I have had decent success so far this year getting TTM (thru the
mail returns) autographs from current, former, and future Minnesota Twins. To date
I have signed cards from 626 different current or former Twins. I have signed
cards from 34 minor leaguers including 24 of the top 30 prospects (I have requests
in to the other 6).
One thing I have found is that when sending to Class A and Rookie
League minor leaguers players some of them tend to sign in ink pen. Since most
of them don’t have real baseball cards yet, I create one of them on photo paper
and another on thick regular paper or cardboard. That way if the ink pen does
not work on the photo paper (which sometimes it has not or is hard to read) it
will work on the other card.
