The Quest

The Baltimore Orioles have been in town since '54 and have had over 900 men don their uniform. My goal is to obtain a signed card of each player. If you have something I need, or see something you want, don't be shy, we can make a deal.

Collection Statistics

Total Players 877/977 = 89.25%
1991 Orioles Crown Set
Total Players 309/465 = 66.45%
Alive Players 274/369 = 74.25

Extended Spring Training

So, I lied about not getting Adam Jones TTM during spring training. I came home today to find two sweet cards signed by the All-Star/Gold Glove outfielder of the future.

Adam Jones 2009 Topps Heritage #53

Huge fan of signatures on the 2009 Topps Heritage set. The staedtler looks awesome even though Adam looks a little sleepy in his close up. This one is going to set up shop in the personal collection, it's just too sharp to give away/.

2009 Topps Update & Highlights #UH-31

This may not have been the best card to send for a signature. There is so much going on on the front of the card, his signature gets lost.

I guess I shouldn't have jumped the gun on calling spring training a loss. The team is still down in Florida for their series with Tampa Bay and maybe just maybe some guys still have my cards. We'll see what the weekend brings.
