A Kitty and a Wizard!

Today was a fun day of mail. I received a trio of items I sent to Phil K (StLSparty on SCN) for a signing he was doing with Jim Kaat and Ozzie Smith. Ozzie’s autograph was added to the 09.28.1987 Sports Illustrated that was already signed by Dave Collins. If this rings a bell, it is because I already had one completed by both guys and this is a second one. The other two items which had Kaat’s autograph inked on them was a 7″x8.75″ photo card of Jim taken in Spring Training in a year later in his career with the Twins. It appears to me to be like what you could buy at a souvenir stand at Met Stadium in the mid to late 1970s. I also had a Sporting News from 09.10.1966 which featured him on the cover signed. All three things turned out great! It was the first time I sent in to one of Phil’s signings and the way things turned out, it won’t be my last!
