TTM Success - Eddie Whitson

Another need for my 1987 set drove me to send off for Eddie Whitson, and I got five cards signed as a result.  The above 1987 Topps looks great, of course.

I also had him sign 1979, 1980, 1983 and 1986 Topps.  His signature was consistent on each.

Whitson (b. 1955) played in the majors from 1977 to 1991 for the Pirates, Giants, Indians, Padres and Yankees.  He had a record of 126-123 with a 3.79 ERA and 1,266 strike outs.  He was an All Star in 1980.

I mailed to Whitson on March 14 and got the cards back on June 29, for a 107-day TAT.
