A King, A Cy, and Spring Goodies

Today was a fun day to get mail!  I received three packages full of autographed goodies.
The first package I opened contained a pair of magazines signed by “The King” Richard Petty.  Mr Petty was kind enough to sign the March 1992 and December 1992 Stock Car Racing magazines in thin silver paint pen.  They look great!  I am going to give one to my brother who is a big NASCAR fan.
The second package I opened contained a pair of Sports Illustrated magazines signed by Jake Arrieta.  I never figured I would get one Jake Arrieta autograph in my collection much less two!  Pat Neshek started helping out collectors to get items signed from the Phillies for a nominal fee.  I mailed in some cards for Caden and a pair of SI’s for me.  I received the SI’s today.  They are both signed beautifully!  They are the 03.28.2016 and 10.10.2016 issues.  I cannot thank Pat enough for helping out fellow collectors.
The last package I opened contained a bunch of autographed items from spring training that Vinnie M (vinniemiller on SCN) got for me.  These items are:
Amir Garrett ML Debut tickets X3
Ariel Hernandez ML Debut tickets X2
Jesse Winker ML Debut ticket
Jimmy Sherfy ML Debut tickets X2
David Dahl ML Debut ticket
Alen Hansen ML Debut ticket
Pablo Sandoval ML Debut ticket
Francisco Mejia ML Debut tickets X2
Rob Refsnyder 1st Hit ticket
Jeff Mathis – 02.24.2003 Sports Illustrated
Vinnie has a bunch of other items for the visiting Seattle teams this season.  He does a fantastic job on my items and cannot wait to see what else he has for me this year!
