The Sunday Night Post returns....
Well tonight I have many things to share with you. I finally went and scanned some cards that I have received from purchases and through the mail in the past few weeks.
First is C.J. and Willie. Both of these cards come from a purchase. I glad I got these because I don't think I have them in my collection. They are tough signers.
Andres Galarraga. The "Big Cat" I really enjoyed watching him play first base for the Braves in the late 90's. He was a good first basemen who could hit well as well. I had been looking to get one of these for awhile, and I am happy to finally have one.
Ryan and Carl were two more from a purchase. I am as happy to get Carl Everett as I was to get the Big Cat. Once again he is a player I enjoyed watching late in his career. He is a great hitter, and last I knew he was still playing in an Independent league.
For the long time followers you are familiar with my Brooklyn Dodger project. Ireceived another one back a few days ago from Jim Gentile. He also added an over sized card to the envelope.
Here is a great article about Jim Gentile (Article Link)
Next is Joel Quenneville. He was the coach of the Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks. I am very happy to get this one back. I really like his signature in the silver, and I really like that it is on my own custom card.
Yes!!! A greats of the game sighting. No I haven't given up on this. I just got this back from a private signing. I have practically gotten most that sign through the mail for free. Now I am just waiting to get some of the ones that charge and then also the tough ones. This one was a tough one, and I got it done reasonably cheap. The signature looks great, and I couldn't be happier.
I hope this will suffice for my Sunday Night post. I think that Tuesday m going to try and do my first game analysis. Tennessee plays at 7:00 so look for a 10:00 or so post.
