upgrading Padrograph #1158 and new Padrograph #1163
On a side note, I got to meet San Jose Fuji in person today. He was in Portland visiting a friend and came to see me at work. He brought a box of Gypsy Queen and some autos for my Frankenset. I got 12 cards for the Frankenset. He also brought me some stuff to give to Gavin of Baseball Card Breakdown. Last week I updated my Xavier Edwards (#1158) auto, it looks bad on the scanner but it is actually pretty nice. The previous card had he and Ryan Weathers both on it and the signatures were pretty cramped. Xavier was drafted in the first round in 2018. Kip Wells (#1163) pitched in 7 games for the Padres in 2012. He had played independent ball and in Mexico in 2010-11. After playing 11 seasons in the Majors. I sent this to him on January 31, 2019 and got it back last week. Going to see the Salem Keizer Volcanoes play the Tri City Dust Devils. That is the Giants vs Padres, Rookie League Short Season teams. Playing to go through Thursday, only working a half day each day. I am going to take pictures to make cards with. I have the fronts all laid out, so all I have to do is add the pictures. The backs are all printed out and cut.
Doing well, thank you
