TTM Success - Charlie Manuel

It took me two tries, but I was able to get a TTM success from Charlie Manuel.  I believe I sent off the same cards in both attempts, but the second attempt was the charm here.  The cards turned out great.  This one is a 2010 Topps Heritage and the one below is a 2011 Heritage.
Manuel (b. 1944) played in the majors from 1969 to 1972 and 1974 to 1975 for the Twins and Dodgers.  He had 76 hits, 4 home runs and a .198 batting average.

He managed in the majors from 2000 to 2002 and 2005 to 2013 for the Indians and Phillies.  He had a record of 1,000-826 (.548) and won the World Series with the Phillies in 2008.  His Phillies also appeared in the 2009 World Series, losing to the Yankees.

I mailed to Manuel on January 23 and got the cards back on February 11, for a 19-day TAT.
