I recently sent in for a very reasonably priced signing with Aaron Rowand. Rowand wasn’t always the easiest guy to get during his career, so I was excited to get a bunch of cards done for such a good price.

Tim Anderson Private Signing
I recently participated in a Tim Anderson private signing with BM Authentics. They took good care of my items, and even texted me pictures of the items after they were signed. Some of their prices are a bit high (I believe their recent private signing with Codi Heuer cost more than the Anderson signing), but at least you’re getting good service for the money!
I plan on getting some premiums done at his next signing, but for now I got his Ginters and rookie refractor done.
Sases for Sox: Steve Carlton
Over the years I’ve started to really like multi-signed cards. So I sent a couple of cards to HOFer Steve Carlton that feature him with Sox players. I wish he had more Sox cards, and that the ones he does have were nicer. In any case, I’m very happy to add these to the collection. I’ll be sending the Fleer off to Carlton Fisk shortly. Thanks Mr. Carlton!

Jack McDowell Private Signing
I sent in 5 cards to a recent Jack McDowell private signing. I already have tons of cards signed by Black Jack, but I found 5 more that I genuinely wanted done. It’s hard to tell from the photos, but the Fleer is a Fleer Glossy, and the Topps is a Topps Tiffany. I will probably get a couple of premiums done at the next signing. Other than that I might just get a few more cool looking cards done, and them I’m done with Jack!
Sases for Sox: Billy Koch
Two more crossed off of my all-time Upper Deck wantlist. I’m a little bummed that they were signed in black, considering I paid for the autographs via PastPros. Still, I’m happy to have them. Thanks Billy!

Sases for Sox: Bill Melton
I’ve met Bill Melton a few times, and he has always seemed like a great guy. So it’s no surprise that he is one of the most reliable mail signers out there. He signed my 4 cards, and thanked me for the letter. Such a class act. Thanks Mr. Melton!

Jose Canseco Private Signing
Jamie Blye recently had an in person private signing with Jose Canseco. Normally I don’t mind mail signings, but with Canseco I will only participate in an in person signing. There have been too many issues with past signings. If there is one person I trust to get it done right, it is Jamie Blye. Thanks Jamie!
Sases for Sox: Billy Jo Robidoux
He didn’t sign it in a very good spot, but I’m still very happy to add this to my collection. I love collecting signed cards depicting a player that isn’t known for playing for the Sox, and that only has a few (or in this case, one) card showing him in a Sox uniform. Thanks Billy Jo!
