The Generosity of Board Members - Part I

This message board really is a great community. I've been fairly quiet for most of the summer, but a couple of weeks ago I got a large envelope in the mail from Mike, aka thekid8.

He's been making some really nice custom photo cards and sending them for TTM autographs. It turns out that he made a Will Clark card and set it to The Thrill on my behalf. What a guy!

I've got hundreds of autographs in my collection, but none that are personalized. Thanks a ton, Mike!

    Mike strikes again!

    That's a really cool item, Drew! I've also been the recipient of one of Mike's personalized player collages, and I'm pretty sure a few others have as well. Mike, thanks for taking the time to bring a smile to the faces of some of the player collectors here on CU. It's a really nice gesture, and those of us that have received them really appreciate it.
  • Way to go Mike!

    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    Mike also made great custom photo cards of Jim Gantner for me! Unfortunately Gantner isn't as responsive to TTM requests. That fact didn't take anything at all away from Mike's great gesture! imageimage

    Hey I know that photo image
    These have been a lot of fun to make and send out --- the players that have sent them back deserve a lot of thanks as well.
