New TTM Lovin’……..

Posted by wickedortega on 11/10/2009

Got two in the mail today which as always puts a smile on my face. The first one i had sent out about 3 months ago and i taught i wasn’t going to see them again. But there back!! Nice to know that even if it takes a little while they always find there way home. Ok on to the first TTM return…. Dean Palmer, as a youngen growing up i really liked Dean. His power was great and overall a good hitter. I remember him in the 98′ All-Star Game (the only one he made) and me saying “man i would love to have his autograph”. Well the time has come, I sent Dean these cards and he sent them all back signed! Thanks Dean for taking the time to sign these for me, you made a wish, i wished a long time ago come true.DSC08692

Cat Osterman TTM

Posted by wickedortega on 11/07/2009

With all the drama thats been going on with Topps and Cat Osterman redemption and relic cards not being made, which sucks for allot of peeps. I took the old fashion way of geting an auto and sent her a letter with the card i wanted signed. And of couse the great Cat signed and sent back to me the card i had sent her. I know its not the same but if you really want an auto of a great Olympiad i suggest you stop by her cool-ass website which ca be found here http://www.catosterman.com/ and take the time, write her a letter and send her a card or two to get signed!! Cat thanks so much!! You rule!!DSC08695
