Miss Wunder (her friends called her Do) was a pioneer in through the mail (TTM) autographs. Her major contribution to this portion of the hobby was thrift. She was the first known collector to use the same postcard over and over and over again. This item is a tribute to Miss Wunder's contribution to the hobby and should not be judged on the quality of the autographs. Unfortunately once one of these cards had been signed by a number of famous stars, someone at the post office ultimately failed to deliver it to Miss Wunder. I suspect the lister of this item is a postal employee. Miss Wunder always underestimated the return rate on her autograph requests for this reason, but kept trying to build her collection. Her friends would say "Just Do It", every time she threatened to quit.

I think you need more hobbies, baseball cards isn't taking up enough of your time.. I hear good things about birdhouse building.
