I also sent a creased Rangers card I had laying around, and Mason signed it as well. I'll send that one to 'ol Napkin Doon.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.

TTM Success: Jim Mason
Former Yankee Jim Mason signed two cards for me in about 10 days. I sent this 1975 Topps as a possible upgrade in my Topps Yankees Project. Currently, I have a beat up Ron Blomberg signed in pen. While I like Blomberg a lot more, I always cringe when I see this card in my binder.

Here is the Blomberg I was referring to:

TTM Success: Jim Mason
In just two weeks time, Jim Mason signed my 1974 Topps card. Mason was a very light hitting infielder who played for nine MLB seasons, three with the Yanks. His career WAR is -3.5 according to baseball reference. That's not good.
Interestingly enough, Mason got one AB in the '76 WS for the Yanks...and homered! Pretty cool.
