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!

Sases for Sox: Orlando Cabrera
I wasn’t sure if I would include items signed through PastPros in the Sases for Sox series. I decided it really isn’t any different than paying a fee directly to the player, so I will be including them.
Another one down in my Upper Deck quest. Thanks Mr. Cabrera!

Sases for Sox: Eddie Robinson
A couple of the cards were smeared slightly, and he didn’t use the blue sharpie I sent. That’s a bit disappointing considering I paid a fee for the autographs, but I guess I can’t complain too much. The man is 100 years old after all! I’m just glad the 1951 Bowman is the one card that isn’t smeared. Thanks Mr. Robinson!

Magglio Ordonez Private Signing
Today I received my cards from a recent Magglio Ordonez signing. They turned out great! I hope there is another signing in the near future, as I have lots more stuff I’d like to get done.
