both those magazines are great. one thing that sticks out is the Johnny Unitas the only auto missing from your magazine. He and his untimely death are a key reason I am much more likely to pay up for a signature I have been chasing. I met him once and got a single item signed but being a colts Fan I had a stack of items I planned on getting signed. He was a nice guy who despite some physical limitations seemed to really enjoy talking football and hanging with colts fans. So I was sure that I would have the opportunity but it never came.
On your second point. I thought long and hard on sending a louisville slugger poster in for Griffey to sign. But ended up buying a different poster signed by Arod and Griffey for less than half the current fee. So obviously I agree with both your points because I share the same experiences.
