Another TTM Success From Jerry Browne

Here are some mid-90s cards I cleared out of my box to send out TTM to Jerry Browne. The above 1993 Topps turned out great.

I also got a 1993 Pinnacle and a 1994 Score. Both of these cards are very similar, and turned out well.

I mailed to Browne on January 6 and got the cards back on January 17, for an 11-day TAT.  

Another TTM Success From Danny Tartabull

A year ago, this 1993 Pinnacle came back signed by Jose Tartabull.  I finally got around to send to Danny Tartabull a year later to complete the card. 

I had gotten Danny Tartabull in 2017 and 2020, so this was the third time I got him TTM.  The card is so dark, it is hard to distinguish the autos, but it is complete. 

I mailed to Tartabull on August 10 and got the card back on September 28 for a 49-day TAT.  I paid his fee of $10/card.

TTM Success - Frank Bolick

A few TTMs have trickled in slowly lately; they've slowed down since I have sent a lot less lately with the season starting.  I got this one from Frank Bolick that took some early 90s cards out of the boxes.

Bolick (b. 1966) played in the majors in 1993 and 1998 for the Expos and Angels.  He had 52 hits, 5 home runs and a .202 batting average.

I mailed to Bolick on March 27 and got the cards back on April 12, for a 16-day TAT. 

TTM Success - Joe Kmak

Here are a couple middle 90s card that I got signed TTM from Joe Kmak.  The above 1993 Bowman turned out nicely.

I also got a 1993 Pinnacle signed, and it also turned out great.

Kmak (b. 1963) played in the majors in 1993 and 1995 for the Brewers and Cubs.  He had 37 hits, 1 home run and a .227 batting average.

I mailed to Kmak on December 7 and got the cards back on December 19, for a 12-day TAT. 

TTM Success - Jose Tartabull

The 1967 Topps above that I got back signed from Jose Tartabull is interesting because it looks like it was double printed.  It looks like it was supposed to be 3D.  It wasn't, but does look interesting.

I also got Tartabull on a 1964 Topps, a 1966 Topps and a 1993 Pinnacle Idols.  The Idols card will be sent to Danny Tartabull soon. 

Tartabull (b. 1938) played in the majors from 1962 to 1970 played for both the Kansas City and Oakland As, as well as the Red Sox.  He had 484 hits, 2 home runs and a .261 batting average.

I mailed to Tartabull on September 30 and got the cards back on October 7, for a 7-day TAT.  I paid his fee of $5/card.

TTM Success - John Cummings

Here is a TTM success from John Cummings that brought back a few nice mid-90s cards for my autograph album.   The above 1996 Fleer glossy parallel turned out nicely.

I also got a 1994 Donruss and a 1993 Pinnacle signed.

Cummings (b. 1969) played in the majors from 1993 to 1997 for the Mariners, Dodgers and Tigers.  He had a record of 10-15 with 114 strike outs and a 5.33 ERA.

I mailed to Cummings on March 13 and got the cards back on March 28, for a 15-day TAT. 

TTM Success - Terry Jorgensen

Some mid-90s Junk Wax cards came back signed TTM from Terry Jorgensen.  The above 1994 Fleer turned out nicely, and was a welcome addition to the autograph album.  I didn't open much 1994 fleer for whatever reason, so I don't have many cards from that set in any of my boxes.  When I can add one, I like to see it get added to the album.

I also got a 1993 Fleer and a 1993 Pinnacle signed by Jorgensen.  All of the cards that I had him sign turned out nicely.

Jorgensen (b. 1966) played in the majors in 1989, 1992 and 1993 for the Twins.  He had 56 hits, 1 home run and a .240 batting average.

I mailed to Jorgensen on October 31 and got the cards back on January 17, for a 78-day TAT.

TTM Success - Rick Trlicek

These are two cards from the 1990s that I was able to get signed TTM from Rick Trlicek.  An interesting last name made it easy to spot him in my boxes.  I was glad to move these two into the album.  I have a ton of 1994 Score, and I rarely am able to get into that box, since it is at the bottom of a large stack of 5,000-count boxes in my closet.

When I went to a show in Virginia last year, I picked up a box that had a bunch of 1993 Pinnacle.  I didn't have many of these at the time, so it was nice to add something different to the boxes, even though they came out of the Junk Wax Era.  Both cards turned out nicely from the TTM success.

Trlicek (b. 1969) played in the majors from 1992 to 1994 and 1996 to 1997 for the Blue Jays, Dodgers, Red Sox and Mets.  He had a record of 5-8 with 66 strike outs and a 5.23 ERA.

I mailed to Trlicek on November 10 and got the cards back on December 6, for a 26-day TAT.

TTM Success - Sam Militello

This TTM success from Sam Militello is highlighted by the awesome Carolina League all star card that I happened to find in one of the boxes from my former LCS. I was really happy to get this signed; I am also disappointed that there still is no Carolina League All Star game this season. I doubt they'll reinstate one; they haven't even put out a Carolina League top prospects set like other leagues have done. MLB taking over the minors still has me irritated.

Anyway, I had quite a few cards for Militello and I was able to send them off. They all turned out nicely.

Militello (b. 1969) played in the majors from 1992 to 1993 for the Yankees. He had a record of 4-4 with 47 strike outs and a 3.89 ERA. I mailed to Militello on March 28 and got the cards back on April 23, for a 26-day TAT.
