Highsmith, Alonzo (2)

Cards: Pro Set 1990, Action Packed 1990, Fleer 1990, Topps 1990
Acquired: TTM 2021, C/o Home
Sent: 4/27 Received: 5/14 (17 days)

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

  • See Alonzo Highsmith

  • Has continued to establish himself as an up and coming front office executive.

  • Joined the Cleveland Browns front office in 2018 as their Vice President of Player Personnel.

  • As of 2020 works in the Seattle Seahawks front office. 

NOTES:

I think I got really lucky with Alonzo, as he signed all 4 of these cards for me, with two of them becoming more recent set needs. He stopped signing shortly thereafter TTM, but I figured since it’d been nearly 10 years, it was OK to come back and tap that vein again.

Blades, Brian (2)

Topps 1990 1000 Yard Club, #27

CARDS: Topps 1990 1000 Yard Club, Action Packed 1990, Skybox 1992
ACQUIRED: TTM 2021, C/o Home
SENT: 4/19 RECEIVED: 4/29 (10 Days)

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

Skybox Impact 1992, #92 Action Packed 1990, #251

NOTES:
It had been quite a while since I hit up Brian for a few autographs and I was happy to see he was still at it for the Action Packed and Skybox cards as slowly over the years these have become more set needs. The strange one that has grown on me the most as of late is the Topps 1990 subset 1000 yard club. -It just feels like the odd transition between the 80s and 90s design-wise and I like that.

Brooks, Bill (3)

Action Packed 1990, #103 Fleer 1990, #229

CARDS: GameDay 1992, Action Packed 1990, Fleer 1990
ACQUIRED: TTM 2020, C/O Home
SENT: 11/16 RECIEVED: 12/11 (25 DAYS)

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

ACCOLADES:

  • Indianapolis Colts Ring of Honor 1998
  • Whizzer White Award 1996

NOTES:

Bill Brooks had some amazing cards over the years and once again after a few years I decided to go ahead and dip into the well for a few more of them. Since that time all these sets have sort of become set needs so it made sense to send them. I really like the Action Packed and the GameDay cards of Bill taking off after a catch.
