87 Topps Pickup - Andy Allanson

Apparently, Andy Allanson doesn't sign TTM.  I've checked.  So, when I finally saw a signed 87 pop up for sale in one of the Facebook groups I'm in, I grabbed it.  I was confident that the card was legit, because the person selling it is a fellow builder of the signed set.  He wanted to upgrade this card due to a small blemish on the back, and I took it for my set.

Allanson (b. 1961) played in the majors from 1986 to 1989, 1991 to 1993 and 1995 for the Indians, Tigers, Brewers, Giants and Angels.  He had 357 hits, 16 home runs and a .240 batting average.

I picked the card up for $50.00, which seems high, but since Allanson signatures are hard to get, I went with it.
