I think my favorite out of these five is either Gary Carter or Ken Norton, was fortunate to receive Norton's 1978 cover as a gift last Christmas. Pernell Whitaker came from Leader in Sports. Pretty much all of these came with COAs in addition to their stickers.

I've got a signing my girlfriend and I are going to later this month and will post my adds from that one. I've also reached out to some other Net54 members in offer to get something done for them that show. One of them might take me up on it, but pricing isn't up yet.

I hope you all had a nice holiday, and you all have a safe and Happy New Year.

Very nice, especially the Carter and Norton covers. I had gotten SweetPea at a local appearance (not a signing) years ago, and just got 'Sweetpea' scrawled across the cover; yours is a much better signature.

Oh, nice. Which local appearance was this?

I believe it was at a Boy's Club in Newport News, VA. I couldn't make it, but my dad was able to take it and get his signature. I'll try to dig it up and get a photo.

While not an SI, I did see Scott McGregor today and had him sign this 1984 Street and Smith Yearbook, adding '1983 World Series Champs'. Also got his photo showing off his 1983 WS ring. Very nice fellow.

Really cool. Now, you’ll just have to get Dempsey, whom I’ll need on a couple of his SI covers.

He actually made a comment about Dempsey signing it, saying "Where do you want me to sign, because Dempsey will take up the whole cover? I guess I'll sign across Dempsey's butt"

You've heard of a trifecta, but have you ever heard of the Tram-Fecta? That's right. I got Alan Trammell on all three of his SI covers yesterday at Night of Memories inside the University of Evansville's Carson Center. I like the cover of first one, May 1984, the best, but I think his second SI cover, October 1984, turned out the best. We somehow got on Spanish and Latin, and Tram was saying being from San Diego, he regretted he didn't learn Spanish/Latin more. It was a good time, went with my girlfriend.

And, in continuing my connection with fellow Net54 SI Collector Huck, I got him both Don Mattingly and Ryan Klesko on covers. I got both of those covers myself at past shows, now I'll be mailing him his covers back sometime this week.
