Gary Carter HR's and the Pitchers -- Take 2 -- HAPPY NEW YEAR 2019

This is a re-launch of a thread I started back in 2008
I have begun to scan all my successes so far (My original scans were deleted) and will update this when I have new additions.
I was looking to get a dual signature of Gary Carter and the pitchers who surrendered each of his 324 homeruns. The players will be sent a custom picture that I created which will have a bit of info on the HR.
I have made some real good progress on the returns from the pitchers but I never got around to send some of them to Gary for his signature.

The "photos" measure 5x6 --- below is an example of size with a card added for scale

I will post all the images I have so far and will post a place holder if necessary.
HOMERUNS 1-10
Homerun #7 = Randy Moffitt

Have you been pursuing this all along or did you take a break from your pursuit? If you did send them all out already, how many did you end up getting back?
Looking forward to more scans!!!

Thanks Geordie, Sethro and Mike for the kind words

I have been plodding along since April 2008 -- most of the returns came between 2008 -- 2010 and now I am looking towards private signings for the outstanding ones. -- I will recap what I need once I get them all posted

Homerun #22 = Ramon Hernandez --- he is deceased
Homerun #23 = Oscar Zamora
Homerun #32 = Butch Metzger
What are you going to do about the pitchers who are deceased?
Also, kind of funny that John Candelaria wasn't really grasping the concept of where to sign. He's like the the kid who would sign your yearbook on your picture, not his own.

Homerun #59 = Eddie Solomon --- he is deceased
Homerun #60 = Nino Espinosa --- he is deceased
