Default Tri-star Willie Mays Signing

I was curious if anyone had any feedback about the Texas Tri-star Willie Mays signing last week?

Did he show up (his wife has been ill)? How many people were getting things signed?

Thanks,
Bob.

Not about the Tri Star signing, but an interesting NY Times story about Willie Mays and his new biography.

Thanks Richard for sharing. That was a great article about Mays in the Times.

I wonder when his book tour will begin?

Bob.

I emailed the company, as they just sent me a book for review. Willie isn't touring for this book. I couldn't even imagine the lines if he did a book signing. You would have every collector that ever lived come out of the woodwork and Willie would be ridiculously miserable. I don't think he wants to deal with the lines that would come with a book signing like this.
