Hello all,
I have the opportunity to attend the Joe DiMaggio Legends game on Jan. 29th, 2011.
There will be at least 50 former players signing.
Here is the link:

Personally, I'm only trying to get one of each player, and in some cases, none, so here is what I am proposing:
If you have cards (unless other arrangements are made for another item which would have to be a pretty convincing case), I'd like to stick to cards or, index and such) of the following players who you need desperately signed. Send them to me with a SASE, and I will try to get them signed for you, and send them back, or at worst case, I just send them back unsigned.
Here is the list of players who are scheduled for 2011:
alex arias, bruce aven, stan bahnsen, paul blair, blomberg, bob bolin, ricky bones, dennis boyd, fred cambria, bert campaneris, rico carty, paul casanova, orlando cepeda (no)chris chambliss, doug clemens, tommy davis, andre dawson (no), orestes destrade, al downing, oscar gamble, wayne garrett, tony gonzalez, wayne granger, chris hammond, jackie hernandez, al hrabosky, willie horton, jay johnstone, darold knowles, ed kranepool, phil linz, elliott maddox, dennis martinez, rudy may, jim mcandrew, minnie minoso, rich nye, john o'donoghue, john odom, amos otis, fritz peterson, fred quilici, dennis rasmussen, brooks robinson(no), cookie rojas, ken rudolph, art shamsky, roy sievers, ron swoboda, ron taylor, tony taylor, anthony telford, al weis, roy white, bart zeller?)
What is my stake in this? Well not financial. My almost 8 year old son, Shane, has got the baseball bug much to my delight. What I am looking for are donations to his collection, in any form, which doesn't bear mention now. That's the beauty of this deal. You send whatever you think is fair value, no questions. You'd be trusting me with your items, and I'd be trusting you to give what you feel the deal was worth.
I can accept no more than 2 items for the players listed, as I think guys wouldn't sign more than 2, 3 tops. I am also requesting that a one per person limit on indivdual players. If you need 15 guys, I'll try to get you all 15, but just one of each.
The game itself is on January 29th, 2011 so I guess timing is an issue. The cutoff date to accept would have to be the 27th to make sure I had them.
Being in Florida I don't have access to Arizona spring training teams. May be interested in setting up something there if this goes well.
I'm just a collector looking for ways to keep my boy interested. Let me know your thoughts please. PM's are OK
