Last week was a great return to the world of TTM. Because there were a couple signings over the past month, I have not been sending a lot out. My last full "Phillies TTM" post was a month ago - and since then successes have been sparse. With three new returns, I figured it was time for an update...

I can't wait to get it back into the mail over the next week or two...

1977 Team Ball - Ted Sizemore

Another off-season project that I have not worked on lately. I noticed 2B Ted Sizemore has been signing TTM recently and jumped on the opportunity. He signed the side panel under Jim Lonborg and added a ROY inscription.
