Todd Barclay (moselder71 on SCN) recently had a signing with former Twin Alex Colome. I had a card I needed signed for my Twins card set so I sent it in and received it today. Colome’s signature is nothing much to write home about but I can mark him off my need list now.
May I?
I recently noticed on SCN that Scott N (2hotty) was selling a 2021 Topps Heritage #350 Trevor May card so I reached out to him and bought it. The first one he sent me got lost in the mail and never showed up either back to him or to me. I let him know and he sent me another one and I received it today. I will return the other if/when it shows up.
Tradin’ Time
When Justin N (JNeel15 on SCN) reached out to me asking about a couple cards I had on my trade list, he was very nice about it. I knew I wanted to help him out. Too many times I get a message where the person has a rude undertone or whatever so those I do not bother helping. Justin was working on a San Francisco Giants project. I reviewed his trade list and picked out four Twins cards I did not have (except for one that I will get Cuddyer on it some time to finish it). The cards arrived today and look great!
Jeff Reardon- 1989 All Star Set
Joe Nathan- 2005 Topps Total
Michael Restovich- 2002 Topps Total
Michael Restovich- 2003 Topps (with Cuddyer on the card)
Posting Up
A couple weeks ago I saw a person on Facebook selling some Hall of Fame postcards. I was going to send to Mike Mussina and recently sent to Ryne Sandberg but what caught by eye on this post was that these postcards were cancelled at the Cooperstown Post Office induction weekend. Jeremy Dresdner was selling some nice postcards and I bought the following:
Ryne Sandberg (cancelled)
Mike Mussina (cancelled)
Whitey Herzog (cancelled)
Ozzie Smith
These are nice additions to the collection!
