TTM Success - Hubie Brooks

Adding to my signed 1987 Topps set is getting slower and slower.  There aren't many guys left that I need who are living and/or sign.  I was thrilled when I saw a private signing pop up for Hubie Brooks.  I paid for the signing and then my good friend Max bought me one for Christmas. Oof.

Brooks (b. 1956) played in the majors from 1980 to 1994 for the Mets, Expos, Dodgers, Angels and Royals.  He had 1,608 hits, 149 home runs and a .269 batting average.  He was an All Star in 1986 and 1987, and a Silver Slugger Award winner in 1985 and 1986.  He finished 14th in the 1985 NL MVP race. 

I mailed to the signing on November 5 and got the card back on December 20 for a 45-day TAT.  I paid a fee of $50.00.
