TTMs are flowing back into my mailbox, after what felt like a long dry spell. I have sent off all sorts of different types of cards, even venturing back into the box of vintage football cards that my friend, Max, gave me. This TTM success, however, was from Bill Plummer on some nice 70s cards and a 1992 Topps from when he was a manager.
Plummer's signature is neat and compact, but looks great on the cards that I sent. I mailed out a 1973 Topps, 1976 Topps, 1977 Topps and a 1992 Topps. All of the cards turned out great.
Plummer (b. 1947) played in the majors in 1968 and from 1970 to 1978 for the Cubs, Reds and Mariners. He had 168 hits, 14 home runs and a .188 batting average.
He managed the 1992 Mariners to a 64-98 record (.395 win %) during his only stint as a manager.
I mailed to Plummer on November 8 and got the cards back on January 14, for a 67-day TAT.
