Back in 2013 I sent Joe Torre a Yankee Manager card with hopes of getting it back autographed. I am from NY and after leaving the Marines, married a gal from Illinois.... I never dropped the Yankees as my favorite team. That will never change.... I get all my cards, jerseys, balls, and other items signed via mail as I have PTSD, and going to games, or crowds are things I really can't handle. Sometimes I win, Sometimes I lose...... Cards are ok compared to a jersey or mini helmet, puck, or bat....
I have a list of over 30 items still out there. Just today I opened the mail and found an old self addressed envelope that I stopped using over a year ago. When I opened it up, to my surprise were two autographed combo L.A. ANGELES / DODGERS #136.
It is awesome to finally get something back from Mr. Torre. But am I asking too much to get back the card that I sent him? My personal collection is Yankees and Joe Torre as Manager in that part of Yankee history is what I am working on. Where does a Angeles or Dodgers card fit in there?
I have a Joe Torre collection, as I do with all the greats. So the cards will be put into a rightful place. So.... better late than never.........lol.............Off in the mail another manager card? I think not !!!
