George Foster Grand Slam Print as Well as Pete Hamm and Jake Wood TTM Returns

My returns backed up just a bit over the last few days as I visited Northern Minnesota.

I sent a Grand Slam print to a George Foster signing.  I didn't notice it until after I scanned it and added it to my web site, but the print appears to be a bit bent.  I didn't notice any damage to the package I received, so who knows how it was damaged. 

Pete Hamm was kind enough to sign his 1971 Topps which was previously signed by Jim Nettles, along with a 71 Twins team card signed by Leo Cardenas, Tom Hall and Bill Zepp.  The 1971 Topps team cards can be tough to get signed and look nice since they are so dark.  With all players having signed in blue sharpie so far, it's about as nice as you can hope for.  I included $20 with my request to Mr. Hamm, despite him not having published anything specific.  I'd like to keep his signing streak going, despite his 20+ year dry spell.

Jake Wood thoughtfully signed the three cards I sent him along with $10.  He signed the 62 and 63 Topps in blue sharpie, and the 64 Tigers team card in ballpoint.  I've seen many players switch pens like this, since the sharpie might be too thick for the team card.  What a nice gesture for a player to ensure that the signature is as legible as possible.
