Autographed Card A-Z John to Jones

When I got back into collecting five or so years ago one of the things that excited me was the availability of autographed cards.  Perhaps I went a little overboard but I think I picked up some nice cards.  This will be an A-Z series of posts with varying numbers of cards.

Tommy is 26th on the all-time wins list with 288.

Dave was part of the great Orioles teams of the 60's and 70's.

This series is a lot of fun.  The signature is great.  Current wisdom is that the picture is of former Brewer and Blue Jay Tim Johnson.

Cleon hit .340 for the 1969 Miracle Mets.

 2005 Topps All-Time Fan Favorites #FFA-CJ

Jones won 22 games and the NL Cy Young award in 1976.  The cover led me to check his splits for the year.  He went 16-3 in his first 21 starts (thus the headline).  Unfortunately he trailed off in the second half going just 6-11 in the next 19.  One of my favorite sets.
