The Dr Is In

Today I received a pair of packages in the mail.  The first was a 02.27.1995 Sports Illustrated magazine signed by Doc Gooden.  I thought I had all the issues signed by Doc but found that I had this issue but the Canada version and needed the USA version so I found a real nice newsstand copy and sent it to Cardboard Promotions (Doug Keating- 4192HITS on SCN) for his signing last weekend with Doc.  The Canada version is signed in silver paint pen and it looks nice but I wanted to do something different with this one so I went with gold.  It turned out great!

The other package I received today was some baseballs and baseball cards I purchased Jordan S (jordan23royals on SCN).  They were:
Mickey Moniak “2016 #1 pick”
Dansby Swanson
Phil Bickford “1st Round 2015”

The cards are 2015 Topps Minor League Heritage:
61 Amed Rosario
64 Brent Honeywell
70 Adam Walker
107 Jack Flaherty
109 Roman Quinn
216 Jose Berrios
All are signed BEAUTIFULLY and I hope to get back to Jordan again soon to purchase more items from him!

A Great Ball Anyway You Gage It

Today I received a baseball signed by the 2015 J G Taylor Spink recipient Tom Gage.  Brad C (thekid1 on SCN) got it signed at a banquet and I bought it from him.  I tried to find a way to contact Mr Gage after he received the award from the Hall of Fame but was unable to.  I am really excited to add this to my collection.  Tom signed it with “HOF Spink Award”.  It looks great!  Thanks Brad!
