Today I received my package from Steve S (cosmo on SCN) from the Red Sox Winterfest. I had mailed him a few things to get signed but from everything I read, the operation of the Winterfest was a mess. Steve did manage to get me a ML Debut ticket signed by Mookie Betts though. We had agreed on a price and everything to get it signed but Steve said I did not have to pay. I am sending him some cards I got signed at Twinsfest last week as thanks.

I’m Not Greedy. I Just Needed a Crede!
When I saw Joe Crede was going to be signing at the Chicago White Sox Fanfest, I had to find someone to get me the last Crede card I needed. Donnie D (macey225 on SCN) stepped up to get the job done for me. I probably offered too much to get it done but to have that knocked off my need list is a great feeling. Donnie got me the 2009 Topps Heritage high numbered card signed in beautiful blue Sharpie. His communication and fast turnaround shipping it to me was perfect! Thanks Donnie!
A Cuddy and a Pair of Aggies
Today I received a pair of envelopes with signed cards in them. The first was from a private signing Shaun H (via fanhqstore.com) with Michael Cuddyer. Unfortunately, I screwed up and sent in a card I already had signed. I needed one more card and it turned out I sent in one I already had. I will wait for the next signing Shaun has with Cuddy to get the 2011 Allen & Ginter card signed.
The other envelope contained a pair of Rick Aguilera cards that Jesus C (jeserone on SCN) got signed for me at a recent event where Aggie attended. Jess lives in California and has hooked me up in the past. The two Aggie cards are the last two I needed for my signed Twins card project. They are the 1998 Topps #95 and the 1999 Topps #158. Both were signed beautifully in blue Sharpie.
Mission Accomplished!
Today I received an awesome package. It contained two cards only but one of those cards was a milestone maker. Mark C (psugator01 on SCN) was able to get me my last two Mark Guthrie cards I needed for the collection signed at the High School Perfect Game event in Florida last weekend. The set Mark completed for me was the Twins World Champion 10 Year Anniversary set. My most favorite card of Kirby Puckett is in that set and I was fortunate to have gotten that one and finally finished it a number of years later. Thanks Mark!
