Riggs TTM Thread

[DeadHorse]

Cory Luebke (in a '70/'80s style retro Pads uniform) on a custom '81 Topps, Ed Asner on a custom '66 Topps football (television screen) design, Johnny Robinson (KC Chiefs), Paul Sorrento ('95 Indians), Craig Newsome ('96 Packers), Frank Winters ('96 Packers), Bob Skinner on a '60 Topps, Bob Boyd ('60s Colts), Ahman Green (on a 2+ year wait), and Scott May ('76 IU Nat'l Champs, NBA Bulls). Unfortunately the day was imperfect (although my biggest day ever); Bruno Sammartino sent back my LJN Wrestling figure poster unsigned with no note, request, etc. I knew with Bruno that was a chance but thought I would take a shot anyway. Believe me....while things had been a steady trickle, this was a huge payoff after a lot of sends. Some day, I will do a thread. I just don't have the time and patience right now. I feel that a thread will slow my sending down the way that wearing pants slowed Wilt Chamberlain down....:)

Nice haul, Mr. Riggs. Crazy day for me again today and great minds think alike. I also got Syzmanski and added Alice Hohlmayer (OSU/AAGPBL), Will Shields, Marty Lyons, Fred Kendall (baseball Pads/Indians), Honky Tonk Man (yes, the wrestler) and Tommy Brooker (on a '65 Topps tall boy). Combine Tuesday and today only and I had 18 returns.
