TTM Success - Rick Rhoden

I added another card to my signed 1987 Topps set through a private signing for Rick Rhoden on sportscollectors.net.  Rhoden's signature turned out really well on this card.

Rhoden (b. 1953) played in the majors from 1974 to 1989 for the Dodgers, Pirates, Yankees and Astros.  He had a career record of 151-125 with 1,419 strike outs and a 3.59 ERA.  He was an All Star in 1976 and 1986.  He was a three-time Silver Slugger Award winner (1984 to 1986) and finished 5th in the NL Cy Young race in 1986.  He appeared on the 1995 Hall of Fame ballot, but didn't receive any votes.

I mailed to the private signing on April 24 and got the card back on June 1, for a 38-day TAT.
