[RYAN-J]

Got a surprise success from ‘Back to the Future’ Actress Lea Thompson today!! She signed both of my Custom 4x6 index cards (Back To The future III & Dennis the Menace) as well as personalized and signed my two 4x6 BTTF Photos And also filled out one side of my Q&A Card! I asked her is there was talk of a possible BTTF 4, and she replied: NO. But still very happy with this success!

Oh man! What a great way to wrap up my week! Went out to the mailbox and inside were my items from Actor Wentworth Miller!!! He personalized and signed two Prison break photos for me and personalized and signed two Prison break photos for my good friend Brooke Miller who lives over in Australia!! Extremely happy!! & I’m sure my friend will be too as she’s a HUGE fan of Wentworth and had no idea that I wrote him for her. LOL! Thanks a million Wentworth!

Received my Bye-Bye Birdie cast signed Playbill today!! Was quite excited to get this one as the play finished up a couple of weeks ago. There was like 3 reports of playbills TTM when the show first opened, but then they stopped and we all thought they weren’t sending them out anymore. Then a few days ago fans started getting them back again! The original Playbills had a John Stamos autograph (Which was the main reason I wrote for one) & pretty much all 36 cast members signatures, but these recent ones do not include a John Stomas and mine was only signed by 28/36 cast members: Allie Trimm, Allison Strong, Catherine Blades, Colleen Fitzpatrick, David McDonald, Dee Hoty, Emma Rowley, Jayne Houdyshell, JC Montgomery, Jillian Mueller, Jim Walton, Matt Doyle?, Natalie Hill, Nina Hennessey, Patty Goble, Paul Pilcz, Paula Leggett Chase, Robert Hager, Timothy Shew, Todd Gearhart & Eight unidentifiable signatures. (Note to Broadway: have cast members take a signature writing course before signing playbills in the future. Will make my task much easier. Lol.) So not quite the success I was hoping for, but I’m still VERY happy that they took the time to answer my request!!

Well received a reply from Actor Jack Black today, but I’m thinking that my photo may have been auto-penned instead of Jack actually signing it. I was really excited at first, but when looking at another success someone got yesterday the autograph appears to be an exact replica of the other with no distinguishable differences between them. I looked for the tiniest detail but there was none. Disappointed with this success. I thought he signed authentically TTM. I included a total of three 4x6 photos and a custom made card, thankfully the others were sent back unsigned so if I meet him In-person I have other photos on hand.

Please feel free to voice your opinion on the signed photo. I’d love to hear what you guys think. Authentic? Or Auto-penned?

What a fantastic way to start off my month of February! Received a response from legendary country music artist Charlie Daniels!! I sent him an E-mail on January 18th and today he kindly sent two 8x10 photos that were personalized and signed for me and my sister Sara just as I requested. Were both HUGE fans of his ‘The Devil Went Down To Georgia’ song. Thanks so much Charlie! If you get time, please check out his website www.charliedaniels.com. It’s got loads of info on him and his career. Take a look at his extensive Chronology page which tells you how he got started in 1936 & what he’s done all the way to up 2008! Pretty Impressive!

Received a nice reply from Country singer Brad Paisley today!! He signed both of my 4x6 photos. I was hoping he’d personalize them but he didn’t. I also sent him two very cool 4x6 custom index cards that I took a lot of time making, but he returned those unsigned. Kinda Dissapointed, but I’m happy he took the time to reply to my request and sign my other items! Thanks Brad!

Ha Ha! My dry spell is officially over for now. Received a FULL Cast-Signed Playbill from the Broadway show “Lend me a Tenor” today!! Am very happy with this one as it features a couple of my favorite actors; Tony Shalhoub who is probably most known for his role in the TV show MONK & Actor Justin Bartha who played Riley Poole in the National Treasure films. Complete list of signers include:

Anthony LaPaglia, Tony Shalhoub, Justin Bartha, Jan Maxwell, Brooke Adams, Mary Catherine Garrison, Jennifer Laura Thompson, Jay Klaitz, Jessie Austrian, Tony Carlin, Donna English & Brian Sears.

This Playbill had a lot of good articles in it this time, including ‘A day in the life of Abigail Breslin’ who is currently doing ‘The Miracle Worker’ play which sadly will be closing on Sunday April 4th due to low ticket sales.

Received a cast-signed Playbill back from “The Miracle Worker” Broadway show, but it’s not quite what I was expecting when I originally sent my request. It starred teen Actress Abigail Breslin, Matthew Modine, Allison Pill & Jennifer Morrison as the main cast. Sadly, Ticket sales did poorly at the box office and the production was shut down last week. I was hoping for signed playbill featuring the main cast, but instead got one signed by one of the lead members (Jennifer Morrison) a couple of the minor cast (Elizabeth Franz, Tobias Segal, Michael Cummings, Yvette Ganier & Lance Chantiles-Wertz) & a couple of the understudies (Aru Banks & Kyra Ynez Siegel). Aru signed mine twice, once one the front cover and one by his photo on the cast sheet inside.

All in All I’m happy to have it, but wished the main cast had signed it too as there what the whole production is about, especially Abigail and Allison who appear on the cover!
