Mark McGwire Private Signing
My most recent card sent out to a signing came back last week, and it turned out great. I sent a 1987 Topps to Mark McGwire, and the card came back with a huge blue signature that looks great.
Al Kaline-Through the Mail
As mentioned on a few of my previous threads, I have recently become interested in the idea of obtaining autographs through the mail. There is a quite a bit of research involved in deciding which former athletes to send my items to, as I don't want to be spending money or using unsigned items on guys I have little to no chance of receiving anything from. So far, this has paid off because up until this point I was 4/4 by sending things to Dirk Nowitzki, Ryne Sandberg, Wade Boggs, and Bobby Doerr. You can read about all of those ventures and what I got signed by looking back on this blog. Back on the 17th of January, I decided to mail an 8x10 photo to former Major Leaguer and Hall of Famer Al Kaline. I chose a photo rather than my preferred choice of official baseball since I read on forums that Mr. Kaline won't sign baseballs through the mail. As such, I found a photo I thought was cool, and sent it to the proper address using the correct channels....
