A Closer Look At My Latest Autographs

I've returned home from New York and had some time to scan in my latest autographs.

Jeff Nelson signed a ball and a 2004 Topps Heritage for me.




Rod Carew signed my 2000 Fleer Greats of the Game.



I just found out that Jim Kaat will be signing at Tom Frantzen's in Mounds View in early September, somehow affiliated with the Bob Feller Museum, since I purchased my tickets from the Museum's web site.  $30 per autograph.  My older son has a bobblehead he wants signed, and I have a Wheeldon print and will also probably get a picture signed.

Made It!


Sully and I got our autographs! It was probably 5 minutes past the time he was supposed to stop signing, and I think he signed about another 10 minutes after us. Whew!!

Getting Closer


Not there yet, but at least I can see him. I'm feeling a little better about it, and getting my hopes up.

Not Looking Good

We haven't moved very far. Carew is out on the field throwing out the first pitch. He'll sign for another 30 minutes. I think our chances of getting his autograph are very slim.

I don't think I've ever been in a line that I didn't get through. There's a first time for everything I guess.

Haven't Moved Yet!


Sully has managed to keep his spirits up despite the fact that it's been 30 minutes and the line hasn't moved yet.

Made It Inside

The line is huge!!!! Not all these people were outside. I think we'll still get an autograph, but it will take a while, and there's no way we'll get two.

The line isn't as bad as I thought it would be. We're about 45 minutes early.
