Recently I sent a signature card to Frank Abagnale so I could add his autograph to my collection. Frank’s early life was loosely the subject based on the movie Catch Me If You Can. He is now a security specialist and consults on fraud, etc. I thought it would be cool to add his signature to my collection so I mailed him. Today I received a signed business card back. It is neat to see the security examples on the business card. It is pretty unique and I am very excited to add it to my autograph collection. Thanks Frank!
Twins in Seattle
Today I received a package of Twins cards that Vinnie M (vinniemiller on SCN) got of the Twins while the were in Seattle. Vinnie is really good at getting autographs and I knew I could count on him to get some Twins cards signed.
He got the following cards signed for me:
2016 Topps Heritage Phil Hughes #380
2015 Topps Ervin Santana #415
2015 Topps Edurado Escobar #204
2016 Topps Brian Dozier #308
2016 Topps Phil Hughes #161
2016 Kurt Suzuki #208
All were signed beautifully in blue Sharpie. My only regret is that the Twins one go to Seattle once all season or I would have Vinnie get more for me! Thanks Vinnie!
Sunday Kids Day
Today was a rare day. All four of us went to the Twins game. I had exchanged tickets to another game so we had four tickets to the game today. Turns out that nobody was sitting in the seats next to our traded in seats so we were able to all sit together. Before the game, in typical Sunday Game fashion, Cami waited in line to get a couple autographs in her scorebook. Today it was Darin Mastroianni and Pat Dean signing. She got those two in her book and we all enjoyed the game. The Twins hit three home runs but that was not enough and they lost by two. It was a real fun game though with all of us together.
Gettin’ Miggy Wit’ It
Today I received a really cool Sports Illustrated. I had sent it to Brad C (THEKID1 on SCN) for an event where Miguel Cabrera was going to be signing autographs. The price was steep but I figured if I was to get my 10.29.2012 regional issue SI signed by Miggy, this was my shot. Brad did an awesome job! It was signed perfectly and I could not be happier adding this future hall of famer’s autograph to the collection!
