2026 National Free Signer - Chuck Knoblauch

Chuck Knoblauch was the next free signer at this year's National. I was excited to get him because I had found so many of his cards in the lead up to the show. I had gotten him once before; by way of TTM back in 2021. I also had met him at a past National when I had a free photo voucher with him. I couldn't find my photo before I left for the show, however.

I had gotten a couple Knoblauch vouchers and then was able to get a bunch more cards signed when they called wild cards on him. That was great, because it helped me not to have to put a bunch of stuff back in my boxes. 

Knoblauch was nice enough. He didn't really say a whole lot, but wasn't rude or anything like that.

Another TTM Success From Charles Nagy

Another TTM success came in from former Indians pitcher, Charles Nagy. This time around, he signed the above 1998 Topps, which looks great.

He also signed a 1991 Donruss The Rookies (above, left), which came out of a cheap set i picked up at the National last year. Above, middle, is a 1995 Topps Cyberstats and above, right is a 1996 Topps.

I mailed to Nagy on December 2 and got the cards back on December 16, for a 14-day TAT.
