2002 Topps Tribute

I recently came across a small stack of 2002 Topps Tribute cards. I must have bought a few packs back when they first came out. The relic cards were nowhere to be seen, just the base cards. But they are some pretty nice looking cards of some of the games greatest players. Thought I would show them off.



TTM Success: Duke Snider

I sent Duke Snider a few cards back on July 15th. I got them both back today, signed, just 13 days later. Mr. Snider was a great player and I am honored to have his autograph in my collection. Thanks Mr. Snider!

Duke Snider - Multiple Bat Card

In my goal to collect 50 cards of players holding multiple bats I have come across some great looking cards. This 1997 Kenner card of Duke Snider is no exception and is number 42 out of 50 in my quest. This card accompanied a Starting Lineup figure and showcases the Duke holding 12 bats!

TTM Success - Duke Snider and Ron Cey

As a kid I sent away for a few autographs through the mail. Guys like Dale Murphy, Don Mattingly and Mickey Morindini. What's that? You don't remember Mickey Morandini? Former All-Star (1995) second baseman of the Philadelphia Phillies, who on September 20, 1992 turned an unassisted triple play. Anyways, I am getting back into the baseball card hobby again, now as an adult and I wanted to try my luck at getting some autographs through the mail. My first successes came back to me on the same day. Fitting, since I sent them out on the same day. Former Dodger players Duke Snider and Ron Cey signed both cards I sent and I recieved them just 6 days after I sent them. Needless to say, I was pretty excited.

I sent each a copy of their 2000 Fleer Greats of the Game card and a Signature Card that I purchased from TheAutographCard.com. I think they all turned out great and would like to thank both Mr. Snider and Mr. Cey!
