Comments: It's nice to get a return from a request that has been out for a while. It's even better when the return envelope is stuffed with more than you sent! I wrote a letter to Mr. Dunston, great shortstop for the Cubs, asking if he wouldn't mind signing a pair of cards for me. Well, I got those back signed, along with two other signed cards. Sweet! Not sure what prompted that, but I'll certainly take it.

This '87 Topps cards was one that I sent in my request. I dig how he signed on the top of his hat. Makes sense, right? You really wouldn't want to sign on your face, would you? I wouldn't.
