Any great TTM signers out there?

Star players like Steve Garvey, Amos Otis, Al Oliver, Kent Hrbek, Jimmy Key, all sign for $5-10. There are plenty of free signers still as well, lesser name guys but a few bigger names. John Olerud is one that comes to mind as a free signer who had an above average career. It's a fun way to build the collection and quite addictive!

That’s awesome, Derek! For the players you mentioned, how did you go about finding where to send?

If you want to collect baseball autographs then the $14.99 annual fee for www.sportscollectors.net is the best money you’ll ever spend. Any address for any player you’ll ever need, great community, and an active B/S/T. Highly recommend.

Agree. Been a member there since 2002, with over 850 successful returns.

In 10 minutes on this site I learned about an upcoming Terry Francona private signing -- I've been waiting for an opportunity for him to sign a 1994 Birmingham Barons roster sheet from Jordan's first series.

The amount of stuff for sale -- and CHEAP -- is amazing.

SCN as others mentioned is great. Their ttm forum is second to none. In addition to addresses, there are also notes on signing habits and info on prices the players charge when applicable.

It's EXACTLY what I've been looking for -- many thanks!

Nolan Ryan asks for a donation to his foundation in exchange for signing. I sent him a rookie card maybe two years ago and it came out great. No upcharge for the item either:

Nolan's deal to sign ANY card for $75 is fantastic -- got one myself!

Can’t recommend Nolan and his foundation enough. I think it took about three weeks to get it back. They even confirmed it was received.
