I decided to set up at a small show today in Longview, TX. The big draw was that they had Jose Canseco signing. I had broken a bunch of 86 Topps Traded and Fleer Update sets looking for Bonds, Bo’s and Will Clark’s to submit. I struck out there but had a ton of extra Cansecos. I was emailed an autograph special for dealers and took advantage. I got to walk out and talk to him for a few minutes while he signed. I asked him some general things, and I even asked him if he knew about @mouschi He said, yeah I know Tanner, heck he had been to my house! I thought that was cool.
Here are the cards I got signed
Looking for FB HOF Rookies

any of those tiffanys? like the lone mini in there too.
No just had 1 days notice. The 87 Topps is a Rediscover Topps buy back I pulled In a Heritage case rip in 2017 though.
I respect Him for blowing the doors off the steroid era. Glad he told the Truth to people! Heck of a player.
You sure it wasn’t Ozzie?
Kiss me twice.....let's party.
If I could link the video I took. I said I was worried it would actually be Ozzie at the signing. He said. I am Ozzie. The good looking one
I love the 86 Topps Traded set. Takes me back to when I first started back collecting in my teens (in my wisdom I had gotten rid of all my 70s cards when I lost interest and moved to Star Wars). Nice looking group of cards!!

He's my all-time favorite. I have never met him personally but have spoke with him a couple time on twitter and facebook. I recently completed my PSA 10 Rookie run pictured below.
That is cool. Yeah it was actually pretty cool talking with him briefly.
I used to see him at Jerrys Deli in California
This is the Canseco auto I just got authenticated
That made my night...a welcome nice story after a long bout with covid!
No 1986 Sportflics love?
Kiss me twice.....let's party.
that is a nice run of PSA 10's there.
George Brett, Bobby Orr and Terry Bradshaw.
Dwight Gooden was just announced for the show next month. I already have him on an 1984 Topps Traded. Have a nice 1985 Fleer I may go with on this one. I wish I still had my 1984 Fleer Update.
About how many tables are at this show ? I’m only a few hours away , might make the drive for Gooden. I noticed they previously had Billy Simms. I’m guessing this is a monthly event ?
Is there a good site where I can find information about shows like this? I haven't been to a sports card show since the 90s. It would be cool to get some autographs.
maybe 30-40 tables. Not a huge show by any stretch. I am an hour away from it. I am debating setting up at this one.
