Some Signed Cards From Michael

Toward the end of the Wood Ducks season, my friend Michael came back down to visit.  During his visit, we traded some IP autos, and I ended up with some nice stuff for my album.  One of the highlights was this 1987 Topps Gary Roenicke for the set.  I thought I had Roenicke already, but it turns out that I didn't.  Now I do have it and the Earth can continue to spin.

I grabbed quite a few 2017 Heritage Minors, and even some extras of these that I can use as trade bait.

Michael got a ton of cards signed by Jay Bell, so I picked a few that looked nice, and added those to the pile.

I needed Butch Davis on something other than the 1985 Topps that I had gotten TTM.  This 1984 Donruss is pretty cool looking, and I don't have very many of them.

Finally, I added these.  The Denard Span 2017 Topps looks really cool with the Wrigley ivy in the background.

Thanks for the deal, Michael!

TTM Success - Gary Roenicke

I got a TTM success on Tuesday from former Oriole, Gary Roenicke, one I have had out for quite a while.  I got this nice 1980 Topps signed in blue sharpie.

I also gut a 1982 Fleer, 1983 Topps, 1986 Topps and a 1986 Topps Traded.  The all came out great, but the 1983 Topps is especially nice, since he inscribed it "83 WS Champs".

Roenicke (b, 1954) played in the majors from 1976 and 1978 to 1988 for the Expos, Orioles, Yankees and Braves.  He had 670 hits, 121 home runs and a .247 batting average over his career.  He won the World Series in 1983 with the Orioles.

I mailed to Roenicke on April 18 and got the cards back on July 5, for a 78-day TAT.
