TTM, Mail-In Signings and Purchases

Lots of returns today.

I had three ttm returns.  I sent Lloyd Merritt his 1958 Topps, a 1958 Topps Cardinals team card, a blue Staedtler and $10.  He signed my cards nicely and returned my $10.  I have a few other 58 Topps signed by him, but they'll all in fine black marker.

Masanori Murakami signed four cards for me from Japan. 

And Art Mahaffey signed a couple cards, including another 1962 Post for my son.

I bought a few cards from Tom Orr, including a nice 1970 Topps Batting Leaders card signed by Rod Carew, Reggie Smith and Tony Oliva.

I received another Grand Slam print back from an Ozzie Smith signing.  Like always, I asked for the Beckett sticker to be placed on the back, but it got placed on the front.  The promoter apologized, but it's no big deal.  Just my preference.

And I received three cards back from a former-Twin Lenny Faedo signing.

I have some authenticated cards back from a group JSA/CGC submission, but I had them held at a local store rather than delivered to my house since it required a signature.  I'll pick them up later today or tomorrow.
