I’ve gotten some really good TTMs this year, but this one is
the best. I’ve seen others have success with Paul O’Neill over the years, but I
could never get a return from him. That changed when I came home to a SASE
post-marked from Cincinnati.
Now, I’ve sent O’Neill a few requests over the past year –
both to his home and to the Yankees. I’m not entirely sure where this came
from. While it was post-marked from Cincy, I could have sworn I sent this card
to him at Yankee Stadium. Who knows? I need to keep more detailed records of
the exact cards I send.
All I know is that I was thrilled to open the envelope and
have this card slide out with a beautiful blue signature scrolled across it. Of
course, I wish I had a sent a different card, as this 1998 Score is rather
ugly. I tend to be careless sometimes with the cards I choose, but I am glad
that the signature stuck well and didn’t bubble, and that it’s easy to read
over the image.
Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteNice return- When I hear O'Neill's name I always think about his cameo on Seinfeld when Kramer asked him to hit 2 home runs for a sick kid.
