Another return and a purchase. First, I bought a 1971 Topps Ernie Banks from Steve on SCN, who got me the Gates Brown card signed.
Also, Bob Locker signed his 1971 and 1972 Topps.
I keep checking the Twins web site to see if the TwinsFest schedule is out. It's not. But I noticed they changed the wording around Blyleven's autograph restrictions:
Bert Blyleven
- Will sign only personalized items including flat items, baseballs (no sweet spot) and specialty items signed by multiple players (Homer Hankies, prints, programs, etc.)
- No bats, jerseys or HOF inscriptions
I'm not real happy about this. It's not very fan friendly. A lot of people wrote about how he should be in the Hall of Fame and a lot of fans supported him. Is this how he thanks them? I'm sure his price will be $30 this year, like the other Hall of Famers. For $30, I wouldn't expect that my item would have to be personalized. It looks like Bert has signed a contract with MAB. They are selling baseballs with his HOF inscription for $105! Wow, Bert didn't waste any time cashing in on his Hall of Fame election.
