TTM Success - Aaron Sele

Taking a small break from the 1987 pursuit, I got a couple nice mid-90s cards signed by former pitcher, Aaron Sele.  The above 1994 Finest was what spurred the TTM request, and it turned out fairly well.  They don't scal all that great, but the card looks nice in person.
I also added a 1995 Topps.  Sele personalized the cards, but that was fine with me.

Sele (b. 1970) played in the majors from 1993 to 2007 for the Red Sox, Rangers, Mariners, Angels, Dodgers and Mets.  He had a career record of 148-112 with 1,407 strike outs and a 4.61 ERA.  He was an All Star in 1998 and 2000.  He finished a career-best 5th in the Cy Young Award voting in 1999.

I mailed to Sele on April 27, 2017, and got the cards back on July 9, 2018, for a 438-day TAT.  He signed two of the four cards I sent.  He sent one back unsigned and kept one.
