In early 2011, I mailed Tampa Bay Rays Rookie Pitcher Jeremy Hellickson a LOR, SASE, and 2011 Topps Heritage to Hellickson. I do not remember if the letter was sent during Spring Training or the Regular Season it was sent so long ago and I fail to keep a log of what I have out there. However the card was sent shortly after the release of the Heritage set last year. On February 24, 2012, I received my signed card with a Ft. Myers FL Postmark. I was skeptical as to the authenticity of this card due to a very distinct Hellickson signature, but I have located the Topps Triple Thread Certified Autograph Card of Hellickson, and this signature is a spot on match. No more doubts as to the signatures authenticity from the 2011 AL Rookie of the Year.
