I added Valentine at a banquet a couple years ago (who also asked how I got Ricky to sign lol).

I added Mr. Baines via a recent TTM. One of those surprise returns that makes it all worthwhile.

I see a lot of guys are signing that never signed before (for free, and TTM) like Rafael Palmiero and Harold Baines.

Looks like Mike Witt will be doing a signing with PastPros. A very tough autograph to get, especially for this set!!!!! And it is priced accordingly.

Recent returns came from Don Schulze and Jose Cruz Sr. The latter took almost five years.

Also, I checked that I got returns from Paul Assenmacher and Dusty Baker, but I guess I never posted them.

Daryl Boston, Tito Landrum, Danny Cox and Tommy Herr are all on PastPros now. I have all except Cox.

Dwayne Murphy has been added to PastPros.


Mike Young and Mike Aldrete are doing a PastPros signing. Young is $15, Aldrete $20.
