What a day yesterday was - getting to add four new covers in Juan Marichal, Steve Owens, Walt "Clyde" Frazier and Mel Renfro to the collection at the Music City Collectibles Show. Many of them had some championship jewelry to show off there. I'm guessing the Giants gave Marichal some rings during their 2010s dynasty years.
Bigdaddy sent in his own Marichal SI to me to get signed for him. In case anyone is interested or curious, mine is the one with the horizontal label, while he sent in the one with the vertical label.
Huck was interested in Jim Edmonds but didn't send in his cover. So, I offered him the unsigned Edmonds cover I owned if he sent payment covering both the cost of the autograph and the cost of the SI when I got it from eBay a couple of years ago. He agreed and I will ship this to him once I receive payment.
My favorite is the Marichal. There aren't too many left from his era, and those who are, how many are able to travel and sign? This one means even more than many that I am thrilled with in my collection.
I'm happy with the Clyde Frazier one, though it isn't in the greatest condition, but it was nice to get him.
Of course, I would love to get every signed cover I can, but I think my top priority with this collection right now is those 1960s covers, since almost everybody from the 1950s is gone and them appearing somewhere would be even another story. Many people from the 1960s have left us, and I started this collection too late, which I regret, but all the more reason to appreciate and be thankful for the ones I do have.
