Beckett Message Boards

Was cleaning up yesterday and stumbled across my old through the mail autographs from years ago. Some really good stars I got back then (if all are legit)

Did anyone else do this or still do it? Was a good way to get a players autograph for cheap. I also noticed some of the players I sent to who I thought were going to be awesome .. lol Alex Ochoa, Dan Johnson, ROCKY COPPINGER!! and Charles Johnson catcher from marlins bent my card in half I guess he thought I was gonna resale since he is a sure fire HOFer ...

Who are some decent players who still take the time to sign without charging a fee?

anyway here are some I ran across

"CANT BELIEVE I SENT TO ROCKY COPPINGER

Can you imagine trying to get some of these guys autographs through the mail now, When I did I was definitely hit or miss, Jeter, Chipper, Mariano Rivera, Will Clark, Tony Gwynn, etc. but then players I sent to like Alex ochoa, ROCKY COPPINGER!, Charles Johnson(who bent my card in half) .... Crazy how you didn't know who was going to be a big time signature at the time you sent.

Is there a site dedicated to players who sign through the mail in this day in age?

very nice... did you send to the player's houses or to the clubhouse?

clubhouse on all, but this is back in early to mid 90s mostly

that is amazing - very nice~

Speaking of TTM. I just got Mark Lemke's on card today.

my son and I do it, we have gotten some pretty big names, including some hall of famers, great thing to do with him because I we research their careers together and he learns about players for the past, current and future players...

clintoris- Were did you send to get his autograph? I liked treadway more
Eharris- who still signs? are they signing through the mail with a fee to charity or anything?

I tried his home a few years ago with no success. This time I sent to the Atlanta Radio Station he works at and got it back in about 10 days.

Also, I'm too young to remember Treadway so Lemke was the first second baseman I remember. And I needed it for my 95 world series collection.
