Got a success from Maria Brill today! I sent her a Letter, SASE, 2 4x6's, & Topps ROTS WV Card #25. She signed the WV card but kept the 4x6's. She did send a typed letter answering my questions though! Very Happy!

Yesterday I received my care package from Darth Skel with my autographs from C4 so I thought I'd share. I couldn't be happier!

Here's the first bunch...

And the next bunch...

 

[Sarasotarockstr]

Last but not least...Watto.

Everyone added nice inscriptions for the most part - always good to get the "rebel scum" mention from Barrie and the "It's a trap" from Rose. Also happy to get Anthony Forrest to sign with the trooper line and who doesn't love "Beast wishes" from Yakface.

By the way - I'm in the process of scanning my SW autos at work over the next days and weeks. I'm setting up a whole new website to show off the collection and to track successes that will work better than the blog site I used before.

 

[ryboflavin72]

thats freakin awesome congrats on some beauties,especially laparimeter(spelling?). rock on.

 

[RYAN-J]

WOW! Those really are something! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the comments. All props should go to Skel for helping me out with the signatures. Crawford aka Yakface in particular I've wanted a LONG time so I was thrilled to add him to the collection along with some of the rarer signers appearing (Anthony Forrest, Nina Fallon, etc.)

With the C4 and SW Weekends autographs of the last week, my Star Wars signed item count is now 209 items with a total of 222 signatures.

I have 899 signed items in the total autograph collection, which means that with the signatures I'm getting this weekend at SW Weekends I'll break 900. Fun stuff - until I try to find places to store them all!

Just received some signed index cards and a postcard from Frank Ordaz - a modelmaker/matte artist for ROTJ.

 

[SWfan]

I got a big surprise in the mail yesterday! A signed photo from Samuel L. Jackson! The surprise part is that I didn't even send for it! It just showed up!

I did send some cards to Mr. Jackson earlier this year but got them back with a note saying he doesn't sign cards. That was over a month ago.

 

[darthskellington]

And the next bunch...

Glad you like your photos Bret! In case I wasn't clear before....Tim Rose said that the Mon Cal on the far left is Gerald Home.

Nothing Star Wars related today, but I got signed photos from Dame Judi Dench, Jack Hanna, Chef Gordon Ramsay, and Microsoft Executive Steven Ballmer.

They were all via email - message me if you want an address.

 

[Matt]

Had a reply from Sam Jackson today, or not. I received my items back unsigned with a printed black and white photo. I'll try again soon.
Has anyone had a recent success with a different address?

Don't waste your time with him. You'll either get a preprint or a secritarial from him.

 

[Matt]

Fair enough!
Cheers.

Coming home from SW Weekends, I was happy to have some envelopes waiting for me. No Star Wars successes - but I got my photos back signed from director Milos Forman (mailed 3/21/07) and actor Dan Aykroyd (mailed 9/22/06!). Also got a preprint from Morgan Freeman.
