wsoxfan's TTM thread

I've been out of town for a few days, so I have a backlog of successes to post. I also sent out a couple more requests today:

Zack Burdi
Peter Bourjos
Walter Koenig (Chekov on Star Trek: The Original Series)

First is Vance Law, who signed his '84 Fleer card in blue sharpie. 23 day return from his 1547 W 1970 N Provo, UT address in the TTM database.

Next is Chris Widger, who signed his '05 Topps Total card in black sharpie. 22 day return from his Wilmington Blue Rocks address in the TTM database.

Next is Rich Wortham, who signed his '81 Donruss card in blue sharpie. 22 day return from his Learder, TX address in the TTM database.

Next is John Cangelosi, who signed his '87 Fleer card in blue sharpie. 21 day return from his Homer Glen, IL address in the TTM database.

Next is Phil Bradley, who I really wasn't expecting to get back since I heard he uses PastPros. The catch is he used black ballpoint pen, so it didn't turn out the best. Maybe when people don't send the money, he signs in pen. I'm happy with it anyway. 25 day return from his Sarasota, FL address in the TTM database.

Last is Ron Pruitt, who signed his '81 Topps card in blue sharpie. 24 day return from his Medina, OH address in the TTM database.
Current success rate: 81%!

One success and one failure today. Ross Baumgarten came back RTS from the 1020 Bluff Rd, Glencoe, IL address in the TTM database. I found another one, so will send out again. I also sent back out my requests to Jerry Turner and Bill Almon, both of which came back RTS as well. In addition, I sent out to these guys:

Aaron Bummer
Dylan Covey
Ahmed Best (Jar Jar in Star Wars--I know, but he signs, so why not.)

As for the success, Steve Kemp signed his '83 Donruss card in blue sharpie. 27 day return from his Newport Beach, CA address in the TTM database.
Current success rate: 77%!

On success today. Minor league pitcher Brad Goldberg signed his '16 Birmingham Barons (Double A) team card in silver sharpie. 20 day return from his c/o Charlotte Knights (Triple A) address in the TTM database. The silver looks really nice. Interesting choice.
Current success rate: 78%!

Thank you for sharing your successes with us! Looks like you are off to a great start. Hopefully the Todd Father comes through for you! I am a Reds fan and was thrilled to have added him when he was with my team! Just a FYI, take a chance on a few players on your teams players on top prospect list as well. You can get some big names by mailing before they hit the Bigs! Unfortunately once the mail volume goes up some players stop signing. Love your theme!

BTW: Should you like to look at some successes here is a link to my old photobucket:

This is an addictive hobby!

Yeah, I'm still holding out hope for Frazier. He, Fulmer, and Rodon were the ones I wanted most and I didn't get any back. Hopefully they take mail with them from ST. I've also sent out to quite a few minor leaguers, but have only gotten one back (Goldberg).

Thanks for commenting! You're photo bucket is impressive!

Okay, quick update. I've had two requests returned RTS this weekend, Willie Harris and John Snyder. I can't find another address for Snyder, but I'll send back out to Harris.

I did have one success yesterday; Conor Gillaspie signed his '15 Topps base card in black sharpie. 19 day return from his c/o San Francisco Giants address in the TTM database.

I've had three returns over the past couple of days, one failure and two successes. I got an RTS from Charlie Hough's c/o Inland Empire 66ers address in the TTM database. I'll try the other one.

Yesterday's success is Kevin Bell, who signed his '81 Donruss card in blue sharpie. 34 day return from his Little Chute, WI address in the TTM database.

Today's success is Scott Fletcher, who signed his '84 Topps card in thin blue sharpie. 35 day return from his Fayetteville, GA address in the TTM database. I can't quite make out the inscription--I don't think it's his number. A Bible verse, maybe? Let me know if you can make it out.
Current success rate: 74%!

It's a Bible verse on the Fletcher card.

These are looking really good!
