Dodger Autographs Served On A Sushi Platter

I've never sent an autograph request through the mail, but I've always wanted to. There are a lot of players and former players that I need for my autograph collection, I'm just too damn lazy to write to them. Luckily, my good friend Spiegel, from Nomo's Sushi Platter isn't as lazy as I am. He's been mailing autograph requests all year and it's definitely benefited both of us. See, we have this agreement in which I get autographs in person and he gets them through the mail, then we give each other any doubles we have. We did this throughout the baseball season.You can see some of the cards I've given him here and here.

As for my latest haul, Spiegel realy hooked me up. 





Hiroki Kuroda and Mike Marshall are my two favorites. I never got Kuroda's auto when he was in LA and I always regretted it. Now I have his sig! The Marshall is a bit of a sentimental auto for me. Mike Marshall was the first autograph I ever got. That was a million years ago at my local card shop in Chatsworth(there were five card shops in Chatsworth back in the day!). Anyway, I tore my parents place up looking for that autograph and I couldn't find it, so this is a nice replacement.

Thanks to Spiegel for all the TTM autographs. You can check out his blog Nomo's Sushi Platter here.

Thank You I Don't Know...3rd Base!




I wanted to thank I Don't Know...3rd Base! for the generous package he sent me. Last month he gave away some cards. The best part about the giveaway was that you didn't have to jump through hoops to get something. It was simple. All you had to do was leave a comment. That comment got you an  autograph, relic, manufactured patch or printing plate from one of the 30 MLB teams.

He put the commenter's names into random.org and I ended up with the Dodgers card. It's a 2007 Upper Deck Sweet Spot Classic Signatures Reggie Smith auto #d 68/99.  This is an awesome card. I love the signature on the baseball and the picture of Dodger Stadium in the background.




He also sent me a bunch of other Dodger cards:



Kersh

Matty

He sent a card of both Mike Marshalls. Here's the pitcher Mike Marshall.
 
Here's the other Mike Marshall, who was a frequent signer at my LCS in Chatsworth when I was younger. I've got to dig those autos up.

Thanks again I Don't Know..3rd Base!
