Well I decided to give John a shot asking him to sign two cards for me, but playing true to form he only signed one. No big deal. The Action Packed card has become a set need over the years. I’ll try the Fleer 90 in another 10 years, I guess. John’s autograph remains solid after all these years and looks great on this card.

NOTES:
Well played Jeff! Well played. So… I sent off to Jeff, a career non-responder, and was surprised to get an autograph from him on one of the two cards I sent, and a note, asking for more cards for his kids. After digging through my boxes and ordering a few extras, I reloaded and sent Jeff a stack of cards, asking to trade a few autographs in exchange for them. I was surprised to get so many others back, but hopefully his kids really liked the ones he kept.
Jeff appears in Tecmo Super Bowl. He adds much needed power to the Dolphins defensive line front.
