It's hard to find cards that are better suited for an autograph. Most, if not all, of these autographs were obtained TTM (through the mail).

As of the end of the 2022 season, there have been 253 pitchers who have thrown a complete game no-hitter in the regular season or post-season in the major leagues. 35 of them have thrown more than one no-hitter during their career, and 23 have pitched a perfect game.

This is my baseball card and postcard collection of autographs from these individuals, including a few that have signed more than one item. (I've included an autograph at the end of the list that doesn't quite meet the criteria I have established above, but it is hard not to include it given the special feat this pitcher accomplished.)

The 1985 Kansas City Royals had a regular season record of 91-71 and came back from 3-1 deficits (in games) against both the Toronto Blue Jays in the ALCS and St. Louis Cardinals in the World Series -- the only team to ever have accomplished that feat.

This is a collection of autographs obtained from members of the world champions who played in the 1985 World Series and had a Topps card from that year showing them as a Royal. In total, there are 21 possible players if you include Topps Traded.

The 1969 season was the first for the franchise, and the team finished 69-93 and fourth in the American League West Division. Seven short years later, the Royals represented the West Division in the ALCS against the New York Yankees.

My focus for this set is players that appear as a Royal on their baseball cards and actually played for the team during 1969. Exceptions have been made on a case by case basis for players that made special contributions to the team (e.g., Lou Piniella - AL Rookie of the Year).
