I had a pretty full mailbox to kick off the week. Three ttm returns, a mail-in signing return and a purchase from Mill Creek.
Dick Calmus signed his 1964 and 1968 Topps.
Steve Hargan signed his 1966, 1967, 1967 Leaders and 1970 Topps nicely in blue sharpie.
And Jose Tartabull kicked off my 1966 Athletics Yearbook project by signing the cover and his inside bio section, as well as his 1966 Topps.
He also wrote a little note on the backing board I used to mail the yearbook, but I can't quite make out what it says. Perhaps, "Good memories" but I don't know the word that starts with a "B". Book, maybe?
I received seven cards back from a John Mayberry signing with Tom Orr. Mayberry signs ttm for $10, and I was able to get these signed for $8 each, filling some holes in my sets.
Finally, I bought a 1971 Topps Dave Concepcion slabbed by Beckett from Mill Creek Sports. Earlier this year I had sent a couple cards into a signing with him which was canceled due to his health. His signing days may be over so I decided to start buying some of his cards for my sets. I have a 1972 Topps coming as well.
