TTM Success - Paul Marak

Here are some early 90s that I was able to get signed TTM from Paul Marak.  When I sent off the cards, I learned that Marak now lives in nearby Goldsboro.  I got a nice 1991 Leaf signed.  I remember when Leaf came out; it was considered a premium set.  The packs cost a good bot more than normal Topps or Donruss.
Speaking of, here is a 1991 Donruss, 1991 Topps and a 1990 ProCards AAA.

Marak (b. 1965) was one of only 50 former major leaguers to have been born in the UK. He played in the majors in 1990 for the Braves.  He went 1-2 with 15 strike outs and a 3.69 ERA.

I mailed to Marak on January 8 and got the cards back on January 16, for an 8-day TAT.

TTM Success - Scott Leius

I had a bunch of Scott Leius cards to choose from for this TTM success, and I'm happy with my selections that I sent out.  The above 1994 Collector's Choice turned out really well.  I like the Metrodome cameo in the background.
This 1993 Select also turned out really well.  I love horizontal cards, and this one looks good.
The 1991 Gold Leaf rookie looks better than the scan.  I also was able to add a 1995 Topps.

Leius (b. 1965) played in the majors from 1990 to 1996 and 1998 to 1999 for the Twins, Indians and Royals.  He had 375 hits, 28 home runs and a .244 batting average.  He won the World Series with the Twins in 1991.

I mailed to Leius on September 11 and got the cards back on September 23, for a 12-day TAT.
