Joe Mauer FanHQ Signing Return

I believe this was the first signing since Joe was elected to the Hall of Fame.  Prices weren't too bad, and FanHQ does an amazing job with their signings, so I decided to get a few premium items signed. 

I bought a fairly rare Season Ticket Holder bobblehead of Joe in a powder blue uniform, and also a set of five of his SGA bobbleheads from 2019.  I sent in just one from that set.  Also, I sent in the #7 Metrodome seatback that is part of my set of four Metrodome seats.







Earlier this year, I sent in the #6 seatback to a Tony Oliva signing.


That leaves #4 to be signed by Paul Molitor, and I guess #5 will be signed by Michael Cuddyer, unless anyone has a better idea?

Catching Up

I've fallen behind this week but have received a handful of ttm returns and purchases.

I purchased this 1966 Topps Mudcat Grant from my collecting friend Randy via eBay.

And I've received ttm returns from Rich McKinney, Chuck Estrada, Bennie Daniels and Bobby Richardson.














Bobby Richardson wrote a note on the protective cardboard for my magazine about Elroy Face thinking that perhaps he should have won the 1960 World Series MVP Award, and the Corvette that came with it!  I love getting back personal notes like this.
