    Darrel,

    Good luck with the move and the mail!

  • Dawn Darst Reuter

    Received back the magazine cover I sent to Goldie Hawn back in August.  She signed and inscribed it to my family. 

    (love how the mailman jammed it in our mailbox when it clearly said "Do Not Bend" all over it. It seems to be ok however.)

  • Robert Babb

  • Darrel Wayne Cray

    ok well today turned out to be the ice breaker, i sent off two small color prints to James earl jones  at the beginning of february, i sent them to the golden theatre where he was performing driving miss daisy with ms. redgrave. i received both signed in  the mail today , and as usual, they stuffed them into the mail box, lucky for me they were small enough that they were not damaged.
  • Robert Babb

    Spring training ttm from New York Yankees outfielder Curtis Granderson! He didn't sign my TNA wrestling card, but he did send a signed Yankees card and I got my wrestling card back! Real happy with this one!
  • Jorge Marin

    I got an awesome signed panoramic photo of Winter Olympic and gold medal winner Lindsey Vonn.
  • Dawn Darst Reuter

    Darrel, I got James Earl Jones' autograph many years ago through the mail.  Nice that he took the time to sign both of yours!   I've had mailmen literally fold the envelopes in half (hence photos with creases down the middle) and I've actually had mailmen knock on my door and hand them to me so you never know.
  • Jeffery Kite

    Received Johnny Lujack, the 1947 Heisman Trophy winning quarterback for Notre Dame, in the mail today. He signed for me his 1990 Notre Dame Collegiate Collections card. Johnny had one of, if not THE most, spectacular college football careers ever. He quarterbacked Notre Dame to 3 National Championships, and even served our country in World War II in between.

    sorry i am so slow posting my successes to the web site folks, the move and my back are keeping down and slow. this is day two of the move, the wife had to work again and the kids well they are kids so i am basically doing it myself. the weather has not co-operated with us at all. rain all weekend so far. that and i fell off the tail gate of the truck, owwwww . captain clumsy strikes again. i tell you , gravity sucks!

    dawn i had tried for many years to get mr jones to sign for me but no luck. i actually found out that he was doing driving miss daisy on broadway and sent a letter and two 3x5 inch photos that i printed off and about a month later i received the envelope i sent with them back. but, like an idiot, i forgot to mark it do not bend. lucky for me he only sent the two pictures back that i sent signed, because the mail man shoved them in the box with out any regard. i am in a new neighborhood and a new mail person so we will see.

     

  • Dawn Darst Reuter

    Darrel,  sorry to hear about your fall, moving sucks! lol  

    Good luck with the new mailman.  Our route is a training route for the city so we constantly get new mailmen and about twice a month I get other folks mail or folks are bringing mail to me that they received.  I wonder sometimes how many of my photos ended up in someone elses mailbox!

  • Chris Klamer

    It was funny when everyone was being told last year that Mr. Jones wouldn't be signing until May 2010 because he was in London doing a play with Phylicia Rashad I decided to find out where and mailed them both to the venue in London. I ended up receiving both back unbent and all signed. He is a really fantastic signer.

    Just received Yvonne Strahovski's autograph from Chuck television show on Saturday and it only took from 02/04/2010 until 03/05/2011. So I guess it's true don't give up they may eventually show up.

  • Russ Robinson

    I got back a success from Lucky Cannon today. I wasn't so lucky though as he signed the back of his trading card. So, this one is up for sale or trade if anyone is interested.
  • Robert Babb

    I got autographs from carol burnett and mark christopher lawrence who plays big mike on my favorite show chuck!
  • Mark Johnson

    I received an auto from Ashley Eckstein today. It took almost 6 months.
  • Robert Babb

    I received a autograph picture of davy jones that i purchased off of his website. He even sent me a few extras and signed the envelope as well. Thanks Mr. Jones! You and the monkees rule!
  • Russ Robinson

    I got a sweet return form Larraine Newman today! This one was gone a while as it had a 42 cent stamp on it! I'm actually surprised that the P.O. didn't make me pay the extra 2 cents! LOL!

    I also received a signed index card of Tara Strong from my good buddy Bob! Thanks Bob!

  • Steve Cyrkin, Admin

    I've met Larraine on several occasions. Melanie Chartoff is a friend, and she and Larraine are very close. Larraine is a great person and wonderful with fans. Between her kids and her job she's really busy, so it's not a surprise it took a while to get it back.
  • Russ Robinson

    I can imagine that she is busy! She is a very talented lady and I am stoked to get this one back!
  • Robert Babb

    Your welcome russ! Maybe their is hope still for my response from larraine newman. I did get a response from melanie chartoff when she wrote for autograph magazine.
  • Darrel Wayne Cray

    I received back my "The Official Mickey Mouse Club Book" today from Mouseketeer Mary Espinosa. I had sent it to her last summer to obtain her autograph. When she received it, she informed me that she had been invited, along with several other Mouseketeers, to attend a D23 event at Disneyland in September 2010 & offered to obtain Sherry Alberoni's and Don Grady's autographs in the book for me. She and Don became friends after   they met for the Mouseketeers 50th anniversary reunion 5 years ago. She was finally able to get him to sign last week, as they have both been very busy. That's why it's taken so long to receive the book back. I now have 18 signatures throughout the book, including the authors.
  • Darrel Wayne Cray

    well as i said i am exstatic about this new house, the mail lady is now my best freind, well as long as she keeps bringing me the autographs, like, today, got a standerd envelope with no name on it except mine, when i open it i received a nice leeter and a personalized and signed photo of jackie collins. the letter was from her personal assistant but did say that the picture was personally signed by jackie so yayyyyyyy! hope everyone else is having good luck. i have another fifty letters going out over thye next two weeks,

  • Robert Babb

    I got a return to sender from ron killings. Congrats to russ, darrel, and the many others on their ttm successes!
  • Jorge Marin

    Today I received back the 2 unsigned items that I sent to Yogi Berra, which he added a small flyer along with my unsigned items asking $100 bucks for his autograph. I'll be honest, I was pretty shocked and disappointed that he was asking for that kind of money. I respect him but $100 is pretty steep for me.
  • Robert Babb

    Today i got autographs ttm from danielle spencer who used to play on whats happening and elinor donohue who played on father knows best and andy griffith. I also got my order from elmers nostalgia consisting of autographs of bryan hyland, bobby lewis, and trini lopez. Danielle Spencer also sent me a nice note that she has a book coming out.
