2021 National Free Signer - Frank White

Frank White was another of the free signers at the National this year who I had added to my 1987 Topps set via a private signing.  I did have several of his cards, so I picked a few nice ones to match the number of vouchers that I had, and added them to my autograph album.  The above 1990 Topps is a nice card; I have always liked this design.

White also signed a 1986 Topps and a 1988 Donruss Baseballs Best.  Those cards really look nice, and I have a bunch, still, that I can use for future signings, if the need arises.

I am getting close to wrapping up my recaps of the 2021 National; just two more free signers to go.  Then, I'll be back on the TTM recap train, as this has put me even farther behind than I was before.  It's a happy problem to have, though.  I won't run out of stuff to talk about for quite a while.

TTM Success - Frank White

I was able to knock off two more 1987 Topps with this TTM success from Frank White.  I got him through PastPros, and was really happy with the results.

It'll be tough getting George Brett on this one, but it is possible.  I may have to drop some money on it, but it can be had.

White (b. 1950) played in the majors from 1973 to 1990 for the Royals.  He had 2,006 hits, 160 home runs and a .255 batting average.  He was a 5-time All Star (1978, 1979, 1981, 1982 and 1986) and won the Gold Glove Award 8 times.  He won the World Series with the Royals in 1985.  He appeared on the 1996 Hall of Fame ballot, where he received 3.8% of the vote.

I mailed to White on March 7 and got the cards back on March 16, for a 9-day TAT.  I paid his fee of $8/card.
