TTM Success - Jeff Conine

This 1993 Topps card of Jeff Conine is a card that I had been wanting to get signed TTM for some time now.  I had sent one to him when he was signing briefly, but never got it back.  So, when I saw that he was signing via a private signing recently, I went ahead and sent the card along.  It came back looking great, and I am glad I went ahead and got it done.
I also sent this 2016 Bowman Chrome RC Flashback, since I thought it looked pretty cool.  It also turned out great, and was worth sending in.

Conine (b. 1966) played in the majors in 1990 and from 1992 to 2007 for the Royals, Marlins, Orioles, Phillies, Reds and Mets.  He had 1,982 hits, 214 home runs and a .285 batting average.  He finished 3rd in the 1993 NL Rookie of the Year voting, and was an All Star twice (1994 and 1995).  He won the World Series twice with the Marlins, 1997 and 2003.

He appeared on the 2013 Hall of Fame ballot, but received no votes.

I mailed to the signing on February 23 and got the cards back on April 29, for a 65-day TAT.  I paid a fee of $30.00.
