Default 87 topps Ricky Wright

I met Ricky Wright right after the 1987 season. He had come to Oklahoma to play in a charity golf tournament. My friend & I had his 86 topps traded & 87 topps cards. We asked hi for his autograph & he signed our 86 topps traded cards but politely refused to sign the 8 topps cards. He told us he had signed a few ( I think it was 10 or 12 cards) for his hometown little league program to auction off to raise money to purchase new lights for the fields. He said the cards he had signed for his hometown little league program will be the only ones he would ever sign & promised them he would never sign that card again for anyone so they would be able to use that to help sell them for a premium price!
