Okay everyone says that Tony Curtis doesn't sign TTM anymore and all I can say is BULL. The reason being not only have I received an email from his personal assistant but I have talked to Mr. Curtis in person on the phone (He called me) and from his own lips he said he signs everything that comes across his desk. Now to be fare it is nice to add a donation even a small one to help his Shiloh Horse Sanctuary because he appreciates everything sent. He is probably one of the best signers out there.

Sorry I had to get that off of my chest and by the way the man just turned 85 and his signature is going to have some changes here and there especially if he has been signing for a long time. I have seen autographs go from beautiful things to a scribble in a matter of hours.

Saturday brought me through the mail my 1966 Topps card of former relief pitcher, Terry Fox, signed beautifully in blue ink pen. Over 7 seasons, Terry played for the Braves, Tigers, and Phillies, amassing a 29-19 record, with 59 saves, and a sparkling 2.99 ERA. He was in the top 5 in the American League in saves in 1961 and 1962.

robert, anyluck finding anything with tommy lasorda? I have two one ball and one on texas roadhouse stationary which he was a chairman of the board or a board member. but he was a great signer. Also i was driving home A week ago and i saw some boxes on the side of the road. I turned the corner to go back and see what they were. I pulled into a drive along side five boxes and an album of ball cards. everything , basketball, foot ball, base ball and hockey. when i went through i found some great cards including four signed ball cards. I hit pay dirt, if you having body you are looking for in a card let me know i will checkm the boxes and let you know. also received a great signed 8x10 color of les stroud from survivorman.

what is the current rate of return postage most are using on there SASE.

Jun 23, 2010
Chris Klamer

I usually use three .44 stamps. But I also send at least 2 8 X 10 photos and thy are at least 10mil thick so they are pretty heavy and I ask for a donation if possible and that usually covers most of the cost.

But if I am sending to a venue like on Broadway I may even add another stamp since the donations are normally playbills and those add a little more weight. But it all depends on what you are sending and what you expect back.

When I'm sending an item out for an autograph, I usually contact the person first to see if they are willing to sign. If I get a return that says to go ahead and send my item I send everything priority mail with a return SASE priority mail item and I do confirmation both ways. I won't do it for a card or an 8x10 but will do it when sending out a mini helmet or an item that already has been signed by others.

Sending a note first has been a godsend and sometimes I get an extra autograph by the recipient signing the return note.

Shane, I have been doing well with just a 44 cent stamp. Of course, I only send out index cards or trading cards. I recently used UPS to send off for an autograph of Steve Carlton on a beautiful 11x14 picture of 300 game winners in baseball history, and I used a thick bubble envelope to send and have it returned in, and used an SASE with confirmation and everything. It got back to me OK, but was beat to death!! I am thankful I used an 11x14 toploader for extra protection. That is the only thing that saved that picture from being completely destroyed. I even put "Pictures - Do Not Bend" on the envelopes. Next time, I think I will use a nice size box to ship it in to the next person to sign it.

I have only sent one picture out that was signed by someone else and the only reason I even did that one was because I knew they were regular signers and I would get it back and I also had an extra signed picture by that person just in case.
Well after a very slow two weeks. I had only received one envelope in 2 weeks. I received two on Wednesday and they were packed.
I received Angie Dickinson and she signed all of her Police Woman DVD covers from the set and I had sent Martin Sheen a request for Charlie Sheen and also added a photo for him to sign for a donation to my charity and not only did he return that picture but he gave me an extra 4 pictures from him three for the charity and one extra for me. SWEET!
Now not only did I get those but Charlie also signed the pictures I mailed for him so a really nice return and I really didn't expect Charlie's.
I also recently got an envelope from Craig Ferguson.

I hate when I ask them to sign something for the my charity and they personalize everything to me and then it's difficult to use for an auction. Right now I almost have an entire 9 X 12 filled with donations and that doesn't count the signed scripts, books, playbills and other items that have been sent. I hope to have Heritage do an auction for us soon and hopefully they can find someone to donate their time and expertise to authenticate the items. If I am not sure about an item I didn't add it to the donations but most are very real.
