Adventures in Autograph Collecting
Today I received a couple baseball things I recently purchased. I am pleased to add an Addison Russell signed baseball. Addison is a highly rated prospect in baseball and I purchased this beauty from Scott M (35kd on SCN).
I also received a PSA slabbed signed 1966 Topps Bob Allison card. I bought this one on eBay. I nice addition to my Twins Topps project.
My guy Paul C came through again! He is already starting my next batch of baseballs but today I received the latest group he got for me. All blue ink, sweetspot on OMLBs:
Amaurys Minier
Kohl Stewart
Byron Buxton
Trey Ball
Another fine, fine group of baseballs! Thanks Paul!
Today I received a card I purchased from Allen S (AutographAl on SCN). It is a 2011 Topps Carl Pavano card. I had one of these signed already but was not pleased with it so I am excited to upgrade.
Recently I purchased a Sports Illustrated magazine signed by Manny Ramirez and received it today. Manny has such a scribble for an autograph it is a wonder anyone can authenticate it. That is why it is important to know who you are buying it from. This one came from Dave P (AZGrapher8 on SCN) who got it in spring training a few years ago. I have worked with Dave a few times in the past and is a respected collector.
