Catching Up After the Long Weekend

I was gone over the Holiday weekend and came home to a lot of returns and purchases.  Too many to comment on them all, but they include 9 cards (yes, 9!) that I sent to Bob Skinner.  I don't normally send nearly this many cards, but I included cash when he normally doesn't charge as well as a pen for him to use and keep.

I received three cards back from a Ted Simmons signing.  He didn't sign where I requested on the 1976 leaders card, and the Beckett sticker I paid for on the 71 Topps is very crooked and nearly overhanging the edge of the back of the card.

I bought a few Joe Coleman signed cards as well, after finding some on eBay that were reasonably priced and of which I am pretty sure are authentic.

I also bought several dozen signed 1982 Topps of more common players from a seller on eBay for between $1.25 and $3.50 each, to jumpstart that set.

I bought a few cards from Tom Orr on eBay, including two Ryan Howard cards, a 1982 Tim Raines Highlights card and a Dave Lopes 1974 Topps.

Here's a dump of all the scans.  I'll post again today if I get more in today's mail, but I'm not seeing anything in my Informed Delivery email.
