    1 Success In 02/02

    He's running for US Senate against Patty Murray out here in Washington State. Probably won't win though.

    A week's worth of 1987 Topps

    Gentlemen- Here is the latest update for my 1987 Topps Project. Also, my wife and I went to Mariners FanFest this weekend where we got autographs from a fellow member of the bald community, M's closer David Aardsma. I'll post a link to the story once it's written. For now, here's the latest 87...

    1 TTM - Lee Smith 2/1/10

    I sent to him a while back. Hopefully this is an indication he's getting to his mail.

    My latest 1987 Topps update

    Thanks again for the Fielder, pretty sweet card and signature. Since I only started this in November, I'm trying to be patient with some of the holdouts. I'm always reading on here about returns coming in a year or two after they were originally sent and those that come back after long waits are...

    My latest 1987 Topps update

    Gentlemen- Here's update No. 10 from my 1987 Topps Project. I was flattered by all of your responses to it last week and thank all of you for visiting my site. I get paid per click, so please check back often. http://www.examiner.com/x-28907-Seattle-Baseball-Card-Examiner

    My 1987 Topps Project

    I haven't started working on the traded set and don't know if I will, so the Maddux can go to whoever is next in line. That Fielder is sweet, and I had heard that he doesn't sign TTM anymore. I would certainly be interested in that, although I have virtually no extras, only stuff that people...

    My 1987 Topps Project

    You're the one! I love the set, it was the year I started collecting, and it's ridiculously over produced so it's very cheap. Here's the Morris address: 2645 Elm Dr. North Bellmore, NY 11710 It took about a month and a half. I try to update the Examiner deal on Sundays. There are a few other...

    My 1987 Topps Project

    I was pretty surprised to get Sparky back. I had read that it was too hard for him to sign so I was pretty stoked when he showed up. If you get it back, it should happen pretty quick, I think it took about a week.

    Would you be willing to trade any of the doubles?

    My 1987 Topps Project

    Everyone- I joined The Bench several months ago and in November I started a 1987 Topps project, an idea which I stole from someone on this very site. Rather than post every success on this board, I've started tracking it as part of my duties as a baseball card writer (yes, that's an actual job)...

    My Published Beckett Letter

    Beckett has turned into little more than a PR firm for card companies. Its prices are essentially arbitrary numbers. Ebay is the only way to tell what something is actually worth on the open market. Anybody remember Baseball Cards Magazine? Great publication, an arbitrary price guide, but it...

    Awesome stuff! John Rocker is an idiot, though.

    The Hawk 1/13

    I've got him once, but I gave him a $12 donation to his foundation. I didn't know he signed for free on occasion.

    Curse word collection completed

    I sent it to him on Aug. 2 and got it back on, I think, the 16th. I was surprised he signed it, and very surprised to get it back so soon.

    Curse word collection completed

    I got Ripken c/o the MLB Network in August. Nettles arrived today. I sent him two cards, telling him he could keep one but he sent both back signed. Unfortunately, he signed over the offending term on one of them.

    Dawson in about 20 days

    Andre Dawson came in today (11/12) in about 20 days with a $12 donation to his foundation. Worth every penny, love that '78 set!

    Ghost Signers

    My Zimmer cards started all this and I was of course disappointed that they are probably fake, but I'm glad that I know. That's one of the primary functions of this site, to let fellow collectors know who signs, who doesn't and who ruins cards with the signatures of relatives or flunkies.

    Mail Box 11/9 good and not-so-good

    The address I have for Halladay is in Colorado. 4728 Edie Place Edie, CO 80516 Have no idea if that works or not, but it's the one I've got.
