Today I received two packages and both had signed Sports Illustrated magazines in them.
The first was an issue from October 21, 1974 that I had recently received back signed from Steve Yeager. This time I got it back from Bill Buckner. It is now signed by everyone I can distinguish on the cover. All four players. Time to retire the issue unless someone can determine who the A’s player in the picture with Steve Yeager is and he is a decent signer.
My other package contained four issues I purchased from Kevin H (justcrazy on SCN). These were all obtained in person by him over the years. This group of four includes:
Jim “Catfish” Hunter- October 23, 1972
Lou Brock- July 22, 1974
Bump Wills- March 28, 1977
Jim Rice- April 9, 1979
Nice lot of three Hall of Famers and a son of a baseball legend (Maury Wills).
