I'm still getting occasional returns from letters I sent out last month. I got back John Papa back today. He pitched for the Orioles in 2 games in 1961 and 1 game in 1962. All the photos I used were originally black and white but I colorized them using Photoshop.
I've been collecting baseball images for many years and decided to create some baseball cards and send them through the mail to the players pictured for their autographs. I also make cards for collectors.

I haven't been sending out TTM requests for the last month but I got back Gary Kolb today. I mailed it out at the end of January and it came back today. He was a back up catcher in the 1960s for the Cardinals, Mets, Braves and Pirates. He signed my 3 customs in thin black marker.
