Thanks Mark....What I like about it is that there is a story behind every autograph on it...For example back in '07, I took it to a game where the Orioles were playing the Diamondbacks to try to get Bob Melvin. It was so hot that day, the D-Backs didn't work out pre-game but I saw a buddy of mine who was a local radio guy on the field & explained my dilemma who in turn grabbed former pitcher Dave Johnson (who was nearby) and asked him if he could take it into the D-Backs clubhouse to have Melvin sign it (which he did).

Here is the companion piece to that photo (same photographer), a great shot of Cal Jr. (of all things) grounding into a Double Play to end the game..I should get Tanana to sign it too sometime:
