    Got a RTS from Joyce Walker today. I sent it to the school where she was the head girls basketball caoch. The school returned my items in my sase with my original envelope that some one had alread written "Return to sender" on. I don't really understand why they had to waste me sase when the had already written on my original envelope. Jerks!

    Anyway, I did get 4 of 4 from Joel Otto so the last mailday of the week wasn't a total wash.

    Came home to a soggy mailday. Luckily, nothing was damaged.

    First, I received a big manilla envelope from Auburn University. Enlosed was my sase and trading card unsigned with a letter of explaination. I guess their policy states that they aren't allowed to signed mailed in items. So they sent me 2 sweet signed 8x10s of Gene Chizik and Gus Malzahn!

    Secondly, Steve Garvey signed my Michigan State card and a Looney Tunes card for my son, Jakob! Nice mailday!

    Got a TOUGH one in the mail today, in the form of former Miami Dolphin safety Glenn Blackwood. Glenn teamed with his brother Lyle, Bob Baumhower, Bill Barnett, Kim Bokamper, Charles Bowser, Doug Betters, and Bob Brudzinski, in 1982 to form the famous "Killer B's" defense that lead the Dolphins all the way to the AFC Championship and Super Bowl XVII. Lyle and Glenn were also given the nickname the "Bruise Brothers," as they were very heavy hitters.

  • Jeffery Kite

    Forgot to mention, the Blackwood took 1,038 days!!!! So thankful he chose to write me back. I'll certainly treasure this one.

  • Robert Babb

  • Jeffery Kite

    I just simply could not help myself. Everytime I pass by a box of these cards at a card show, I just simply have to have them. I promised myself no more projects until I finish one, but I gave into temptation. Started sending out requests from the 1989 Collegiate Collection Auburn University set this week, and got back my first response: Don Anderson. Don was a defensive back for the Tigers on their 1983 SEC Championship team that went 11-1 and beat Michigan in the Sugar Bowl.

  • Russ Robinson

    Today, I got a RTS from Julie Olkowski. I sent it c/o Northwestern University. They sent it back and wrote "Julie O left in 2004" on it. Maybe they should update their website then!

    Sweet score on that Mike Rozier, Bob! He was one of my favorite Falcons players growing up. Only played with us for 2 seasons in 1990 and 1991, but he was fun to watch.

  • Adam Richard Utz

    Today, I got my Latest Amazon purchase Nicky Anosike's autographed card from her rookie year in the WNBA  with the Minnesota Lynx and yesterday I got my latest Listia win Jason Kubel 143/399 

  • Robert Babb

    thanks jeffrey!

  • Jeffery Kite

    Today, the 'Ole Professor scored 2 of 2. I usually don't send out 2 at a time, but if I have a professional sports team card to go along with a players college card, I typically give it a go to see what happens. Got the autograph of former Auburn Tiger and Dallas Cowboy great, Tommie Agee. Tommie was a major part of Auburn's 1983 SEC championship team, and the Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl XXVII and XVIII championship teams.

  • Robert Babb

    very cool professor!

  • Russ Robinson

    Great stuff Professor! I love those Collegiate Collection cards! I also like to include one of their pro cards along with the college one!

  • Jeffery Kite

    Thanks, Bob and Russ! I just can't help myself when I see a box for sale! I'll put a set together, and then take the duplicates and see if I can get an autograph. These guys love to reminisce about their college days and get so excited to hear from people who remember them.

  • Robert Babb

    I got a signed postcard from andrew lincoln from the walking dead series.

  • Russ Robinson

    Great mailday yesterday, but not without disappointments.

    First, I wrote to Si Robertson of Duck Dynasty. They sent back my stuff unsigned with a pre-print, catalog, and form letter stating why they can't sign. The bright side of this is that they didn't waste my sase. I also got a RTS for another address that I found for Perry Saturn. Guess I'll give up trying to get that guy ttm. The last disappointment came from Chris Pronger. Although he did sign 2 of the 3 cards that I sent, he didn't signed the one that I really wanted or return it! That's why you never send anything that you can't afford to lose. Other suuccesses came from Al Pedersen,Fernando Perez, Miguel Cairo, Dawn Wells, Don Beaupre, and Johnny Rutherford.

  • Russ Robinson

    I got a couple of nice replies to finish out the mail week.
    First, voice actor, Rob Paulsen signed 4 of 4 for me and my son, Jakob.
    Next, legendary Utah Jazz center, Mark Eaton signed 3 of 3.

  • Russ Robinson

  • Jeffery Kite

    Nice returns, guys! It's been super quiet in my mailbox. Hoping all that'll change tomorrow and this weekend!

  • Robert Babb

    It has been  quite my way as well jeffrey!  I hope they pick up for everybody soon!

  • Jeffery Kite

    Finally got one! Today's mail brought me the autograph of R.B. (Brian) Atkins, former flanker for Auburn University from 1977-1980. Auburn was a triple option team back in those days, so R. B. only recorded 7 catches for 105 yards in his career. However, his legendary status was built as a tenacious downfield blocker who sprung Joe Cribbs and James Brooks for many of their historic long runs. Today, he is the proud owner of R.B. Atkins & Associates in Bessemer, AL.

  • Robert Babb

    I got an awsome autograph picture ttm from actress leslie anne down.

  • Jeffery Kite

    Been a while since my last baseball TTM success. The 'Ole Professor's mail today had a nice one from Andy Ashby. Andy was a 2-time National League All-Star in 1998 and 1999 with the Padres, and was a key member of their 1998 National League Championship team. On June 15, 1991, as a rookie, he became the 24th pitcher ever to strick out 3 batters on 9 pitches.

  • Russ Robinson

    Hi all! I've been getting some sweet ttms this weekend, but my wife has our camera in CT! I'll get them posted for you all on Monday!

  • Jeffery Kite

    Great returns everyone! When I first joined AML! when this site first launched, the first autograph I remember getting using this site was Ed Asner. Thanks for the memories, Bob!

    Today, I got 2 really nice autographs, one I have been wanting since 1991! First, I got the autograph of former Georgia Tech tennis star, and current University of Florida men's tennis coach, Bryan Shelton. As an 19 year old, he won the U.S. Amateur Tennis championship, and was one of the top doubles players in the ACC in the mid 1980's. Bryan was named an All-American in 1988, and came within 1 match of capturing the 1992 French Open mixed doubles title with Lori McNeil when they lost in the championship match to Todd Woodbridge and Arantxa Sanchez Vicario. He would later coach the Georgia Tech women's tennis team to the 2007 NCAA National Championship.

    Then, the long awaited one. Eddie Anderson is LEGEND in the annals of football in the state of Georgia. He was a star for Warner Robins High School in the early 1980's, which at the time was one of the top high school football programs in the United States. He went on to Fort Valley State University, where he would amass 26 career interceptions in just 4 years, and win the SIAC Defensive Player of the Year award. He was drafted by the Seahawks in 1986, and would land with the Raiders in 1987, with whom he would play for until he retired in 1998. While with the Raiders, he would set a team record with a 102-yard interception return for a touchdown in 1992. I use to read about this guy as a kid in the Macon Telegraph on Sunday mornings, from his high school days, all the way through the pros, and always wanted his autograph on the football card I got of him in 1991. Now I have it. So grateful.
