Riggs TTM Thread

Just sent off to Pouncey last weeks, and I want to get Logan myself as well.

Sweet Mailday Man!

Thanks man.. Good luck with your Pouncey. He seems pretty reliable.

Awesome stuff. You must be cranking out a ton.

Thanks man.. I have been sending out a bunch, Maybe to much... If thats possible..

Well that's a pretty awesome mailday! 6-for-9? That's crazy.

I was surprised myself. Just wish Bob Kuechenberg would have returned my stuff signed. Thats a wierd one there. he's 100% in the database with half a dozen or more successes... re-sending tomorrow with a different note. Guess we will see.

Great mail day!!!

Thanks man..

man your killing it! how many request are you sending out a week?

Thanks.. I try to get out around 10 request a week, sometimes it more, sometimes less but as of late seems like i always have atleast a books worth sitting & ready to go. Try to give myself an allowance of atleast that to spend a week on TTM. I could go a lot higher but think thats a good medium to be at. But when i send in a diecast or when i sent the 8x10's then thats usually all that goes out. Like right now i got probably 17-20 cards sitting on my desk waiting for stamps.


2 successes today..

First Kevin Thomas 1/1, out 8-29, back 9-30. Another nice Colt addition for the collection. Not that he is a house hold name but still have never seen a success from him before so pretty excited about that.

last, Darrall Imhoff 1/1, out 9-22, back 9-30.. Nice HOF success & very quick. Now comes the delima of how to display it? I have all my cards in binders & this obviously wont fit. Any suggestions? Thought about some Index card pages but dont know where to buy those?

Nice pick ups! Especially "The Axe" Think I will send to him when I return from training.


Great minds think alike. My allowance is a book a week as well. And I too have astack of cards on my desk waiting for stamps! Then its always 1 or 2 that jump the pile immediately for a stamp and to send out! :)

Nice mailday, love those 70-71's! & Some info on the pages for binders, they actually make pages for the tall boys. This site also has the pages split in a lot of sizes, stuff is really cheap when you look at it, but you have to buy a decent amount of them

Riggs....I take my "tall boys" and put a penny sleeve over the top of the card to protect the corners, and then slide the card into the 2nd or 3rd row of the 9 pocket pages, that way its not hanging over the top of the book. I leave the sleeve above it empty too....meaning in diagram form....

Hopefully that shows up OK and makes sense.

Thanks for the heads up, Might try deadhorses way of thinking first only because i dont have many tall boys & this is the only one i have autographed so far. im going to look around though, maybe see if they have index card holders. I have a bunch signed & nothing to do with them.. Thanks for the link..
