TTM Success - Steve Scarsone

Here are some mid-90s Junk Wax Era cards that I got signed TTM by Steve Scarsone.  Above is a 1994 Topps Stadium Club, which is always fun due to the old label maker font.  These have really grown on me over the years. 

I also got a 1993 Donruss, showing Scarsone with the Orioles, and a 1994 Score.

Scarsone (b. 1966) played in the majors from 1992 to 1997 and 1999 for the Phillies, Orioles, Giants, Cardinals and Royals.  He had 198 hits, 20 home runs and a .239 batting average. I mailed to Scarsone on February 1 and got the cards back on February 26, for a 25-day TAT. 

Another TTM Success From Tim Salmon

This 1994 Stadium Club Members Only card of Tim Salmon was in my boxes from the old LCS, and I thought it looked pretty cool. I saw a signing come up, so I sent it off, solely to get the card into the autograph album. 

I liked how the card turned out. Members Only was like a chromed out Stadium Club back then.  I didn't have many of them, so I was glad to get this signed.

I sent to the signing on April 13 and got the card back on June 2, for a 50-day TAT.

TTM Success - Scott Hemond

Some nice 90s cards came back signed TTM recently from Scott Hemond.  The signatures on all of the cards came back a little fuzzy; he probably didn't wait long for them to dry before he put them back in the envelope.

Still, I'm happy with what I've got.   He signed a 1994 Collectors Choice, 1990 Score and a 1994 Stadium Club.

Hemond (b. 1965) played in the majors from 1989 to 1995 for the A's, White Sox and Cardinals.  He had 132 hits, 12 home runs and a .217 batting average.

I mailed to Hemond on October 28 and got the cards back on February 6, for a 101-day TAT.

TTM Success - Danny Sheaffer

Some mid-90s cards came back signed TTM from Danny Sheaffer in November.  The above 1994 Stadium Club turned out nicely.  I always enjoyed the 'label maker" font on these cards.  It was a little goofy, but definitely was something different.

I also got a 1994 Donruss and a 1994 Score signed, while Sheaffer included his own custom religious card that he signed.

Sheaffer (b. 1961) played in the majors in 1987, 1989 and from 1993 to 1997 for the Red Sox, Indians, Rockies and Cardinals.  He had 219 hits, 13 home runs and a .232 batting average.

I mailed to Sheaffer on November 8 and got the cards back on November 21, for a 13-day TAT.

2022 National Free Signer - Pat Listach

The common theme among the free signers at this year's National was that I had gotten most of them before, either TTM or at past Nationals.  Pat Listach was someone I got early on TTM.  I didn't have very many of his cards left, but was lucky enough to find a couple prior to the National, like the above 1994 Stadium Club.  I have been complimented on the card already.  This is kind of a forgotten set, in my opinion, but it still a pretty cool design.  I was glad I found this one and can get it in my album.

The 1993 Ultra was another card that I found on my own, and it turned out great.  This is also a great design and will look good in the album.  The 1992 Stadium Club was found at the show itself, since I had extra vouchers for Listach but not enough cards.

Finally, Michael had found this 1993 Upper Deck but didn't want to start a new project by trying for the two Hall of Famers on the card (Molitor and Yount).  I may take it on, or I may just leave this in the album.  We'll have to see.

Listach was pretty nice.  We blew in and out of his line, which was good, since I had so many people I was seeing.

TTM Success - Billy Brewer

Here are some mid-90s junk wax cards that I added to my autograph album via this TTM success from Billy Brewer.  The above 1994 Stadium Club turned out nicely; I had forgotten about this set, but really like it.  The label-maker design was a unique one, to say the least, but it allowed for a full photo on the card, and they tended to look pretty decent.

I also got a 1993 Bowman and a 1994 Fleer Ultra, as well.  Both of these are nice.

Brewer (b. 1968) played in the majors from 1993 to 1999 for the Royals, Yankees, A's and Phillies.  He had a record of 11-11 with 137 strike outs and a 4.79 ERA.

I mailed to Brewer on February 2 and got the cards back on May 20, for a 107-day TAT.

TTM Success - Mike Lansing

This TTM success from Mike Lansing had some nice cards that I found in some of my boxes, the one above I don't believe I had seen before.  I think it came from the old card shop, and appears to have faded a bit.  Still, it is a cool card; a 1994 Stadium Club Members Only.  It turned out pretty well, even with the faded coloring on the card.

I also got a 1997 Bowman Chrome and a 2000 Topps signed by Lansing.

Lansing (b. 1968) played in the majors from 1993 to 2001 for the Expos, Rockies and Red Sox.  He had 1,124 hits, 84 home runs and a .271 batting average.

I mailed to Lansing on January 28 and got the cards back on April 20, for an 82-day TAT.
