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.

Nice covers! Thanks again for helping out a fellow collector!

Very nice. I just heard John Smoltz talking about his first time in a MLB locker room with the Tigers and that Tram went out of his wat to introduce himself and welcomed John and how it made a big impression on him.

From the Pinstripe Pride Show. Gooden was from a previous signing.

For anyone interested, I have an April 2, 1962 issue of Sports Illustrated signed by Arnold Palmer available in The Collector Connection auction that just opened.
