Keith had some great cards in a very short period, and I think for just $5.00 a card, the price was just right.

NOTES:

This guy. I swear. Archie can be quite frustrating through the mail, but he seems to begrudgingly sign after a few attempts. I got him once previously, on one card 5 years previously which is a lot less than others, especially those that keep hitting that well every few months. Anyway, he sent a buckslip telling me that anything I sent to his home address would not be returned, along with this autograph, on the only other card of his I wanted to get signed.

NOTES:

I always thought Josh got a bad wrap. His 2010 was a really solid campaign, and while he did survive the Raheem Morris epoch, he was able to rally the team to a decent 7-9 record while posting some pretty decent numbers.

I had worked with my friend Chris in tracking down Josh’s address. He wasn’t at the top of my list, so I let Chris at him first. After he got a success, I went ahead and put my cards together and sent them out.
