Billy Spiers Returns TTMs after 142 days

I’m little behind in posting this success. But I’m still posting it faster then it took the player to respond to my TTM request. 
Former Milwaukee Brewer shortstop Billy Spiers took 142 days to respond and return two autographed cards to me. 

Yes that is a long time but still not a long wait when compared to Mackey Sasser at 159 days; 
Dan Peltier, 170 days; 
Ken Williams, 191 Days; 
Mike Williams, 219 days; 
Nolan Ryan, 225, days; 
Randy Tomlin, 245 days; 
Eric O’ Flaherty, 271 days; 
Craig Reynolds, 303 days; 
Steve Lyons, 332 days; 
Spike Owen, whom I mailed two times. The first time he took just over a month to return one card. The second time, he took 478 days to return two cards.
Billy Hatcher, 542 days;
Tim Leary, 680 days; 
Kevin Appier, 826 days; 
Ray Fontenot 918 days; 
Dave Stapleton, 1,167 days; 
GlennAllen Hill, 1,285 days
and Bob Tewksbury, 2,104 days. 

All are examples that you should probably never give up on a card coming back to you.

Error Leads to Great Dave Stapleton Autograph


DAPHN, AL.— This is probably the best through the mail autograph success story I have yet.
It took former Boston Red Sox first baseman Dave Stapleton 1,167 days to return an autograph card.
It is the third longest wait I have had next to Bob Tewksbury, who took 2,104 days, 
http://mlbttmautographs.blogspot.com/2016/12/bob-tewksbury-responds-to-ttm-request.html
and GlenAllen Hill who took 1,285 days.
http://mlbttmautographs.blogspot.com/2014/09/a-1285-day-wait-for-glenallen-hill-ttm.html

There is an added twist to the story, a mistake that I made which resulted in this great return.
When I mailed Stapleton a card, I erroneously sent him a card of former Milwaukee pitcher Dave Stapleton.
Fan Pack Request PostcardI’m still stunned I made such a mistake as I always liked Boston’s Stapleton and his 1981 Donruss card was one of the first cards I remember adding to my collection.
I sent the Brewer’s card and a note wishing the pitcher happy holidays.
What I received back four years later is an autograph from Boston’s Stapleton and a note highlighting my error, signed by Boston’s Stapleton and citing that he played for Boston 1980-1986 #11.

I have since checked 
and realized that there isn’t an address for the former Brewer’s pitcher.

I hate the error I made but I love the result.
Thank you to Boston’s Dave Stapleton.
