Another TTM Success From Jim Palmer

There are a bunch of Jim Palmer cards in my collection that I'd love to get signed, and I have been able to get a few done in person and TTM.  The latest round of what I sent him was really nice, in that I got this 2016 Topps Tribute signed, along with my 1972 Topps ERA leaders card that had already been signed by Wilbur Wood.  I have since sent off the 72 Topps to Vida Blue and have gotten it back completed.  I'll show it when I post the Blue success.

I mailed to Palmer on August 20 and got the cards back on August 31, for an 11-day TAT.  I paid a fee of $10/card.

Another TTM Success From Brooks Robinson

A few Brooks Robinson cards have popped up in my box, seemingly coaxing me to send to him TTM again, so I pulled two of them and did just that - I sent TTM to the greatest third baseman of all-time.  The above 2016 Topps Tribute green parallel turned out so great; I was afraid I would dull it a bit when I prepped it.  The card looks awesome, and my fears were for naught.
I also sent this sad-looking 1962 Topps that I had in my collection so that it would end up in my album, as opposed to buried in the box.  This card was well-loved by someone in the past, and now it can take its rightful place among my signed cards in my album.

I mailed to Brooks on March 27 and got the cards back on April 6, for a 10-day TAT.  I paid a fee of $10.00/card.

Card Shop Pickup - 2016 Tribute Brooks Robinson

I picked up a nice card for the Brooks Robinson PC when I was in Matthews last week.  I had asked the shop proprietor if they had any 2016 Orioles that they had pulled recently, and was handed this.  This is a 2016 Topps Tribute Brooks Robinson emerald parallel.  The card is numbered 43/99.

I haven't opened any Tribute this year.  I don't plan on buying any packs, but if I see any good deals on some PC cards, I will probably pick them up.  These are really nice cards.
