mark cresse through the mail success!

mark cresse signed and returned these 1978 topps cards to me in about two months!


if you recall, that's cresse in the top row, far right.  sadly, he did not answer my question regarding the identity of the two men in streetclothes standing in front of him.  oh well, at least i have another card to add to my modest 1978 topps dodger autograph project, even though i don't count it in the percent complete.

cresse was the dodgers' bullpen coach from 1974 to 1998.  he currently runs the 'mark cresse school of baseball' in southern california which is where i sent the cards.

here's the tally:
