TTM Success - Brian Allard

My 1980 Topps Rangers Future Stars card is now 2/3 of the way complete now that it came back signed from Brian Allard.  I don't mind that it was signed in a different t color than what Jerry Don Gleaton used.  I think it adds character.

Allard (b. 1958) played in the majors from 1979 to 1981 for the Rangers and Mariners.  He had a record of 4-6 with 44 strike outs and a 4.23 ERA.

I mailed to Allard on March 25 and got the card back on April 12, for an 18-day TAT.

  1. Greg M. came to visit my second/third graders and me in Fontana, California, in the 1990s. He was a manager of the San Bernardino Spirit minor-league team. I had invited him to visit my classroom, he showed up one day to talk to my students.
