely enough this was the final card I needed to complete my 1991 Topps Twins team set. Both are signed beautifully in blue Sharpie. Thanks Scott!
A Major League Card!
Today I received a card signed by Chelsie Ross who played Eddie Harris in the movie Major League. This card is a 5″x7″ card from the special set produced by Topps for the 25th anniversary of the movie. It is authenticated by Beckett. I bought it on eBay from trsent. This card goes well with the Charlie Sheen card I got signed earlier this summer.
Mr Cub
About three years ago I sent the Ernie Banks “Where Are They Now?” Sports Illustrated magazine to a private signing. Due to a mixup caused by the person conducting the private signing, I was unable to get my magazine signed (I have not purchased anything from him and was removed from his mailing list as a result). I resubmitted it a couple months later and sadly Mr Banks passed away. Via my friend Joel B, I was connected with a person who had a PSA’d issue for sale. Today I received the magazine from Brian L and can mark this one off as taken care of! Thanks for the help Joel!
