Yesterday we had our signings with Bucky Dent, Moose Skowron and Bobby Richardson. These posts are definitely becoming somewhat repetitive (the risk I run by actually blogging every day) as it is basically the same routine each day. The Yankee greats come here to sign seat backs- a few different variations. After the private session each player has a store appearance or some sort of event. That has become the daily norm here over the past week ...and there are still a few more days of it. I must say though that the seat backs are coming out unbelievable. When all is said and done these pieces will undoubtedly rank up there with the greatest projects I have ever been involved in. I am extremely proud of the efforts so far on this and the items will look even better as they start to fill up each day. It is actually not as easy as it sounds to expedite this process. Aside from one edition where every single Yankee legend is signing the seat back (and including his Yankee Stadium years) there are several other projects (77-78 team, 61 team) as well as small limited quantities of individually signed backs (with and without some really incredible inscriptions). On top of that is where it gets a little tricky... certain customers have requested specific autographs on their seat backs. This was something that had to be ordered before the process began as to assure all the names they wanted sign them. There are some pretty strange combinations of players and it has become quite a mammoth task keeping these in order.
Anyway tomorrow I am taking a break from seat backs, but not the Yankees, as Brett Gardner will be appearaing at Last Licks Manhattan following the Tigers/Yankees game. As I have said over the past few months Brett's "Inside the Park HR" photo has become a staple piece here so, aside from what will assuredly be a great public signing, I have a great opportunity to get more of these pieces (as it has been virtually impossible to keep in stock).
Hope to see you there. Enjoy the weekend!
