Another TTM Success From Steve Hargan

Another TTM success came in from former pitcher, Steve Hargan, when I raided Conrad's boxes for some vintage cards.  The above 1975 Topps Mini and the below 1975 Topps came out of Conrad's stuff. 
I had found the 1967 Topps in my collection (left), as well as the 1977 Topps (right).  The 67 came about because I filled a few set needs for my 1967 set, and this one was a filler card that had been upgraded.

The silver Sharpie that Hargan used was different.  The signatures don't stand out too well, especially in the scans. Still, the cards are signed and now have a home in my album. 

I mailed to Hargan on January 31 and got the cards back on February 17, for a 17-day TAT.

TTM Success - Steve Hargan

I liked these two cards that I gt back from Steve Hargan TTM.  1976 Topps might seem like a plain set, but really, it is very colorful.  Yes, compared to the trippy 1975 and out there 1972 offerings, 76 can seem a bit ordinary.  The cards really pop when scanned, and it is a pretty decent set. I have a bunch, still, and want to try to get some more out of my box and scanned.
On the other hand, yes, 1969 Topps is pretty plain.  The colors are a bit duller, but it can be a sharp set, depending on the cards.  They do look really nice when signed, too.

Hargan (b. 1942) played in the majors from 1965 to 1972 and 1974 to 1977 for the Indians, Rangers, Blue Jays and Braves.  He had a career record of 87-107 with 891 strike outs and a 3.92 ERA.  He was an All Star in 1967.

I mailed to Hargan on October 1 and got the cards back on October 14, for a 13-day TAT.
