Another TTM Success From Josh Banks

Finally, a 2008 Topps Moments and Milestones has been added to my autograph album.  It might be one of the worst sets ever, but I did want to get one of the cards in my autograph album.  This TTM success from Josh Banks facilitated that.

I had compiled a bunch of Banks's cards and he signed them with a fading blue Sharpie.  Still, I'm glad I got the cards back signed.

I think this 2008 Topps Finest came out of my card shop boxes.it suffered the worst from the dead Sharpie, but it is still signed.

I mailed to Banks on March 29 and got the cards back on April 19, for a 21-day TAT. 

More Mail From Roger

I am slowly catching up on my mail from the last few weeks and todays post covers a sweet package I got recently from Roger over at "I Don't Know, 3rd Base..."  I had sent him several Tigers cards and in return, he sent me a ton of Orioles stuff as well as some Series 2 Emerald Parallels.

It is really hard to believe that I didn't already have the above Brian Roberts blue refractor from 2008 Finest.  Those are some really nice looking cards, I think.  It is numbered 49/299, not bad!

I really liked this 2010 Topps Chrome Tim Lincecum orange parallel.  I guess Chris will get it in his collection eventually, but for now, I think I will enjoy it myself.

Finally, Roger sent me 23 Series 2 emerald parallels.  I should be coming along nicely on this set.  I really hope to be able to sit down and sort and catalog my needs.  I've been saying it for a while, but I think it really needs to happen.

So, thanks again for the trade, Roger!  I'll continue to keep an eye out for Tigers stuff.  Also, as far as the trade you proposed in your note, please shoot me an email and we can discuss.
