Tony Perez Hall Of Fame – Cincinnati Reds

Tony Perez – Hall Of Fame Autographed Bat

Miami Marlins FanFest, where fans come out and meet and greet Miami Marlins and baseball legends like Tony Perez, Cincinnati Reds great! I was able to meet Tony Perez and get his autograph on a mini Rawlings bat as well as pose for a few pictures.

What a great treat that was for me. Tony Perez has been around the Marlins organization ever since Wayne Huizuenga was the owner of the team. It is always special to see him, shake his hand and he is always available for an autograph. What a great spokesperson for MLB. The fact that he is a fellow Cuban, makes it more special for me.

NY Yankees 4 Time Champ – Tino Martinez

The World Baseball Classic has given us Floridians many opportunities to gather some of the best autographs available to anyone with the inclusion of the following teams battling for a title….Colombia, Canada, USA, and Dominican Republic. Team USA won, but we were able to get a glimpse of these other teams, and enjoy a few days, and some autograph hounding!

Many players obliged, and some didn’t. So you know if you seek autographs you take the good with the bad. Not too bad, a nice autograph of Tino Martinez, 4 time NY Yankees World Series Champ!

Jim Leyland Team USA Manager

One of the highlights for my family and I this World Baseball Classic season, was meeting the manager of team USA. Jim Leyland was nice enough to sign this autograph for my kids and I. He was his usual grumpy self, but we watched Jim Leyland down here in Miami when he was the manager of the Marlins and led them to their first World Series Championship of the franchise, and we got to love Jim and his ways. Regardless, of his grumpy appearance, he was very nice and is very approachable. So if you want to add his autograph to your collection of autographed baseballs, I give Jim Leyland a thumbs up for the chance to meet him and talk to him. Congratulations on the victory Jim!!!

Autograph/ NY Mets

In Person Autographs – Spotlight Bill Pulsipher

Bill Pulsipher – NY Mets Prospect

It is always very cool to get autographs in person, my collection is very extensive so it becomes very time consuming to post all the pics, but this is a daily love of mine and I am building this blog to help those autograph hounds out in anyway with information and tips on getting them.

On February 23, 2000, Pulsipher’s pregnant wife found him unconscious and barely breathing on their bathroom floor. Pulsipher was rushed to the hospital with paramedics assisting his breathing and doctors restoring his weak heartbeat. Pulsipher attributes the attack to a dietary supplement which contained ephedra. Three years later, Pulsipher was nearby when his Baltimore Orioles teammate Steve Bechler collapsed and died, also from ephedra. Ephedra was banned by the Food and Drug Administration in 2004.

It would have been very cool to have seen the Mets succeed with this pitcher as well as Scott Kazmir, Bobby Jones, as well as a few others, it was never meant to be. Other notable teams in which he played for: Milwaukee, Boston, St. Louis Cardinals, Chicago White Sox…Wishing Bill Pulsipher the very best!

Autograph/ Jack Nicholson/ Through The Mail

Celebrity Autographs Through The Mail

, , , ,

Newest addition to my #ttm family of autographs. This Jack Nicholson autograph is one that I have been waiting on for about 7 months. Hollywood Legend autographs are always neat to get through the mail. One of the best things to do using the good old snail mail. Always a special treat to receive something in the mail. Autograph requests have been a hobby of mine for about 44 years now, and it never gets old to interact with people through the mail.

A special thanks to Jack Nicholson for taking the time to interact with his fans, truly one of the most memorable actors of any generation. Thanks for the autograph!
