Are you thinking of Richie Ashburn? Roberts is plentiful.

Ha, yes. Guess I had Roberts on my mind.

Just stumbled across this thread. As an earlier follow up, the Drew Henson card mentioned was his 1999 Upper Deck SP Top Prospects. When I got mine signed, he wrote 1/5 signed on the back of it. I have heard now he has loosened up. I got him to sign it though as I was down to just he and JD Drew in that set, had been working on it for years, and explained the situation to him.
I have finished the 1996, 1998, 2000, and 2001 SP Top Prospects sets all in blue. There wasn't a 1997 one and the 1999 one I only need the #1 card of JD Drew to finish. Been looking for that card for awhile and can never locate one. Enjoyed the 1987 Topps discussions. I have tons of those but that was a couple years before I started hitting spring training and other locations so I never tried that set. I do work on the 1996 Studio and 1997 Fleer ones though as well. |

Earlier this year I made a focus to finish my 1978 Grand Slam set...I had gotten more than 60 TTM as a teenager. I ended up getting in contact with the sets original publisher who had one extra set which he had gotten for his son but his son had never gotten interested. Of course, the Carl Reynolds is not possible as he passed while the set was at the printers. The Rube Walberg is very difficult as he died shortly after the set was produced. The George McQuinn card is probably more difficult. At some point Jackie Jensen quit responding to TTM requests. Thornton Lee personalized all the cards...it was a fun experience...I was able to get a Bobby Doerr TTM...nearly 40 years after I had purchased the set!
