Hall of Famer and Detroit Tiger Great Al Kaline signed this 1967 Topps Baseball card during Spring Training 2009 in Lakeland, FL. Mr. Kaline arrives at the ballpark in Lakeland around 8:30am each morning during Spring Training and on March 3rd he was right on time. There was about a dozen collectors waiting for him and he graciously signed one item per person.
As you can see, he signed this with a blue sharpie and has a beautiful signature. This card is #30 in the set and is one of the 434 different autographs I have collected so far. If you have any 1967 Topps autographed cards, please let me know, as I might need them to further my collection.
