Tony Oliva 1972 Topps Purchase

After realizing that several of my Twins autographs on 1972 Topps cards, I bought an unsigned one to send to a Rod Carew signing, an unsigned one to send to Bert Blyleven, and since there is no Tony Oliva signing coming up that I'm aware of, I  bought this signed copy with JSA authentication.  

The card has some print marks but is reasonably centered.  It's at least a good filler until he has another signing that I can send to.

Here's the one I got signed at Twinsfest in 2011.  I have no idea why I didn't request blue.


I sent out a handful of ttm requests yesterday, and have been purchasing some Twins Buyback cards with the Topps 50th Anniversary logo on them so send out as well.

On Monday I showed off a 1971 Topps signed by Dave Concepcion since the signing I had last tried to send to was canceled due to his health.  Well, now there's another signing posted for him.  I'll probably send in something, I'm just not sure what yet.
