On the signing front

A brief trip to the signing front to clear things out a bit.
This hopefully will be the beginning of a good run as I have sent out more mail over the last three weeks or so than I ever have over a similar period,so I am hoping for some good additions....

I made a large trade with the "Superfan" to gain about 50 autographs.
Nice catches include Royals prospect Mike Moustakas,who I never was able to obtain when he was in Wilmington,Oakland Athletics Aaron Cunningham and Gio Gonzalez,Andrew McCutchen and Pedro Alvarez of the Pirates on cards that I didn't have,Lastings Milledge,Jason Castro of Houston and Christian Colon,last years top pick for the Royals were nice pickups as well....

I also added some non-baseball cards from the "SF".
Wrestlers TAZ and Samoa Joe along with famous manager Jimmy Hart along with some stars of the hockey world,led by former Washington goalie Olaf Kolzig,former Devil Viktor Kozlov and Colorado's Tomas Fleischmann on his AHL top prospects card.....
