Well it's been awhile since I posted anything. I have divested of most of my extra cards, I've seen them on some of your blogs. I have decided to concentrate on fewer collections. I will highlight some of the in the coming (insert time period), it won't be eons or eras, but may be awhile. I have picked up a few new and exchanged a few cards for cards I liked better. The Rick Wise card I got signed in person when I met him at lunch for people in sports in Oregon. There were players from all sports, umpires, broadcasters and more. I liked the Heath Bell card with the gumballs for a while. It is a variation of an update card. Those last two cards scanned like that multiple times.After scanning all those two cards I picked up three more cards.
I found the Gavin Sheets and Brent Rooker cards on eBay. The Craig Stammen card came in the mail yesterday. I had made it and sent it to him during Spring Training. He is the only person that I have two signatures from in Padrographs, one as a player and one as manager. Both are customs that I made.

Good to see an update from you!
I get it, I'm trimming down the collection a little but I'm in the just-starting phase. Really appreciate the cards you have sent out.
Wow, pulled in a lot of nice autographs there. I too appreciate the cards you sent and I hope to post about them soon.
Good to see you on the blog! I, too, am in the process of trying to cut back some of my collection. I hope you got the package I sent out.
I concur.......hehehe
Looking forward to seeing those collections!
A. Great to read an update from you. I'm sure at some point I'll need to make the difficult decision to concentrate on fewer collections myself. I've definitely been trimming the excess the past decade or so by handing cards out to students and periodically making donations to Goodwill. Hopefully it'll give me something to do when I retire one day :D
B. Thank you so much for the three packages. I'm slowly, but surely writing posts for care packages. I promise you your thank you post is coming. "It won't be eons or eras, but may be awhile".
C. Rooker was a Padre? Had no idea. He had a rough start to the 2026 season, but has turned it on this month.
