TTM > Longest Return 2,099 Days (5+ Years!) > Hubie Brooks!

[mort]

Well this one was a surprise. On May 10, 2006 I sent Hubie Brooks a TTM request as I was about two months into the 1983 Fleer Autograph Project. Then the wait began. I had given up on getting Hubie back (who wouldn't? ) and I traded for the autographed card. Well to my surprise, today I got an envelope in the mail with a stamp from 2006 on it. Needless to say I was shocked when I opened the envelope. Hubie signed all three I sent him. I replaced the one I received in trade with this new one. (Extras are available for trade...)

Just goes to show ... never give up on your through-the-mail autograph requests. (Oh, and never move.... )

I also sent to him around the same time. I'm holding out hope for a return, as well. I guess I better not hold my breath! Congrats on a great success!
