TTM Success - Ron Reed

Other than being slightly off-center, the above 1973 Topps card of Ron Reed is pretty sharp.  The card is the driving force behind me wanting to send off to Reed.  His signature is very simple, but it fits the card perfectly.  I have a bunch of signed 1973 Topps, and have some more to send out.  
I also added the above 1977 Topps to the autograph album. I haven't added many of them lately, so this was an easy choice of a second card to send off.

Reed (b. 1942) played in the majors from 1966 to 1984 for the Braves, Cardinals, Phillies and White Sox.  He had a record of 146-140 with 1,481 strike outs and a 3.46 ERA.  He was an All Star in 1968.  He won the World Series in 1980 with the Phillies.

I mailed to Reed on January 6 and got the cards back on January 16, for a 10-day TAT.  I paid his fee of $10/card.
