I've been a Steve Garvey fan ever since I was a kid (8 or 9) and read a book called "Skinnybones" where the main characters idol was Steve Garvey. This was back in '84 or so. I remember being so excited when I got Garvey's '87 Topps, as it was right up there with Canseco and McGwire and Bo Jackson for me.
Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago when I sent Steve a letter and two cards to sign (with a small donation). When checking the mail today, here is what I got:
Beautiful sig! I got both cards back signed (but they're the same, so I just posted one) in a matter of days! I'm going to give one to my nephew along with a copy of "Skinnybones" in a couple of years when he's ond enough for the book (he's 4 now). Thanks, Steve!

2.5 is pretty much my speed.

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep."

Collecting:
Any unopened Baseball cello and rack packs and boxes from the 1970's and early 1980s.
It only gets better
Enjoy the returns
