Another TTM Success From Jim Gott

This TTM success from Jim Gott was another one of those TTM efforts to thin out a player's cards from my boxes.  I had been gathering Gott's cards again for some time and finally pulled the trigger on getting them in the mail.  The above 1988 Donruss Baseball's Best was the card that pushed me to send to Gott again. These are really nice cards; those orange and black borders New great.

I also got a 1994 Fleer Ultra, 1994 Donruss, 1993 Fleer and 1993 Score signed by Gott.  It's funny how similar the Fleer and Score cards are.

I mailed to Gott on January 8 and got the cards back on February 6, for a 29-day TAT. 

TTM Success - Jim Gott

Some late 80s to mid-90s cards were added to my autograph album with this TTM success from pitcher, Jim Gott.  I had held his cards in my "to be TTMed" box for a while, then finally got them in the mail.  I was glad to get the above 1994 Score Gold Rush card signed.  I have a ton of 1994 Score, but that box is at the bottom of my stack of boxes.  I should get in there sometime soon and pull some cards.

I got a coupld cards signed out of Gott's Topps run, a 1989 and a 1994.  I also had a really nice 1993 Flair.  Flair is such a nice set; I always enjoy getting those signed.  Finally, I had a 1994 Topps Finest, which also turned out great.

Gott (b. 1959) played in the majors from 1982 to 1995 for the Blue Jays, Giants, Pirates and Dodgers.  He had a record of 56-74 with 837 strike outs and a 3.87 ERA.

I mailed to Gott on May 21 and got the cards back on September 11, for a 113-day TAT.

More 50/50s From Jackson in AZ

My buddy, Jackson in Arizona, sent back some more of the cards that he had gotten signed for me this summer.  He has had to send the stuff back in phases, as he has most of the stuff I sent scattered about his room.

Still, some good stuff got signed, and I am really happy because of it.  Jackson hooked me up, and I was able to add a ton to my album.

I had sent to Eddie Taubensee TTM and got some cards back, but these two above weren't represented, so it was nice to get them out of my box and into the album.  The Donruss Joe Oliver might have been nice to try to get signed myself, but he had gotten really tough last year when he was a coach with Salem.  He didn't return this season, so it was a moot point.

This assortment was also nice.  I was informed later that Jim Gott was not the pitcher on the Giants leaders card, even though he signed it.  I will need to send to the proper pitcher on the card.  Someone told me, but the name escapes me.

Thanks for getting these signed, Jackson!  I really appreciate it.
