I had a TTM request out to Bob Tewksbury back in 2016 or so, but never got the cards back. I saw that he was signing, so I tried again, and this time, the cards came back with no problem. I got this 1986 Topps Traded signed, which turned out really well.
I also got these 1987 Topps done. If you look closely, the one on the right is actually a buyback that I pulled recently. I figured that I woud give it a shot and see if I could get both of them signed. He did, and I am happy.
Tewksbury (b. 1960) played in the majors from 1986 to 1998 for the Yankees, Cubs, Cardinals, Rangers, Padres and Twins. He had a record of 110-102, 812 strike outs and and ERA of 3.92. He was an All Star in 1992 and finished third in the NL Cy Young voting that season.
I mailed to Tewksbury on October 22 and got the cards back on December 15, for a 54-day TAT.
