O/T Nolan Ryan Made my day!
When I was in the Marines and on my second deployment to Iraq in 2007, I sent out tons of autograph requests since mail was free. I wrote to Nolan Ryan and didn't receive anything back. I would address the SASE to my home address in the states. Just a few weeks ago I was thinking about the card I sent him, a 2005 Donruss Diamond Kinds HOF Gold /25. Well today in my mailbox a lone SASE sat. I haven't had an SASE in the mailbox for about 10 months now, so I was wondering who it could be from. I rip it open and saw the DK card, and beneath is was a 2000 Fleer Greats of the Game certified autograph of Nolan Ryan! I have only been able to find 2 pictures of this card, and both were signed in black. My card is signed in blue. This was an awesome thing for Mr Ryan to do, and I will keep the card forever, and always remember how generous he was.
