Recently I purchased a Sports Illustrated magazine signed by Manny Ramirez and received it today. Manny has such a scribble for an autograph it is a wonder anyone can authenticate it. That is why it is important to know who you are buying it from. This one came from Dave P (AZGrapher8 on SCN) who got it in spring training a few years ago. I have worked with Dave a few times in the past and is a respected collector.
CJ
Today I received a baseball signed by CJ Wilson. It is a real nice baseball signed in blue ink on the sweetspot. I bought this from Josh M (ridiculousxdream on SCN). Thanks Josh!
Benny and the Jets
I recently sent a few Sports Illustrated magazines to Scott Smith, The SI King, for his upcoming consignments and signings. Today I received back the first of three packages. It was a pair of Sports Illustrated magazines signed by Benito Santiago. Of course, when you deal with Scott, you get top notch service and this time was no different. I received them packaged really well and shipped really fast. They are great additions to my collection! Thanks Scott!
