Another TTM Success From Miguel Tejada

Miguel Tejada was the subject of another private signing that I took part in recently. I had gotten him before, but had put aside a few nice cards that I wanted to add to the autograph album. The above 2006 Fleer Lumber Company turned out great.

The blue background of this 2005 Bowman Heritage really pops, and the signature is a nice compliment. I was glad that I found this card in my Orioles box and could send it out for signature.

I mailed to the signing on March 7 and got the cards back on September 9, for a 186-day TAT. I paid a total of $68.00.

Another TTM Success From Terry Adams

Almost 10 years ago, I received a TTM success from former pitcher, Terry Adams. That was November 2016. Fast forward to 2026, I foubd the above 2002 Topps Chrome refractor of Adams at the National in a bargain bin. I added it to my pile and brought it back with me to send TTM.

I got home and looked through the 2003 and 2004 Topps partial sets that I habe and pulled his cards from there to send, as well. I was glad to get a couple more cards out of those boxes and send them along.

I mailed to Adams on August 14 and got the cards back on September 8, for a 25-day TAT. 

Another TTM Success From Khris Davis

Another private signing I was interested in came up; another opportunity to get a few cards I liked signed by Khris Davis. I had the above 2019 Topps On-Demand Black & White put aside for the next signing I saw. I don't know where I found this card, but I liked it and had to add it to the album. 

I also sent this 2019 Donruss Optic Action All Stars along. Anither cool card that looks great in the album. 

I have a special drawer in a cabinet for cards that I really want to get signed, and I pull from there for most of the private signings that I see. I can't wait to continue to chip away at that stack.

I mailed to the signing on June 22 and got the cards back on September 8, for a 78-day TAT. I paid a fee of $36.00.

TTM Success - Alexander Muren

A couple more cards that I found in the bargain bin at the National got signed TTM and added to the autograph album recently. Here are two 2012 Bowman card signed by Alexander Muren.

He signed a blue parallel and a chrome refractor. Both look great.

Muren (b. 1991) was a 12th round pick by the Twins in the 2012 June Amateur Draft out of Cal State Northridge. He played in the minors from 2012 to 2015 and 2017 in the Twins system, reaching AA. He had a record of 20-10 with 207 strike outs and a 2.68 ERA.

I mailed to Muren on August 12 and got the cards back on September 5 for a 24-day TAT. 

TTM Success - Joe Theismann

While going through the boxes at the National, this 2024 Topps Chrome football card of Joe Theismann really stood out. I knew he signed TTM, so it was an easy choice to pick the card up. I was glad I did, because the card looks great.

Theismann (b. 1949) played professionally from 1974 to 1985 for the Redskins. He threw for 25,206 yards and 160 touchdowns. He was the 1983 AP NFL MVP, AP Offensive Player of the Year. He won Super Bowl XVII with the Redskins on January 30, 1983. The Redskins beat the Dolphins 27-17.

I mailed to Theismann on August 10 and got the card back on August 29, for a 19-day TAT. I paid his fee of $10.00.

Another TTM Success From Derin McMains

When I found and pulled this card at the National, I had already forgotten that I got Derin McMains TTM back in 2024. I pulled this 2007 Bowman blue parallel and added it to my pile. 

I got home and searched my 2007 box and found this 2007 Bowman Chrome. I could have saved myself some time had I searched here and saw that I already had gotten a 2007 Bowman Chrome signed during that initial TTM submittal. Oh well. Of course, I pulled a few other guys during that pass through the box.

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

TTM Success - Chuck Tiffany

Yet another card that I picked up at the National came back signed TTM. This is a 2005 Bowman Heritage Blue Backs insert of Chuck Tiffany. I found it in one of the boxes at the show and figured I'd give it a shot to try him TTM. It came back looking great.

Tiffany (b. 1985) was a second round pick by the Dodgers in the 2003 June Amateur Draft out of Charter Oak High School in California. He played in the minors from 2003 to 2006 and 2008 in the Dodgers and Rays systems. He would reach AA before spending a few seasons in the independent leagues. He had a record of 17-13 with 322 strike outs and a 4.00 ERA.

I mailed to Tiffany on August 12 and got the card back on August 27, for a 15-day TAT.
