Received Milt Pappas's signature on my card already signed by Eddie Yost commemorating the Angels first game. Yost was the first hitter and Pappas pitched to him. I sent that card to Ken Aspromonte today for his sig. He looks like an excellent TTMer and he was the second hitter ever for the Angels. Eventually I'll run out of room on the card, run out of living players, or not get it returned to me. I hope the first one happens.

Received Curt Simmons and on my Whiz Kids card, and Ken Aspromonte added his name to my card commemorating the Angels first game. That card is starting to show signs of wear from being mailed so much, but I think I'll see if I can get Bobby Cerv to add his name. It seems he is a good signer if you remember to include a picture of Lincoln in your envelope.

Gino Cimoli signed my card commemorating the last game at Ebbets Field; he scored the final run in the ballpark. His hand writing is very shaky, but it's a nice addition. I actually printed the photo of Ebbets, and the text after I received the card back signed. I felt something needed to be added to it.

Received Bobby Richardson today, who added a couple of nice inscriptions, and added a signed baseball card. I also received my first, and likely last, eBay purchase. I was looking for a deadball era player, and Edd Roush worked out well. He played in the Federal League, he played in the 1919 World Series, and he is in the hall of fame. It also helped that he lived until 1988, so I was able to get him for $30. I don't plan on reselling it, so I broke it out of the PSA/DNA case (which was surprisingly easy) and printed on some additions to the blank index card.

Bob Cerv added his name to my Angels first game card. I think that will be the last sig I try to get on this one as there are not any more players who are living and are likely TTM signers. I wouldn't mind filling up that little space on the left with Eli Grba, but he's too risky. Maybe he is tired of people teasing him about the shortage of vowels in his last name.

No, I overlooked him somehow. Thanks for pointing that out. It seems he'll sign for $5, so I think I'll try it.

Received my signed IC back from Art "Superman" Pennington, and he added a signed card of his own. I included a $6 donation. Sadly, Pennington is one of the few players left from the pre integration era when the Negro Leagues were still on par with the major leagues.
