I have also been picking up some other Bobby Doerr cards off eBay recently, and sent another package to him last week (after he sent back my baseball and 8x10). He signed the first 4 cards, and kinda signed the other one? Would you count it as a success? I didn't even realize it wasn't him on the front of the card, but I have scanned the front and back of that one as well..thoughts?

I would call that a very "interesting" success.

It isn't your fault Fleer didn't use the correct picture...lol.

 

[rangersfan1982]

I guess that's true...haha I mean, he did still sign it on the back kinda.

I have a card like that. It was a Mickey Vernon card, but it featured Floyd Baker or vice versa. He wrote "That is not me" and signed the back.

 

[rangersfan1982]

Thanks....still think it's a pretty sweet one. Can't believe I didn't notice it before I sent it out.

I have seen the same thing happen with this card for Doerr a few times. Congrats on the ones he did sign though, very nice!

i think that still counts as a success. I had one instance where i thought i was sending a ttm request to joe morgan the reds player and instead it arrived at joe morgan the red sox manager, he kindly wrote a little note saying wrong joe morgan! and signed the letter, that was kind of cool to get an unexpected auto of the red sox joe morgan. another time i sent a ttm request to andy messersmith who wrote me a letter saying he no longer signs ttm or gives his autograph out ttm...then he "signed" the letter with his signature! um..ok...ill take it!

Thanks buddy!!

Fun! Unless it was part of a set I would call it a success! Sometimes I think these types of returns are the most memorable!

I have the same card "signed" by him... he signed it the same way. I knew it wasn't him ahead of time, but was just curious how he would sign it. I count it as a success.

That is funny.
Congrats on the successes!

 

[houbb]

Yeah, Fleer messed up big time on that card. It's definitely not Doerr. Awesome pick ups, though, Andrew! Congrats!

thats funny, congrats

 

[rangersfan1982]

Thanks guys!

Im not an old school Red Sox fan, but Im sure someone knows who the picture is of. If that guy still alive, maybe he'll sign it too. That would be a cool dual!!

Congrats on the successes!

 

[rangersfan1982]

You have got Doerr so many other times that the last one just diversifies your collection
